Game Classification

Gabrielle is a journalist investigating the apparent suicide of Vernida City's mayor. In an effort to uncover hidden information, she starts to take part on a scientific experiment using a device to explore the subconscious mind of people involved with the case.

Mind's Eye: Secrets Of The Forgotten is a hidden object game with adventure elements, where most of the time the objective is to find and click on all the items listed at the bottom of the screen, on locations filled with assorted paraphernalia. The screen can be scrolled sideways to show the full extension of the scene. Entries written in red only become available after performing an extra step, like opening a container to reveal them or using one of the inventory objects. Some of the items are stored in the inventory, that can be summoned by clicking the suitcase at the bottom-left corner, sliding upwards and covering the list to show its contents.

As in most graphic adventures, the inventory objects have to be dragged and dropped on logical portions of the scenery to perform an action or complete a task. The hint button is a camera at the bottom-right corner, showing the position of one of the required items when activated, but taking twenty seconds to recharge after use. Mini-games appear on separate screens, where the player has to manipulate a mechanism of some sort to solve the puzzle. [source:mobygames]
