This is a twisted platforming adventure from the minds of Tim Schafer and Double Fine Productions, putting you in control of a brain-projecting hero named Raz, who sets out to save the day from an unspeakable evil.

Just in case you haven’t checked it out yet, don’t worry – you can now do so for free.
Humble Bundle has announced that it is offering up the classic adventure on PC for no charge, but only for the next couple of days. All you need to do to acquire this game is put it in your shopping cart, sign in (it’s free) and check out. Then you can go and invade everyone’s mind however you see fit – even a fish’s!
Here’s the official game description, straight from Double Fine:
“This classic action/adventure platformer from acclaimed developers Double Fine Productions follows the story of a young psychic named Razputin. In his quest to join the Psychonauts–an elite group of international psychic secret agents–he breaks into their secret training facility: Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp. But this is no average psychic summer camp! A mysterious villain has kidnapped Raz’s fellow campers and stolen their brains. Now he must use his psychic powers of Telekinesis, Levitation, and most of all his ability to project himself into the minds of others–to find the loose noodles and keep them from falling into the wrong hands. Fight mental demons! Uncover hidden memories! Sort emotional baggage! Explore the fantastic realm of the inner mind! Join the Psychonauts!”
It’s definitely a great adventure that’s worth checking out, especially since you can get it for no charge. Again, though, it’s only for about the next 46 hours, so you might want to hurry. You can download the game here, and, while you’re on Humble’s site, be sure to check out its End of Summer sale as well, with several markdowns on hit titles.
You can also check out Psychonauts on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as a digital download, and it’s available on PlayStation 4 as well for only $9.99!
