The original game tackled these themes as well, but Psychonauts 2 really hones in on them in ways I won’t spoil. It’s hilarious to be sure as well, with plenty of laugh out loud moments, but I truly did not expect this game to affect me the way it did. It’s a beautiful story about the importance of empathy and kindness, both to yourself and others even if you might not agree with them. As I played and experienced the story though, I decided the only way to do this game and the wonderful people at Double Fine justice was to be more genuine, because that’s exactly what this game is.
#Maligula psychonauts manual
So, originally, I was going to write this review as a Psychonauts orientation manual or a response to the constant letters Razputin writes to True Psychic Tales magazine (which serves as a catch up video when you first boot the game). When he discovers the brainless body of his assigned mentor in one of the packages, the young psychic decides he needs to take matters into his own hands to discover the kidnapper, stop Maligula’s return, and prove himself to the Psychonauts once again. Instead, he’s nonchalantly inducted into the intern program, has his clothes stolen by the other interns, and assigned to a less than interesting position in the mail room.
Everyone that is, except for Raz, since he’s technically not an official Psychonaut yet. Arriving at the Mother Lobe, everyone gets back to business as usual while trying to find more clues. His mental conditioning is just too strong however, and they only escape with one clue: it has something to do with the Delugionists – a cult of people trying to resurrect the evil psychic Maligula, who drowned the country of Grulovia with her water powers. Loboto’s mind to figure out who hired him to kidnap Truman Zanato. Psychonauts 2 takes place shortly after Rhombus of Ruin, with Raz and company infiltrating Dr. We are the Psychonauts, welcome to the intern program, kid. Psychic secret agents dedicated to exploring the brain and helping the innocent overcome their mental blocks.
That’s where we come in – we face the demons other people can’t. Everything you could possibly imagine lies within this grey matter, even things you would rather not imagine. Within its curvaceous undulations hide wonders and terrors alike.
