  • What is NEVERMIND?

    Nevermind is a psychological horror puzzle game that uses a heart rate sensor to challenge the player to stay calm in uncomfortable situations. It is an independent game designed by Erin Reynolds and is also her USC Interactive Media Thesis Project.

    Why does it look so cool?

    Maybe because you, my friend, have secretly dreamt of being a Neuroprober yourself. No worries, there are a lot of us Closet Neuroprobers around. We all dream of climbing into other people's minds, but you, my special friend, have a heart of gold. You're not in it for the fun or the gossip, you want to make a difference in people's lives while learning to deal with your own anxiety. The Neurostalgia Institute welcomes you to partake in this ground-breaking science of true healing!
