About this game

Work as psychoanalysts in Freud's Vienna — help patients process their anxieties through dream analysis and theoretical breakthroughs. Unconscious Mind is an engine-builder with worker placement wrapped in one of the most distinctive themes in modern gaming. Deeper than it looks, and remarkably thematic.
