Mind MGMT

Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage “Game” is a deeply thematic hidden-movement and deduction board game based on Matt Kindt’s acclaimed comic series. It recreates a world where psychic agents, shadowy organizations, and secret missions collide in a tense battle of wits. Designed for 1–5 players, the game pits one player as the elusive Mind MGMT Recruiter, moving secretly across the city to gather new psychic recruits, while the opposing players act as Rogue Agents, using logic, deduction, and teamwork to uncover and capture the Recruiter before time runs out.

At the core of the gameplay is the secret-movement mechanic. The Recruiter travels across a map—recording their locations behind a screen—visiting spaces that match hidden “feature cards” and placing recruits. Meanwhile, Rogue Agents investigate the city block by block, questioning the Recruiter about features, placing clue markers, and slowly piecing together the Recruiter’s path. Every decision matters: a single clue can change the entire direction of the investigation.

The tension builds each round as Agents narrow down possibilities, while the Recruiter works to mislead, evade, or block their pursuit using special psychic abilities and the immortal bodyguards. The game is asymmetric but balanced, creating a thrilling chase where each side feels powerful in different ways.

One of the game’s most unique features is the SHIFT System—14 sealed narrative modules that unlock only after the winning side’s opponent loses a game. Each module adds new rules, characters, powers, and mini-comic stories, gradually evolving gameplay over many sessions. This ensures continuous freshness, replayability, and a sense of discovery that few board games offer.

With striking art from Matt Kindt, clever mechanics, and a world filled with intrigue and psychic mystery, Mind MGMT delivers an immersive experience that rewards strategic thinking, teamwork, and the thrill of deduction. Whether played competitively or using the included solo/co-op app, it offers a rich, cinematic feel that keeps players coming back.
