I love first-person puzzle games. Things like The Talos Principle, Portal, and a whole host of other games have captivated my imagination for years now. Now, a new contender is debuting a demo of their first project.

At the all-digital Endix Expo, Red Hog Studio is debuting a demo of Project ReMind ahead of its launch next year. While we don’t have a release date or window, we know it is coming to PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms. Here is what the press release says about Project ReMind and its demo:

“Independent developer Red Hog Studio is proud to premiere the first public demo of its upcoming story-driven first-person puzzle adventure, Project ReMind, ahead of its launch next year on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox platforms, with VR versions to follow. Available on Steam as part of Endix Expo November 6th-8th, this demo introduces players to a series of puzzles as they dive into the player’s memories. Those who played Project ReMind at gamescom will be delighted to see that this entirely reworks the tutorial area into something completely fresh!

In Project ReMind, you play as the creator of the world’s first Artificial Consciousness. It woke up, said goodbye, and vanished. You’ve rebuilt it again and again, and every time it disappears with no explanation. Now you must search your memories for a reason… only [to] find your consciousness has been altered by something not quite human.

Interact with complex devices, forgotten terminals, and machines that outlived their makers to unveil the connection between you and the unknown presence haunting your mind. Every puzzle you solve restores a fragment of your shattered memories, every mechanism hides a piece of the truth, and every answer unveils a deeper question as you plunge depths [sic] of your artificially altered mind.

Explore dreamlike environments that shift between decades, from the dawn of the 22nd century to a future where technology remembers what humanity has forgotten. The images and echoes of a long-forgotten past will guide you toward understanding why you’re here, but remember: Nothing is as it seems…”

While the Endix Expo has finished, this reveal is still important, as it highlights how far the game has come since Gamescom. Also, Francesco Sapio, Founder & CEO at Red Hog Studio, commented on the reveal, stating: “Project ReMind is our love letter to the golden era of science fiction, when it used technology to explore timeless questions of the human condition.

With Project ReMind, we wanted to create something wondrous and thought-provoking. It’s wondrous, scary, beautiful, and thought-provoking. We hope this demo piques your interest at the mysteries that await in the full game!”

As someone curious about Project ReMind, I hope that 2027 brings a few more reveals and announcements. We still don’t have a release date, but it definitely looks like the game is coming along nicely. We wish Red Hog Studio luck with the continued development.
