About the Game

How does it feel to be a psychiatrist?


How do you face every day challenging yourself to rescue people taken hostage by their own minds? How do you treat a schizophrenic like Alice from Wonderland, a sociopath like Joker or a fascist criminal closely resembling Hitler? How will you react to a sudden attack from a patient that truly believes you’re a spy of an evil organization? What will you do if another patient takes you for his long-lost father and will try to catch up on all those years that passed? How do you talk to them all? What medicine should you give them? What procedures should you apply? How do you handle your own strained nerves that demand soothing using the same vices you try to defend your patients from?

Reality of a Psychiatric Hospital


PsychoSimulator will take you to a tense reality of a Psychiatric Hospital where you will understand the risk and responsibilities involved with psychiatric and psychotherapeutic work. Your choices will define both your and your patients’ fate. It won’t be easy and it won’t be boring, that’s certain!
See what the everyday life of a psychiatric hospital looks like, run various therapeutic sessions, prescribe medicine, carry out clinical procedures and collaborate with other personnel members (who can get symptoms just like your patients). But most of all: stay sane!

Talk and heal


Every patient has a story waiting to be discovered. Everyone needs an individual diagnosis and proper treatment. Talk to the patients and figure out their defense mechanisms to find the causes of their disorders. Ask the right questions, guess hidden motivations and skillfully provoke consideration.
