State of Mind is free on GOG for the next 2 days. > **[State of Mind 90% off | GOG.COM](https://www.gog.com/en/game/state_of_mind)** > > When mind and machine become one – what will remain of humanity? Berlin, 2048 – The world Another one from Daedalic’s catalogue of post-traditional P&C adventures, with my one-word verdict [here](https://forums.thimbleweedpark.com/t/the-2018-what-are-we-playing-thread/2236/446). Thinking back, I guess I liked the story and graphics style, though I don’t think there’s much in the way of puzzles (although I dimly remember that some of them required some thought). For free, I fully recommend it, though. ---

> [@Goodmold](#): > > The reviews are mediocre and I did not like _Deponia_ by the same developers The game is good (but not excellent) and different to Deponia. It’s more serious and lacks the special comedy tone in Deponia. So it’s worth to give it a try, IMHO. I liked it. ---

> [@Goodmold](#): > > The reviews are mediocre and I did not like _Deponia_ That was the first P&C Adventure from Daedalic I played, and one of the first after Escape from Monkey Island. (The others included a couple of NDS titles, and the truly mediocre Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy). I thought it was pretty good at that time, but I would think the later Daedalic releases were better. Worth noting is that it isn’t a comedy adventure, but comes across a bit more serious. ---

Not sure if Daedalic is merely the publisher or the developer for all of these, which may explain the varying quality. One game that was (at least originally) published by Daedalic that I can wholeheartedly recommend is _Candle: The power of the flame_ - even if it isn’t a point ‘n’ click ---

> [@Sushi](#): > > Not sure if Daedalic is merely the publisher or the developer for all of these, Daedalic is a publisher _and_ a developer. “A New Beginning” was developed by them. If you would like to know which games are developed in-house and which are “only” published by them, you just have to consult the corresponding [Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daedalic_Entertainment) (and scroll down).
