Evaluation

Frame of Mind is a free-to-play puzzle game created by a six-person student team at Media Design School in New Zealand. It launched on January 18, 2021 as a self-contained experience with 15+ puzzles and 30+ minutes of gameplay. The store description presents a fixed, complete package with no mention of future updates, DLC, or ongoing content development. The only developer news post (January 25, 2022) is an announcement for an entirely separate game called Zeitgeist — it is not a content update for Frame of Mind itself. There are no DLC listings, no roadmap, no patch history, and no developer statements indicating any further development of this game. Given its origins as a student project with a clearly scoped feature set, Frame of Mind launched as a finished product and has received no post-launch content of its own.
