Evaluation

MINDHACK launched into Early Access on April 5, 2023, and has been steadily releasing new story chapters as free updates. Chapter 5 arrived on March 1, 2025, and Chapter 6 launched on February 5, 2026. The game remains in Early Access — it is explicitly marked as unfinished, with further chapters needed before a full release. The developer (VODKAdemo?) publishes detailed monthly progress reports, with the most recent posted on August 2, 2026. That update confirms Chapter 7 is well into production: the scenario is fully written (100%), game systems are 37% complete, and artwork is 40% done. The developer also notes the team is experimenting with new creative approaches and hints at sharing more details soon. Communication has been consistent and transparent throughout development, with no gaps or signs of distress. Chapter 7 is clearly on its way.

Evidence

About this game

ABOUT

MINDHACK is a text adventure game where you change evildoers into happy-go-lucky saints.

You are the “Doctor”, a genius hacker who can destroy minds with the power of programming.
Meet unique evildoers and hack their minds to rewrite them into happy people.
No matter how heinous they are, they’ll turn into docile sheep once they’ve been in your hands!
Enjoy the pleasure of destroying minds.

WORLD

The story of MINDHACK is set in a world based on both fantasy and our modern society. Meet characters with unique appearances and backgrounds, like a sea urchin who also happens to be a gang leader, a fanatic of a cult religion who believes that he’s a cabinet, a monster from outer space, and even a fatal glitch plotting the end of the world…!?
Hack such evildoers, rewrite their minds, and reform them into benign citizens!

STORY

You are the Doctor, whose duty is to remove BUGs: destructive impulses that hide within people’s souls. Along with a supercomputer and a security force, you fight day and night at an institution created solely to deal with these BUGs!
Will you be able to defeat the catastrophic BUG, the “FATAL ERROR”, before it destroys the world…!?

FEATURES

Interact with a unique cast of characters!
During the adventure portion, you will meet and interact with various evildoers in a dystopian world. All of the characters have unique and tricky personalities. The main character’s hands are always displayed on the game screen, embellishing your conversations with vibrant animation.

Type to change evildoers for good!
During the hacking portion, you will type out code to unlock an evildoer’s memories and explore their past. As you read through their memories, you may find that people aren’t as they seem…? After you understand who they really are, a typing sequence will begin in order to rewrite their mind. Type out keywords connected to their souls and turn them into flowers, changing the evildoer into a harmless and benign person!
