Unconscious Mind (engl.)

Description

In the early 1900s, Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud developed psychoanalysis, revolutionizing the study of the unconscious mind. Freud’s followers gathered every Wednesday in his apartment to explore psychology and dream symbolism, forming the Wednesday Psychological Society—the foundation of the global psychoanalytic movement. As a member of this society, your goal is to devise new therapeutic methods, establish your practice, attract clients, and become Freud’s most respected contemporary. To succeed, you’ll need to share insights, exchange ideas with peers, and publish your theories—all while enjoying plenty of coffee to stay energized. Unconscious Mind is a Euro-style game combining worker placement, engine building, multiple rondels, and cascading effects. On your turn, you place one or two Ideas (workers) on a central Meeting Table to perform various actions, such as adding tiles to your player board, drafting and playing cards, and navigating the city of Vienna. The position of your Ideas also determines the advancement of your rondel’s inkpot, triggering tile effects on your player board along a row or column. To treat clients and interpret dreams, you manage Insight resources using a multi-level dial. By exploring surface-level Manifest dreams and delving into deeper Latent dreams, these Insights help clients achieve catharsis. This is represented by lifting transparent layers from client cards, revealing their special abilities and end-game scoring potential. The game ends once the society’s reputation is firmly established. The player with the highest score becomes the most distinguished psychoanalyst in Freud’s circle.
