Working from the shadows, MIND MGMT once used its psychically-powered agents to put a stop to global crises. However, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and MIND MGMT is now rotting from the inside. To tighten its iron grip on the world stage, MIND MGMT deploys covert operatives around the world to recruit other psychically-attuned individuals to their side. How can this enigmatic organization, hell bent on global domination, be defeated?

Thankfully, a few renegade agents have figured out that MIND MGMT has been compromised and have defected, turning their backs on the syndicate. They now use their own psychic abilities to prevent MIND MGMT from achieving its nefarious goals.

In MIND MGMT: The Psychic Espionage "Game.", one player controls the Recruiter for MIND MGMT and must scour the city for new recruits. They move around on a secret board, trying to visit locations that match one of their three randomly drawn recruitment cards. They can also use their four Immortals to protect locations from being exposed.

All other players control the rogue agents who must try to stop the Recruiter before it's too late! They move around the board asking the Recruiter whether they have ever been on a location with specific features. Based on how the Recruiter answers, the agents get to place dry-erase Mental Note tokens on the board to represent the information that they gained.

The Recruiter wins by either collecting twelve recruits or surviving sixteen turns. The rogue agents can win only be finding and then capturing MIND MGMT.

MIND MGMT: The Psychic Espionage "Game" introduces the SHIFT System, which has the losing side opening a sealed package which will give them extra abilities in their next game. Each package also comes with a brand new MIND MGMT mini-comic book written and illustrated by Matt Kindt that gives a bit of background on the contents of those packages. With the SHIFT System, nothing is ever destroyed or permanently changed, so you're free to continue playing as often as you'd like with whichever sealed packages you want once you've finished.
