Description from the packaging.
Tune in, turn on, boot up.
Mind Mirror is an innovative, dynamic game bringing a whole new concept to "personality" software. Written by Dr. Timothy Leary, famous Harvard psychologist, author and lecturer, Mind Mirror combines the science of Leary's psychometric studies with his own inimitable wit and charm. Part tool, part game, and part philosopher on a disk, Mind Mirror is a provocative game perfect for parties or social gatherings like the popular board games Scruples or Trivial Pursuit.
The Rating Games.
Rate any person, place or concept with the numeric rating scales. Mind Mirror evaluates your ratings, gives a brief text analysis and plots your input on comparison charts called Mind Maps. You can even use the rating scales to create your own characters and personalities.
Try comparing yourself to your ideal self, yourself to a friend or loved one, even Reagan to Gorbachev. Be creative, have a partner rate you while you rate yourself... you'll be surprised at the differences.
Mind play and mind tools.
You can play the game using either Mind Play or Mind Tools. In Mind Play, applications are light hearted, allowing you explore topics and celebrities from areas like TV, films, athletics, and more. In Mind Tools, applications are somewhat more serious, focusing on Psychological Insight, Career Productivity, and Education.
Life Simulations.
Life Simulations gives you the opportunity to take any of the subjects or personalities used in the rating games on humorous, interactive text odysseys written by Dr. Leary.
You can play dozens of different life simulations in any of four psychological realms. For example, enter the realm of emotional insight and go back to kindergarten to face the class bully. Or try the realm of social interaction and spend an evening in a punk rock bar or a snooty bankers club.
