Metacritic Names The Worst Games Of 2025: MindsEye Takes The Absolute Anti-Lead

It seems Build a Rocket Boy has secured its place in history — though not in the way the studio likely hoped. According to Metacritic’s final scores, the single-player action game MindsEye became the worst title of 2025, earning just 37 out of 100 points. This is one of the lowest results of the past five years — and, frankly, not a surprising one.

The debut project from former GTA producer Leslie Benzies’ studio launched in June in catastrophic condition — to the point that Sony began issuing mass refunds. The last time something similar happened was during the troubled launch of Cyberpunk 2077, which already speaks for itself.

For now, Build a Rocket Boy isn’t giving up and continues trying to promote the disastrous MindsEye by any means possible. However, these attempts mostly spark ridicule among players — such as the recent trailer in which the developers all but beg viewers to play the game. We recently summarized the key reasons behind this major failure based on the latest investigative report by journalists.
