Reception

Greg Costikyan reviewed The Mind Game in Ares Magazine #6 and commented that "it is a gripping, tense thriller to which these ideas form an intricate backdrop."[1]

Dave Pringle reviewed The Mind Game (as The Process) for Imagine magazine, and stated that "This is an angry book, full of ambition, frustration, and depictions of torrid sex. It is overwritten and overlong, as all Spinrad's novels are, but it packs an unavoidable punch."[2]
