The bright flashing lights and rapidly moving visuals can feel intense and are best avoided for anybody suffering from epilepsy. You can tell that my general feelings are pretty positive, but that doesn't mean that Kid A Mnesia Exhibition doesn't have its drawbacks.
As a fan, it was just a joy to hear these songs stripped down and repurposed in brand-new ways two decades later. The hairs on the back on my neck stood up at the very start when Kid A album opener 'Everything In Its Right Place' beautifully weaved itself into the closing moments of the title track.
#KID A MNESIA EXHIBITION TROPHIES FULL#
I was pleased to see that deep cuts like 'The National Anthem' and 'In Limbo' were given the chance to grace the spotlight along with more obvious picks such as 'Pyramid Song' and 'How to Dissapear Completely.' These tracks aren't just played in full either, as select samples have been used in order to effectively blend them together. The music here is absolutely flawless, with it containing highlights from both the aforementioned albums as well as a handful of unreleased tracks. Another saw me gazing out towards a moving version of Kid A's mountain range cover artwork, whilst the concluding strings in Motion Picture Soundtrack rang out. In one room, for example, a wall of hand-drawn sketches flickered violently around me to mirror the music's change in tone. Here you walk between several different trippy set pieces and the accompanying music changes as you progress. If I had to compare Kid A Mnesia Exhibition to any other games on the market then I'd perhaps lump it into the same category as Gone Home and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture.
What we have here isn't a traditional game, but rather an interactive experience that delivers an extra visual dimension to these celebrated albums. Kid A Mnesia Exhibition originally was planned to be a physical installation, but it later shifted its focus to the digital realm due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The project is a celebration of two of the band's most acclaimed works - Kid A and Amnesia - which have now turned 21 and 20-years-old, respectively. Radiohead's Kid A Mnesia Exhibition is a pretty strange beast indeed.
