Telekinesis and Telepathy in Stick it to the Man

Alongside the Puppeteer, where characters are made of wood and cloth, there was another, smaller title with a unique visual aesthetic based on materials: Stick it to the Man. It's a game in which all of the characters and objects are two dimensional and stickers play a big role in not only the visuals but also the gameplay. Your character, Ray, has woken up from a coma to find that he now has a weird pink arm coming out of his head that gives him several abilities. Ray can read people's thoughts with this new power, and he can also take ideas from people's heads and transplant them into the real world.

The demo was set in a loony bin, which probably means that Ray's revelations didn't go over well with his loved ones. Flicking the right analog stick at an object you can interact with will grab onto it. If you do this while holding the L or R button you'll read someone's thoughts. So the first thing I did was read the thoughts of my cell's guard, who was apparently really bored with the guard game. Next up I peeled off the wall of the cell next door to reveal a woman who was convinced she was a spider on the hunt. Specifically she was on the hunt for men with a fly face. That doesn't seem to be very common so I took the idea from her head and tossed it on the face of my guard buddy. Result? instant fly man. She took him away to do who knows what and I was free to roam the asylum...
