Idol Minds is an American video game developer located in Westminster, Colorado.[1][2]

The company became widely known for their 2007 ragdoll physics-based game Pain, which was the most downloaded game on the PlayStation Network in 2009.[3]

They were co-developing Warrior's Lair with SCE San Diego Studio, a game which they used to demonstrate the abilities of the PlayStation Vita at its official presentation at E3 2011, one of the highlights of the launch.[4] but it was cancelled. Their first release is Rally Cross 2 for the PlayStation and their latest is Ratchet: Deadlocked HD for the PlayStation 3.
