The story is set in Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp, a remote US government training facility under the guise of a children's summer camp. The area was hit centuries ago by a meteor made of psitanium (a fictional element that can grant psychic powers or strengthen existing powers), creating a huge crater. The psitanium affected the local wildlife, giving them limited psychic powers, such as bears with the ability to attack with telekinetic claws and cougars with pyrokinesis. The Native Americans of the area called psitanium "whispering rock", which they used to build arrowheads. When settlers began inhabiting the region, the psychoactive properties of the meteor slowly drove them insane. An asylum was built to house the afflicted, but within fifteen years the asylum had more residents than the town did. The government relocated the remaining inhabitants and flooded the crater to prevent further settlement, creating what is now Lake Oblongata. The asylum still stands but has fallen into disrepair.

A PSYCHIC
THROUGH THE
MINDS
AND
MADMEN.
There were
brains everywhere,
just not in the right heads. Something
evil came out of the lake and stole them all, leaving
everyone brainless but me. Astral projection. Telekinesis.
Levitation. Clairvoyance. An old man in my head who loves bacon.
These are some of the tools that will help me break into the
insane asylum and destroy the dark plot hatching there.
I'll have to jump inside one crazy head after
another, explore those twisted mental
landscapes, and smack around a whole
bunch of personal demons if I'm
going to save the world. Why?
Because I'm Raze And that's
what Psychonauts do.
