How hard can it be to find a shrouded figure in 42 square-blocks when you can tap into the minds of everyone around them to see where they've been and when? When that figure is a Mind MGMT recruiter, very.
In Mind MGMT, one player takes on the role of the Recruiter. Using stealth and their four Immortal allies, they travel through the city contacting potential new agents and recruiting them to Mind MGMT. They have 16 hours to recruit 12 new agents and flee the city. If they do either without being caught, they win.
Up to four other players take on the role of Rogue Agents who use their pyschic powers to find where and when the Recruiter passed the various features of the city. By piecing together these clues, they hope to home in and capture the Recruiter before the 16 hours are up.
It is a game of logic, but you still need to ask the right questions at the right time and that may require a bit of luck. As you play successive games, the losing side gains access to new powers through the SHIFT system to help even the odds, so even if one person excels at evading capture, their opponents will get more and more powerful until they strike a balance.

About Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage “Game.”, from BoardGameGeek:
Working from the shadows, Mind MGMT once used its psychically-powered agents to put a stop to global crises. However, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and Mind MGMT is now rotting from the inside. To tighten its iron grip on the world stage, Mind MGMT deploys covert operatives around the world to recruit other psychically-attuned individuals to their side. How can this enigmatic organization, hell bent on global domination, be defeated?
Thankfully, a few renegade agents have figured out that Mind MGMT has been compromised and have defected, turning their backs on the syndicate. They now use their own psychic abilities to prevent Mind MGMT from achieving its nefarious goals.
In Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage "Game" one player controls Mind MGMT and must scour the city for new recruits. They move around on a secret map, trying to visit locations that match one of their three randomly drawn feature cards. They can also use their four Immortals to protect locations from being exposed.
All other players control the rogue agents who must try to stop Mind MGMT before it's too late! They ask questions to the Recruiter and deduce their whereabouts from the answers they receive. Rogue agents can use dry-erase "mental notes" to track all the information they're given.
Mind MGMT wins by either collecting twelve recruits or surviving sixteen turns. The rogue agents can win only by capturing Mind MGMT, which they do when they believe they're on the same block as Mind MGMT.
