Where To Find The First Shattered Classroom Half-A-Mind

The first Psychonauts 2 Hollis’ Hot Streak Half-A-Mind collectible is very easy to spot.

It is located in the Shattered Classroom, or the first area you get to explore.

From the central platform, look around you to spot it on a suspended round platform near a die.

Use the Mental Connection to get on that platform.

Where To Find The Cardiology Backroom Half-A-Mind

One of the Psychonauts 2 Hollis’ Hot Streak Half-A-Minds can be found in the Cardiology Back Room.

This one is, in fact, one of the trickiest collectibles here, as it is easy to miss and hard to get.

Without spoiling the game for you, let me tell you that the Cardiology Back Room is the area you’ll reach via the Cardiology when you try to “fix” the Hearts to win the race.

Now, the moment you get there, in front of you, there’s a large gate immediately after the first platforms that change their colors.

Once you pass through the said gate, turn left to spot the Half-A-Mind sitting on a couch.

If you want to get it in your first playthrough, try jumping and gliding from the red couch above.

You may also want to use the Levitation Ball to gain some speed before jumping and gliding.

So, if you have a missing Psychonauts 2 Hollis’ Hot Streak Half-A-Mind collectible, most likely, this is the one.
