Mindgames decided to change their legal organisation status and no longer be a NPMA (VZW, Stichting, ASBL).

Release of Actors In A Play, a conceptalbum recorded at Ace Studio and produced by Frank Van Bogaert. The title lumps together the different characters and personalities described on this album. The album received very postive comments from the international press. The cooperation with bassplayer Eric Vandormael has ended. Stoffel de Laat (bass, 2006-2007) joins the band.

A year of composing.

2002
Official release of International Daylight, the first big fella. Several presentations of this album.
2001
In preparation for the full cd. In august Mindgames got his own website. In the beginning it was just an informational page where people could register to stay informed.
2000
Rudy (guitar) had the most difficult audition: not only he had to search for a sound and a guitar line for the existing songs, he also was confronted with a band playing on the same wavelength. His way of playing and his musical ideas were the missing link that Mindgames was looking for. The chemistry with the other band members is responsible for the colourful symphonic style of Mindgames.
1999
Demo recordings (Signs From the Sky, Mental Argue and Dreamin’ the Circus). We never had the intention to make this demo public, nevertheless we're still very proud of it! Further more some small gigs.
1998
Benny (drums) and Tom (keys) joins the band. Benny had been playing Metal for several years. Tom had been playing classical piano for ten years and was very interested in making different styles meet. It became the strength of the band making personal influences meet and blend.
1997
Mindgames is born. Bart and Eric (bass, 1997-2006), who had been playing in the same band a year before that, joined each other again to form a new band. The same kind of music that brought them together… Progressive and symphonic rock.
