Beyond Good & Evil
''Beyond Good & Evil'' is a 2003 action-adventure video game developed and published by Ubisoft for the PlayStation 2, Microsoft Windows, Xbox and GameCube platforms. The story follows the adventures of Jade, an investigative reporter and martial artist, who works with a resistance movement to reveal a sinister alien conspiracy. The player controls Jade and allies, solving puzzles, fighting enemies, and obtaining photographic evidence.

The term ''trance'' may be associated with hypnosis, meditation, magic (paranormal), magic, flow (psychology), flow, prayer, and altered states of consciousness.
