[Version 2.0 Synopsis - ConQuest '23]
Neurons is an Arcade-RPG game that challenges you to connect with other neurons and make sense of the situation you find yourself in. Quick thinking is key as you work to uncover the truth about your surroundings. Are you ready to unlock the secrets of your surroundings and remember the truth that lies hidden within?

[Version 1.0 Synopsis - GGJ Version]
You play as the only healthy neuron left of Juan. You have the ability to claim neutral neurons to collect memories but your power comes with a cost, as every time you attempt to capture a neuron, you lose an amount of brain power. You regain a portion of it when you capture a neuron and more so when you capture a rare memory by solving the mazes. As you progress through the game, you begin to uncover various memories. With each collected memory, the more you remember about yourself.
