Neural Maze
2 neurons. 2 sticks. One brain has to drive both at once: yours. Guide your stray neurons through ever-more-twisted mazes — inverted controls, power cuts, memory mode — under the eye of a doctor who's in over his head.

In Neural Maze you steer two neurons at once — one per stick — and your brain hates it. No co-op mode to lean on, no partner to blame, no voice chat to save you. Just you, two sticks, and a double maze clearly designed by someone who doesn't like you.
A doctor — not like the others — informs you that your brain is losing neurons. And since nobody has the time to look after you, it's up to you to bring the strays back home, one careful (or panicked) move at a time.
Eight levels, from "Baby" to "Crazy" — 28 challenges each. They start out as gentle little learning mazes and turn cruel fast: inverted controls, a power cut, a maze that vanishes mid-run, memory mode, a timer piling on the pressure — even a microscope lens that gives out on you.
Every run is a duel with your own reflexes — and a small, satisfying upgrade for your gamepad-brain. Especially when the path disappears and you still have to make it to the end.
Your doctor sticks with you the whole way, doing their best with the equipment to hand… even when they struggle to keep up. Gamepad strongly recommended. Your brain will thank you. One day. A free demo is available right now — try dissociating your brain, then add Neural Maze to your wishlist.
