About the Game

Make sure to read the Game Setting Manual! You need NeuroSky's Mindwabe Mobile 2 to play the game.

Neuro Nightmare is an innovative game that utilizes brain-computer interface (BCI) technology to maximize the immersion of horror games. Players must run away from the unknown in a closed boarding school, operating all the levers to find a way out. But it's not just a survival game—your brain activity directly affects gameplay.

The game adjusts the gaming environment by analyzing the player's concentration and stability in real time through BCI technology. The higher the concentration, the wider the field of view, and if you maintain stability, you can use the special ability to hide from monsters. This unique mechanism provides a sense of immersion that sets you apart from conventional horror games.

It also includes a typical play mode that doesn't support BCI, and you can enjoy a different gaming experience while comparing the two modes.
