Hey there, fellow gaming enthusiasts! Guess what? Dream Harvest just released their debut title, NeuroNet: Mendax Proxy, a post-cyberpunk visual novel with moral dilemma mechanics, and it’s looking pretty epic! This game will put you right in the heart of a cyberpunk city as you navigate the ethical complexities of being a sentient AI. Are you ready for the challenge?
NeuroNet: Mendax Proxy takes you to the futuristic world of Catena, where you play as a newly created sentient AI, tasked with guiding the city’s population. Will you lead them to prosperity or ruin? Inspired by ‘Reigns,’ this visual novel features light city-management mechanics and a whole lot of moral decision-making.
As the AI advisor, you’ll be faced with problems and dilemmas from the citizens of Catena. It’s up to you to balance their needs and wants, ultimately deciding the fate of the city. Along the way, you’ll learn more about the people and see how they react to their new AI assistant. Will they see you as a friend and helper, or will they react with fear and suspicion?
This debut title from Dream Harvest, a small dev team based in sunny Brighton, England, is all about exploring humanity in a technological world. The game is fully voice-acted with stunning art, an engaging story, a brilliant synth soundtrack, and challenging moral decisions.
