NeuroNet: Mendax Proxy is a narrative-driven city management game where you must balance the needs and wants of its many citizens in order to determine the fate of a post-cyberpunk city on the verge of a new digital era.

Using a simple swipe left or right interface, you’ll face 1000s of dilemmas where there are no right or wrong answers, only your evolving moral compass to guide the way as you try to find your humanity in a world losing theirs to technology.

You are a newly created A.I. designed to manage the city of Catena. As you tackle the demands of the populace you will be challenged to balance their needs against your own moral compass. How will you decide who to help when the effect of every choice you make ripples out across the city? Choose wisely, your decisions impact the outcome of the story and the future of Catena.
