About This Game

What defines one’s nature when self is lost?

Metaneurosis is a surreal, story-rich turn-based RPG blending tactical combat, dark humor, and emotional introspection. Navigate bizarre mindscapes shaped by fear, memory, and unresolved pain—where every absurd encounter hides something meaningful underneath.

What does it cost to stay true to oneself?

You play as someone stuck in life—mentally, emotionally, and maybe literally. Each world you enter is a manifestation of a deeper struggle, filled with talking skeletons, corporate nightmares, undead seagulls, and the occasional flying walrus.

It’s ridiculous—until it isn’t.
