In My Brain is a unique adventure game that delves into mental health challenges through the eyes of Nano, a nanoparticle navigating the complex landscapes of human minds. This pixel art action-puzzle game combines engaging gameplay with educational content, allowing players to tackle mental health issues like anorexia, schizophrenia, and depression. As Nano, players must solve intricate puzzles, defeat enemies, and collect Nanoballs, which provide valuable insights into these disorders, enhancing both the gaming experience and understanding of mental health topics.
The game features a well-researched narrative influenced by real-life interviews and approved by a specialist psychiatrist, adding depth to the storyline.
