Rinkusu is an MMO game available in all common browsers. The game's inception came from a neurologist while investigating various models for the competition between brain cells during the development of the human brain. The final game logic is a simplified abstraction where each node represents a brain cell, and each link represent the connections between brain cells.
Similar to brain cells, the strength of each node is based on the number of links. The greater the number of links, the greater the score. A node with more links can capture any other player's node with less links. Lose all your links, lose the game.
Like brain cells, nodes are located in three-dimensional space. For simplicty, the initial game board is two-dimensional. Registered users will have access to more advanced boards.
Coming soon: Registered users will also be able to specify rooms to play privately with friends. The board size will also be customizable.
