Nero & Sci Integral Edition Launches on Switch and Steam
The release brings a math-themed puzzle action game, developed with academic supervision, to both Switch and Steam on the same day.
Reporting from 1 source: 4Gamer.net.
G-MODE released the puzzle action game Nero & Sci Integral Edition on the Nintendo eShop on August 18, 2026, priced at 2,200 yen, with a 10 percent discount to 1,980 yen until October 4. Souris-Lab distributed the PC version on Steam the same day. The game was developed with supervision from the Lyon Institute of Mathematical Education.
The game is set in a fantastical world of numbers and mathematical symbols. Players control the Synapsian Nero, who drops a bottle containing Sci and a book on chaos theory in a library basement, leading to an escape from the cave of Hemaide.
Story mode has 36 stages, with hidden stages unlocked by fulfilling conditions. Total play time is expected to exceed 20 hours. Clearing stages relies on intuition and consideration rather than specialized mathematical knowledge, using Nero and Sci's abilities to solve gimmicks involving numbers and figures.
Nero's abilities include Impulse, Vector Arrow, and Sliding, while Sci supports with White Dimension and Inflation. Light Coins obtained during exploration can strengthen skills. The game supports two-player local cooperative play.
