Anyone ever play "Bug Brain"?

When I heard of the eyewire site, I couldn’t help but recall a game I played in the past. It’s called Bug Brain by BioLogic. In Bug Brain a player builds a brain neuron by neuron to get a bug to perform a task. Neurons are either on or off. It’s programming at it lowest level. Is that the essence of how how brains work?


Do hardcore brain researchers play such games?
