Info about animation and Inkscape: https://inkscape.org/en/learn/animation/
Inkscape has no native animation capability. So I'm not sure how you could use the Inkscape canvas as the game board or background. The canvas would have to be a raster background image, with the various tools or buttons being interactive areas (over the background). It couldn't be the actual Inkscape canvas, at least as far as I understand what you're asking.
However, note that I'm not an Inkscape developer, or any kind of programmer, and I only have a simple understanding of animation.
Anyway, that page on animation should give you a good overview.
It sounds like a fun game, and I hope I can play it someday :-)
Good Luck!

People,
I am going to develop an Open Source interactive game for designing the neural architecture of a VERY simple alien organism - for research purposes. I am thinking that Inkscape is a sort of (more complicated) version of the interface that that would be required. During the game, after a bit of design, the alien organism should animate to some extent (depending how good the design is) because of the nerves interacting with the muscles and other cell organelles - which all correspond to SVG objects - is this a sensible method of proceeding?
Thanks,
Phil.
