Gameplay

11 of 56 sampled reviews raised it
You should read a Steam guide to get more detailed info on the energy/build/ammo mechanics; this knowledge is highly useful and there's a lot of bang for the buck in micromanaging this - not in a repetitive RSI way, it's all about carefully deciding what order to do things in and where.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
10 of 56 sampled reviews raised it
The campaign is enjoyable, with a few scripted surprises here and there, but overall the game is quite low on unexpected things.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
5 of 56 sampled reviews raised it
The difficulty curve is really nice; each map presents some new more difficult hurdle, but once you've understood and dealt with that you can bring to bear all your accumulated knowledge from the previous maps to crush the enemy in a very satisfying conclusion.
