It’s a world where technology and mutation collide in chaotic, ugly ways, and the gameplay embraces that chaos at every opportunity.

I feel like this game has a very nice "difficulty curve": the first levels are easy and teach you the basics, but pretty soon you will have to think more closely on how to spend your resources, and also take into account the different styles of enemies you will face, and which traps / abilities will be most effective against them.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
8 of 52 sampled reviews raised it
Yet for players who enjoy heavy combat layered over strategic planning, Neural Shock delivers a distinct kind of thrill.
