When you think of combating viruses, chances are, you would think of the best free anti-virus program that you can download. the last thing you would think of is hiring cyber soldiers to go into space and shoot them into oblivion. But the latter is exactly what you need to do in this brand new Android game called Neural Diver: Cyber Defender.
The game follows the story of one of the neural divers for hire that goes into one of Earth’s colonies in space to deal with a particularly dangerous virus there. Neural divers are elite soldiers who have the ability to separate their minds from their bodies so they can go into cyber space. This is an arcade game that has a retro feel, similar to the shmup (shoot em up) games of the 80s. This sense of nostalgia is a common theme from the new games into the market, and children of the 80s and 90s aren’t really complaining.
Neural Diver has 7 stages you have to go through to beat the viruses. Of course it starts out easy, but then slowly becomes difficult until it becomes really challenging. But the developer assures us that this game is winnable. You can acquire new weapons and add various effects as you go through the game.
You can download Neural Diver: Cyber Defender from the Google Play Store for free. There are no in-app purchases available, but the game is 100% ad-supported so it needs your permission for locations once you’ve installed it on your smartphone or tablet.
