Hive Commando

Alien Infiltrator Ikti was one of the best the Serrate Hive had to offer. Then one day, she died and never came back. What could have caused this? What kind of lasting damage could this have caused? Is any of this actually explored in the game? Who knows?! Why am I asking so many questions??? So What's The Game Actually Experimental combo between a top down shooty game and a real-time strategy (with pause available to do orders on the in-game map) (whether it actually succeeded in being either is up to you to decide)
