One of my favorite " cerebral" games was Carnage Heart, on the original Playstation. They did make several versions on othersony platforms, but I never had those.
If you are a flow path minded person, ( if/then/%/..etc, etc, then this game is for YOU!
It's a strategy map game, but the details lies in your programing skills for your machines of war.
You dont control your mechs, you do the programming of them. So how they fight, is all dependant on your skill. Each CPU is a certain size grid, and operates at a certain speed. The better you do, the more options of O.K.E.'s you get ( Over Kill Engines) armor, weapons, engines, CPUs.. You program everything as simple or as complex you can fit into the CPU grid. Options of variables range from temps, damage, random counters, radio, and color signal broadcasts ( linking OKEs to perform as a team, if needed) evasive manuevering ( walk jump duck or attack) proximity to enemy, or friend, when and how your OKE selects and fires its weapon.
Brainy fun!
