SYNTHETIK Wiki
Advertisement

All the enemies that appear in Synthetik are made by Kaida Corporation and recognize enemies that attack with their humanity.

Each layer has its own enemies, humanoids and drones are assembled into one unit, sometimes with a fixed turret.

Before the game starts, you can adjust the difficulty to adjust the overall performance of enemies. See Difficulty modifiers.
