Shadow Chamber | Available facilities
The Shadow Chamber facility is basically an upgraded version of the Laboratory. It gives access to new research projects, which are otherwise unavailable. Additionally, there's no point to construct this facility early in the game, as research projects here take monstrous amounts of time to complete, will pause "normal" research projects, and all of the things that you research here are story-related, meaning that you simply won't have anything to do here when you rush this facility.
The recommended time to construct this facility is when you have at least 5 scientists.
