About the game

The unique cyberpunk-meets-fantasy world of Shadowrun has gained a huge cult following since its creation nearly 25 years ago. Now, creator Jordan Weisman returns to the world of Shadowrun, modernizing this classic game setting as a single player, turn-based tactical RPG. In the urban sprawl of the Seattle metroplex, the search for a mysterious killer sets you on a trail that leads from the darkest slums to the city’s most powerful megacorps. You will need to tread carefully, enlist the aid of other runners, and master powerful forces of technology and magic in order to emerge from the shadows of Seattle unscathed.

    I've got to give props to this game for addressing twin loss, however obliquely. The storyline will incentivize you into using the shotgun skill for the endgame, whether you spend the rest of the game leading up to that using a different weapon of choice or not. I like SMGs, personally. But putting some points into shotguns later on wasn't a deal breaker for me, even if it is a bit wasteful, in an RPG system which…

    The game is quite fun (a simplified XCOM with a cool setting). However, my understanding is that this game got review bombed by a lot of Turkish players (no disrespect to any nationality).
