Kickstarted by fans of the SNES classic, it blends character customization, an engaging story line, great design, and a solid tactical-combat system with great aplomb." - The Verge“Shadowrun Returns drops players headfirst into this richly realized fiction, combining classic role-playing storytelling with modern tactical battles . . . running the shadows has never been more fun.” - 8.5/10 – Game Informer MAN MEETS MAGIC & MACHINE. The year is 2054. Magic has returned to the world, awakening powerful creatures of myth and legend. Technology merges with flesh and consciousness. Elves, trolls, orks, and dwarves walk among us, while ruthless corporations bleed the world dry.

When the powerful or the desperate need a job done, you get it done... by any means necessary. 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.

Confirm? Bool Zero Well-Known Member Dec 14, 2010 1,922 0 36 #11 Bool Zero, Sep 25, 2013 Last edited: Sep 25, 2013 Perhaps... I rather liked the combat but I would have liked even more options available, but I don't think the combat is lacking in anyway, just that it could be expanded on. I wouldn't say average as much as not as challenging as some may want. But that's just coming away from games like Xcom, which in truth is an unfair comparison. The story is the driving force though, and expect a solid intriguing if somewhat linear romp. And yes, the lore and world are the driving force here! I've always felt Shadowrun was an underutilized and unappreciated world filled with rich lore and great potential for a series of games. So don't let my previous comments come off as a distraction as I think this is an awesome game! Definitely worth the purchase coming from someone willing to double down! ojtitus Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2010 3,228 5 38 Male Canton, Ohio #12 ojtitus, Sep 25, 2013 Thank goodness it's finally here!

They have said at some point, that they will at least be bringing the best user-generated content over to the ipad
