Reminds me of RPG of old. Great storyline and immersive gameplay.

User Rating: 8.5 | Shadowrun Returns PC
This game reminds of the good old days (think late 80s to 90s) where computer RPGs were made great because of the gameplay and storyline, instead of flashy graphics.

The story is very well-written and keeps one glued to the game to find out what is going unravel next. Unfortunately, the campaign is a bit short and ends after about 12 hours of gameplay.

The other positive about the game is the combat system. It's a turn-based tactical system akin to X-Com EU, but with magic and close combat added in. There are many ways to deal damage. You can use guns, close combat weapons, spells, chi attacks or even conjure up elementals to fight on your side. Enemy AI may not be as intelligent as X-Com but it's enough to keep things entertaining.

What really keeps me excited though is the editor. Even though it's launched less than 2 weeks ago, we are already seeing quite a few interesting user generated campaigns. Once fans are given time to build and polish up their content, we will be seeing many hours of blissful shadowrunning.
