It does just one thing, but it does it well.
Gameplay: Shadowrun is a strictly online multiplayer game with no single player story at all. Furthermore, even this is limited to two variations of Capture The Flag (or artifact in this case). This on it's face may sound completely unplayable but you would be wrong, in fact, there is a great deal involved in this simple format.
You choose between four races: Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Troll. Each one has it's own unique benefits and limitations. Each has it's merits and can be a lot of fun. You will mix in different weapons and magical abilities that will make you want to try each one before settling on a favorite.
The gametypes, as said before, are a form of capture/defense of your artifact. You can of course go old school and simply kill the opposing team. This is done on a decent number of different maps that are small but suitable for what you're doing.
Graphics: In fairness, this is an older title from a now defunct studio. The game is viewed from mostly a first person perspective. It's not stellar but the game doesn't look bad either.
You can pick this game up very cheap just about anywhere. In my opinion, it's a steal for the price. With the right people the game is a blast. Despite the age of the game and the fact that it is no longer being supported by a developer, there is a very sizable community still playing this game. If you catch Shadowrun fever you will have no trouble finding a game.
