Описание
В поисках загадочного убийцы, обитающего в метроплексе Сиэтла, вы побываете в мрачных трущобах и самых влиятельных корпорациях города. Чтобы докопаться до истины, вам придётся действовать очень осторожно, заручиться помощью других раннеров и овладеть передовыми технологиями и магией.
Мир Shadowrun, смесь киберпанка и фэнтези, был придуман четверть века тому назад и c тех пор обрёл большое количество поклонников. Его создатель Джордан Уайзман вернулся к Shadowrun, чтобы осовременить классику и превратить её в тактическую пошаговую ролевую игру.
Особенности игры
- Напряжённые тактические бои: когда вы действуете в тени, важно каждое действие. Обдумывайте все возможные ходы, чтобы выбрать наилучший: перебраться в более надёжное укрытие, броситься в рукопашную или швырнуть огненный шар в толпу врагов. Благодаря большому выбору оружия и заклинаний вам придётся взвешивать каждый свой шаг. Для успешного выполнения заданий вам понадобятся раннеры, чьи боевые, технические и магические способности дополняют друг друга.
- Свободное развитие персонажа: выберите базовый архетип героя и делайте с ним что хотите! Уличные самураи и физические адепты владеют продвинутыми боевыми навыками, шаманы и маги призывают могущественных существ и колдуют смертоносные заклинания, а ригеры и декеры оказывают незаменимую поддержку с помощью технологий, напрямую загружая своё сознание в дроны и компьютерные программы. Бесклассовая система навыков Shadowrun Returns позволит вам свободно развивать персонажа. Хотите начать игру за орка-шамана, призывающего духов, и сделать из него кибербойца? Пожалуйста!
- Эффектная смесь 2D и 3D-графики: Shadowrun Returns сочетает в себе персонажей и освещение в 3D и нарисованные от руки декорации, а портреты персонажей добавляют диалогам живости. Исследуйте детально проработанный мир — от трущоб Редмондских Пустошей до вычурных офисов могущественных корпораций.

A fine crpg with a somewhat linear story. Well worth it despite that
short, but very interesting introduction to the shadowrun universe and to the C-RPG subgenre as a whole. if you don't have the time. just skip this one and play the next one in the thrillogy. but, if you love a cyberpunk universe and just wants more of Shadowrun, or if you're trying to get a hold of the turn based tactical combat, this is the place for it.
7/10
If you played and enjoyed the original on SNES then the odds are good that you will love SR Returns and the follow-ups, SR Dragonfall and SR Hong Kong. Each entry has a solid or better storyline with fairly well measured talent progression and all 3 titles also have tons of amazing user created content and storylines in the workshop which greatly expand the life of each game. If you are new to the series, but familiar with the general style and type of gameplay and graphics, then the lore and story should satisfy well. After you have digested all 3 titles then you can move onto the modern day version of this/these games, which is Cyberpunk.
I've been playing the TTRPG for many years. It is always enjoyable to jump into a pre-made campaign and fire some mana bolts at bad people.
I like it. Or maybe I don't.
I mean you might like it.
I was not drawn in by this game.
I love crpgs, character sheets, turn based combat, cyberpunk.
Sounds like a win for me but the pieces never fit together.
Interface felt clunky, story is ok, haven't finished the game.
.
first entry in the modern shadowrun reboot trilogy, and even though this is merely a simple tech demo for what was to come, this is a damn fine crpg with a fun system and ruleset, fun mechanics, and a really interesting story. it was cool to see where i literally live in a video game, and i can not wait to hop into he next two games in the future.
Shadowrun Returns ... how have I not written a review for this game yet?
What an iconic title, that really reminded people that tactical games could have story and compelling characters.
Of the three games in this trilogy, I love "Returns" the most. "Dragonfall" actually gives you a better portrayal of what it's like to be on a Shadowrun team but I love the Cyberpunk Fantasy Noir that this game brought to the table.
The ending is a bit silly - in my opinion - and the worst part of a great game.
That all said, I played it in 2023 and it felt dated. I would love to see another game in this series, made with a modern engine.
Should have 100 hours of play with dozens of side missions, but it had a decent storyline and an good gameplay.
Just finished it in 2024. The story and world design are GREAT! The game itself a bit too aged now, but the story compensates it. I really liked it and recommend you all try it even if much time has gone. It will still be an interesting world and a good story.
On paper this is right up my alley, but in reality it just feels clunky and plodding.
I beat this years and years ago when it first came out, but on a recent replay attempt I got bored of the strategy-heavy battles before I made it through enough of the game for the story to pull me in. I'm not really sure how I made it through this then, but I certainly can't now.
If you love strategy RPGs, this may work for you! It doesn't for me, at least not in 2024.
The Shadowrun franchise had another crack at the video game market and I don't think this trilogy really makes the cut of being a good series of tactical rpgs. The UI is as if it's from a mobile game. Tangled by bugs sometimes making it unusable, leading to reloads and resets. This happens in every game of this loosely sequential trilogy.
The meat and potatoes being the combat that's very random in its distribution of damage. Regardless of the bombastic sound effects, the guns themselves often hurt the enemies as if they were bb guns. The cover system is borrowed from XCOM: Enemy Unknown which is a superior game for this type of turn-based action. You can take cover behind various objects in this game, but it's not always clear if you're able to shoot from behind of them. You can also forget using walls as a convenient cover.
The lore is interesting and the writing can sometimes be good. But it has a tendency to become too wordy for its own good, especially the third game "Shadowrun: Hong Kong". Somehow the first two Fallout games were masterful in evoking images of the dystopia world and did it with less padding of words. There's also a slight hint of neo-liberalism projected through this game series with its writing, but not to a degree of being bothersome.
tl;dr - It's not bad, it's just lukewarm and has a lousy user interface
the best future for this franchise would be to let Firaxis have a go at making a game about it
Its OK. Cool universe but the story isn't intriguing to me and the combat encounters while enjoyable have been few and far between so far.
Can see someone who plays other game like this enjoying it more than I have, was just a bit slow for my tastes.
I didn't play the original, but this seems like a great experience on it's own.
Story is very linear but extremely well written. Kind of a short game too but worth playing.
Concept, story, variety of turn based combat are all fun. Mod support also adds so much more to variety. Game is technically polished as well, with no bugs, etc.
Stylistically though, I wish the soundtrack didn't all sound the same, because it gets boring and repetitive.
100% recommend at sale
Beautiful port from the old pen&paper.
If you loved Shadowrun back then, you will love this one...
... if you dont know the old game, you will love it nevertheless :D
Fun if a bit limited.
returned to this game from years ago... Still very fun.
Shadowrun Returns is a relatively linear RPG set in the tabletop RPG world of Shadowrun which mixes cyberpunk and fantasy in a rare combination.
The mechanics are based off of the table top and are solid. The story is interesting and pretty dark. Your choices won't matter too much in terms of the outcomes, but they lend character to your.... character.
The game is rather short for an RPG, took me around 12h to complete, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.
I reccommend getting it!
Shadowrun rulez forever!
fun if you can deal with a slower paced game.
So I played through this several times over the years and I think I owe it a review.
In short, Shadowrun Returns is pretty good. It's not perfect but you'll get a lot for the asking price. I don't get people complaining about it being too short, I think the length feels just right. The overall presentation, quality of writing and core gameplay are all great. Yes, there are issues like the clunky GUI and at least one horribly bugged quest (the first one to the Universal Brotherhood, Idk maybe don't bring a decker along and don't fight the turrets on the ground level?).
Anyway, this game is a really good start to the franchise and the second game, Dragonfall, is even better in every way. I recommend to start here though, it's worth it.
Great Game a real classic
I love the Shadowrun universe. This is a fun game to play.
Love Shadowrun...every game but the one Microsoft was responsible for, sadly they are the ones who own it now...It's a great immersive, atmospheric game in the cyberpunk genre.
Re-playing through the whole set of these...just beautiful really. Hard Boiled, I love it
A superb game that I first played on Android whilst it was still available for that platform. Bought it for my PC as the game was removed from the Play Store and rendered inoperable by an OS update.
For lovers of the original series, this game represents a truly fantastic experience.
It's a lot of fun, which is kind of the point of games, right? It has an engaging tactical game, sets the proper tone in the game, and tells an interesting story with cool characters.
it's great just give it time
This game stays true to the original SNES. I love the genre, and it is a masterpiece in my opinion.
Very short game with very limited content.
It's still a well told story with solid turn based isometric game play. Sure there are a few glitches, here and there and it doesn't perfectly encapsulate the rules set for the game, but it still is a lot of fun.
A very good game albeit a short one, with a great atmosphere and a thrilling story in cyberpunk Seattle about the murder of your friend. Although it does take a bit of a weird turn when you start fighting bugs with the jonkler
played it through twice - starting again new class
On the short side, but turn-based gameplay and leveling system is highly addictive without too much complication. Appealing NPCs.
This game has a weird charm to it, very rare combination of elements that work really well together.
The graphics are not great, even for the time. The combat is not impactful. The RPG mechanics are passable, the idea of fantasy-cyberpunk is silly...
But the pacing, the writing, the world building, and the moment to moment elements of managing the combat are all great.
This game is kind of ugly at first glance, but a prime example of not judging a book by its cover. I'm currently working through my third playthrough over several years, and I every time I come back I'm surprised how well it hooks me.
This rules. More to come, a long time from now.
I really enjoyed playing this. Gameplay is solid and story is interesting with fine conclusion (those final dialogues are great). Graphics are nice. There are some downsides like item management, linearity and a bit tedious final act (missing with Aegis twice means you will basically repeat last two turns), but for me it hit that nostalgia for old cyberpunk pen and paper RPGs better than Cyberpunk 2077. Looking forward to other two Shadowrun games.
fun game reminds me of playing the table top version
