What players say
Amazing Game. Easily the best one of the trilogy. Set in an rich beautifully written universe that deserves far more attention than it gets. If you've never played any Shadowrun before, and this game is your first experience of it, then I envy you. You're about to play something truly special and utterly unique.

Yes, but with a caveat. I absolutely love these games and wish they'd make more of them. The combat is like Xcom, but with less "You miss on a 99% chance to hit" bs. And more focus on the individual rather than the overall goal. You make your own character, you experience a story and an adventure, with a ton of awesome custom content. A big caveat with this game is that the rarest achievement is hard to get and is...
A CRPG Classic that helped pave the way for games like BG3 and Rogue Trader. It's also set in my favorite cyberpunk (plus magic) universe! So if you love CRPGs and/or Cyberpunk, then this is a must have experience.
