I always liked this game and thought that it wasn't an overly big game world to get lost in as you figure out where to go next. It's broken up in chapters. It feels very much inspired by action RPG's of the past but it's unique and I dont think i've seen another game like it. To me the game feels like an old school Action-RPG but with all the elements being fresh. And it gets bonus points for beingfroma completely western source material: that of the Pen and Paper classic Shadowrun
Shadowrun is a (light) text driven RPG with action and shooting elements played from a top down isometric perspective (if it wasn't for the isometric perspective they probably would have made it a top down shooter like on the Megadrive) You farm enemies for cash which you ultimately try to improve your weapons armor and equipment. You get stronger and tougher as you level up.
Game had a cyberpunk dystopian tone and has a soundtrack to relfect this that I thought was good.
Story was pretty good and the dialogue has some memorable bits. Particularly that opening line of "My brain Feels burnt"
It's rather light on the RPG elements and focuses on action, it works really well for this game. its not that long. Did a decent job illustrating the world of Shadowrun as well.
