There's a bomb somewhere Although the story moves quite slow, I was able to appreciate the detail built into this RPG. While the graphics were only average, this is typical of this genre. I had hoped that the sounds would have been better but the quest is the most important part to the game and Data East did a good job in delivering the goods.
The story doesn't move along very quickly and I really had hoped that it would have had more action. Still, it is a game that will appeal to fans of this genre. This cart has a really cool storyline and gets more interesting as you play. There are a few humorous moments and lots of things to interact with The graphics are not too impressive and the sound support is very weak.
The game will definitely appeal to RPG fans but most players might not be too impressed with this cart. Shadowrun is a really good RPG sporting plenty of items and people to interact with.
The quest is long and rough, but it moves slow enough to keep your head on straight. Shadowrun may not be very exciting, but any fan of the board game will be very pleased to pick this one up.
