The development studio Harebrained Scheme was founded by Shadowrun inventor Jordan Weisman Among the employees was Mitch Gitelman, the producer of Microsoft's 2007 multiplayer action game Shadowrun. The game is presented from an isometric perspective. In the course of the game, more companion characters join. Alternatively, he can put together his own class from different skills. He asks the player character to find the client.Īt the beginning the player creates a character for whom he can choose from five races (human, elf, dwarf, orc, troll) and six character classes (street samurai, mage, decker, shaman, rigger, physical adept). This is made possible by the 'Dead Mans Switch', an automatic message that is activated after death. The player character receives a message from a shadowrunner friend after he was murdered. The game is set in a futuristic scenario of the city of Seattle.
