Critic Reviews
GameSpot
By Daniel StarkeyShadowrun Chronicles is a bad use of the Shadowrun license, and a bad tactical RPG.
CGMagazine
By Alexander LeachIn the end, the missions just aren't enough to really make this stand out too strongly.
Gaming Nexus
By Rob LarkinShadow run is a campy romp that doesn't take itself too seriously. Its fun to play through, but only mimics (and doesn't quite stack up to) the exceedingly excellent XCOM. There is better weapon class variety, character customization, and a few other points where it might exceed its muse, but it measures up just a shade below on most other occasions.
ThisGenGaming
By Kerwin TsangShadowrun Chronicles is not necessarily a game that can stand on its own merits; it exists to fulfill the lack of multiplayer in the Shadowrun series, and while it does this rather well, players approaching this game from an uninformed position should do so only once they've become fully aware of what they'd be getting themselves into. In short: do not play this game by yourself. If you prefer a singleplayer experience, play Shadowrun Returns or Dragonfall, or even the upcoming Hong Kong.
