I loved this game! I still have the original rulebook. That my AD&D 2nd ed. books, Star Frontiers and Gamma World boxed sets may be my most prized possessions.

- debo_ 1y agoI'm running a Cities Without Number campaign now, but I sure do steal a lot from Shadowrun.
- solardev 1y agoDid you ever try the CRPG Shadowrun Chronicles games?
- lemonberry 1y agoI did not. I didn't get into computers until much later. Though I did die of Typhoid a bunch of times on the Oregon Trail when I was in junior high.

- lemonberry 1y agoCool! I had to look "Uncle Al catalogs" up. I remember seeing ads for Car Wars, but never played it myself. There were so many neat games back then. Gamma World was really neat and timely given how fearful we all were of nuclear war. I remember watching Road Warrior at the time and thinking that Gamma World could actually be the world we live in. Dragon Magazine would occasionally have articles on Gamma World too. So much food for the young imagination.
