'Shadowplay: Metropolis Foe' Announced, Playable at EGX 2019 - Screens & Trailer

Shadowplay: Metropolis Foe is a card game with a difference; take on the role of a band of lawless rebels in a strange, gargantuan cyberpunk city where battles and adventure lie in wait around every corner.

We are the reflection below neon lighting. We are the remnants of desire. We are the deprived and the humiliated. Those at the top, they shudder at the mere thought of breathing the same air as us… But what's ironic is that the reason that this world is so beautiful, the reason it is so insane, the reason it is so worth living is because they can't get rid of us, and they never will. Look through the prism of my eyes, of my life, and perhaps you will be able to see a world entirely different from the one in your imagination; but, then again maybe you were right all along?

Then you're crazy, just like me.

The seedy underworld of Starcity plays host to dozens of informants: find them, take on the missions they give you, and bring the city under your control!

A plot with hundreds of thousands of words, and it is no bedtime story at that. All the goings on in Starcity are as crazy as it gets! Take on the role of a band of lawless rebels in this strange gargantuan cyberpunk city with battle and adventure around every corner! The city also hosts dozens of lurking informants: find them, take on the missions they give, and bring the city under your control!


The story features more than 10 characters, each with distinct personalities and unique decks. Take companions with you to confront challenges ranging from robot guards to labyrinths of the mind! Want to storm the CEO's offices to the accompaniment of explosions, or sneak past guards and take out your opponents with a well-honed slash of your sword? The decision is yours!

Exploring Starcity will open the game world full of unique opportunities, with each step along the way bringing about changes to your deck. No matter whether it's wounds from the battlefield, psychological suffering, allies' assistance or a gang's hit list, they may all become cards in your deck, giving your battles a whole-new level of unpredictability. Each choice you make has a chance of showing up as a card, bringing victory to you-or to your opponent.

Attendees EGX 2019 at London's ExCel will also be given the first opportunity to get hands-on with the upcoming cyberpunk card battler!  This year's event, taking place at London's ExCeL on the 17th - 20th October, is the first public opportunity to get hands-on with the game.

Shadowplay: Metropolis Foe will launch for PC (Steam) in 2020.
