Watch Out for Fireballs! is a game club podcast, focused on retro and non-current games. Every week, we play a game in its entirety, then discuss its merits and flaws at length. Most episodes begin with a short sketch, and we're pretty liberal about keeping tangents in. But it ultimately comes down to: Why do we like (or dislike?) this game.

Episode 36: Shadowrun (SNES)
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross learn the true name of Shadowrun (SNES).
You’re Jake Armitage, but you don’t know that. You wake up dead in a city crawling with people who want you to be even deader. You point and click and shoot your way to answers about who you are, and who killed you. This is a weird, weird game, but we kind of liked it.
