Man and Magic Come Together
In 2012, magic returned to our world, awakening powerful mythical beings such as The Great Dragon Feuerschwinge that came roaring out from Germany's mountains without warning and unleashed fire, death and untold destruction across its countryside. When German forces finally shot her down it became known as The Dragonfall - their victory becoming known worldwide.

Now a new threat has arisen that threatens untold havoc and devastation; soon you and your team could find themselves caught up in its deadly conspiracy. Rumors circulate of Dragonfall; there may even be one or more Great Dragon Feuerschwinge alive out there waiting for just the right opportunity to return...

Command Your Team: Take control of a small team of shadowrunners - each with unique outlooks, motivations and backstories. Members are designed to play specific roles during missions; each with its own set of skills, abilities, strengths and weaknesses that you should leverage during missions - but remember it's more than that - each member also faces personal struggles that you have the option of brushing aside or participating actively with.

Tactical Combat with Gripping Turn-Based Combat: Each step in shadow warfare matters - choose wisely between moving closer to cover or charging in melee battle; moving in for melee melee engagement or unleashing fireballs onto an entire enemy squad are all options that must be carefully considered each turn if you hope for success in shadow warfare! With more than 200 weapons and spells at your disposal every move presents meaningful choices that make each turn count for something important!

Skill-Based Character Progression: Select your starting character archetype and customize from there! Street Samurais and Physical Adepts can use advanced combat skills to dominate battlegrounds; Shamans/Mages summon powerful allies while casting deadly spells; Riggers and Deckers provide critical technological support by projecting consciousness directly into drones/computer systems for critical technological support - Shadowrun: Dragonfall's classless skill system allows your character to progress any which way it pleases; this feature has also been included as part of Director's Cut.
Due to popular demand, Dragonfall is now available as a standalone title!

Five All-New Missions: The Director's Cut features five all-new missions crafted to address directly your team members' personal stories. You will traverse previously unseen locales within and beyond Flux State where enemies present difficult choices while you must face off against formidable foes to ensure your squad prevail.

Revamp of Dragonfall Combat System: The Dragonfall combat system has undergone significant upgrades. An all-new armor system adds another tactical dimension while refined cover and damage mechanics emphasize battlefield positioning. Complementing these improvements, an upgraded AI system now reacts more intelligently and accurately in response to your actions.

Redesign of Interface: Dragonfall has recently undergone a significant upgrade of their in-game interface, making spells, items and abilities much simpler to access while improved combat feedback enables you to fully comprehend any given encounter's tactical situation.

Customize Your Team: As your team progresses through various roles, select focus options that grant items and abilities for new items to appear on them. Furthermore, if any spell, item, or weapon loadout doesn't suit their role you can now alter what each team member brings on each mission!
