The Technomancer is a cyberpunk action RPG, and a follow-up to Mars: War Logs from 2013. The game, originally known as Mars: Paradise Lost, was developed by studio Spiders, the creator of Bound by Flame, Of Orcs and Men and Faery: Legends of Avalon.

Story

The story takes us back to the cyberpunk universe known from the previous production where technology intersects with magic and warring factions are fighting for access to the most valuable of resources – water. The titular Technomancers are genetically modified warriors with enormous political influence, who are also the guardians of ancient knowledge. In combat they combine cutting edge technology with the supernatural power acquired through mutation, the source of which lies in the wisdom of their ancestors. All of this makes them look like demi-gods in the eyes of the community, but due to the common dislike towards mutants their presence may sometimes cause unexpected events.

The Technomancer Review – Spiders studio gather momentum

Spiders studio are pretty experienced with RPGs, but they aren’t really adept at them... Or at least that was the case until now – The Technomancer seems to indicate that soon, practice will make the creators of Mars: War Logs and Bound by Flame perfect.

DualShockers: 6.5 / 10 by Steven Santana

While it would be interesting to see the results of making the opposite storyline decisions, I won’t because that would mean having to relive moments where I wanted to throw my console out the window.

God is a Geek: 5 / 10 by Mick Fraser

The Technomancer, like Bound by Flame before it, tries to be too much like the genre leaders instead of finding its own way, and ends up falling short of the mark.

Attack of the Fanboy: 3 / 5 by Mike Guarino

The Technomancer's big sci-fi ambition is marred by its lack of polish and botched execution in a couple of big areas. It won't win any awards on the presentation side of things, but the core gameplay nevertheless elevates it and delivers some fast and chaotic fun. It's just too bad that the overall package wasn't able to come together as well as it could have.
