Android: Netrunner, A card game I picked up at Denver ComicCon. Options

[Neurosis]

So on a whim, I picked up this big box covered in cyberpunk artwork that said Android: Netrunner at Denver ComicCon. It's a "Living Card Game" (like a CCG but less exploitative) with asymmetrical gameplay, for two players. Basically, it plays a lot like Matrix runs in Shadowrun; one player plays the hacker/decker/console cowboy, the other player controls the corp they're trying to slice into. The starter box came with a bunch of tokens along with cards enough to form four corp decks and the runner decks. Since the idea is so Shadowrunny, I wanted to see if anyone here has checked this out.

I'm just getting started playing it, only played a few games with my girlfriend but so far it seems super fun. The ability to create/hack remote servers and install IC is awesome. (If only the Shadowrun Matrix rules has always been this fun, heh.)

Mrs. Crit and I have been playing Android: Infiltration for a few weeks, and it's a lot of fun. It's still a competitive (and not a co-op) game, but it...feels a little less competitive, I guess? It's not as directly "you versus your wife," at any rate, which makes her more likely to play.

The artwork for both of 'em is phenomenal, and it's a really cool universe with a surprising amount of crossover from game to game. It's pretty cool stuff.

My L5R gaming group has taken to it pretty well.

One complaint I have is that to build some decks I need to buy 1/2 more starter box.

At my FLGS we have a pretty competitive scene for this game, personally I was a big fan of the original netrunner card game back in the day and this version of it is even better. So glad it came back.
