About the game

Weld cracked metal, patch armor, remove rust, and purge viruses using a range of specialized tools and materials. When the damage goes beyond repair, source parts by any means and work your magic to bring busted limbs back to life.

But what you've fixed has never been just steel and circuits.

Every customer walks into the clinic with a history, and an uncertain future. Embedded between the cold steel and closed circuits of each cyberware are memories of joy and sorrow. Unravel the hidden stories of your clients, and reveal the complexities of survival in a neon-bathed metropolitan.

About the playtest

This public playtest features a portion of the story and the current stage of gameplay. The game is constantly being optimized and reiterated so the playtest version is not the final version, and we’ll need your help and feedback to improve Steel Soul Shaper!
