Shell Runner is a high-stakes, top-down tactical shooter set in a gritty cyberpunk future. As a mercenary, you pilot remote-controlled “Shells”—android bodies used for dangerous extraction missions in a sprawling urban wasteland. Every run is a perilous gamble: succeed and amass wealth, but fail and lose everything.
Key Features
Tactical Extraction Gameplay
Enter procedurally generated missions to loot, fight, and escape—if you survive the operation, all your haul stays with you.
Permadeath Stakes
Lose your Shell, and it—and everything you were carrying—is gone for good, raising the tension of every mission.
Wide Variety of Shells
Choose from over 20 different Shell models, ranging from cheap disposable bodies to high-tech combat units, each with unique strengths and weaknesses.
Custom Loadouts and Modifiers
Outfit your Shell with weapons, explosives, and stat-enhancing modifiers to adapt your approach and push the limits of effectiveness.
Solo or Co-op Options
Play alone or team up with others to tackle the deadly underworld together and coordinate your extraction strategies.
Unpredictable Runs
With randomized environments, enemies, loot, and boss encounters, no two missions ever play the same.
