Out of the Machine
Covering a range from classic cyberpunk to post cyberpunk, Ex Machina is a comprehensive rulebook for this intense role-playing genre. In addition to an insightful retrospect of the literary and cinematic genre, Ex Machina features four distinct cyberpunk settings by some of most creative minds in the industry: Bruce Baugh, Christian Gossett and Brad Kayl, Michelle Lyons, and Rebecca R. Borgstrom.
Ex Machina also details new rules for cyberware, bioware, and cyberspace, written by Tri-Stat guru David L. Pulver. With dozens of occupational and species templates, vehicles, weapons, and character enhancements, you can create your character and be ready to play in minutes.
Lavishly illustrated by the talented artists of Udon, Ex Machina is the final word in cyberpunk role-playing.

| 5 + 4 | arcady | Ex Machina. This is the cyberpunk genre as we see it in today's science fiction, and not trapped in the 80s like so many competitor RPGs. If Cyberpunk as a genre appeals to you, if only even Science Fiction appeals to you, buy this game. Ex Machina deserves notice.

| 4 + 4 | Fishmonger | Ex Machina. This is not your father’s cyberpunk. Guardians of Order modernizes the genre and provides four settings that take it in several new directions. [ Read Review ] |

| 6 / 10 | Flibbertigibbet | Very mixed. The rules are useless, one of the settings is terrible, one of the settings is cool to read but unplayable, and two are very good. An interesting book, but probably not worth the money. |
| 9 / 10 | NeuroZombie | This is, IMHO, the best entry into the Cyberpunk Genre yet. It is full featured and offers one of the best overviews of the cyberpunk movement I have ever read. I started my Cyber-Gaming with Cyberpunk 2020 and Shadowrun almost simultaneously when they first arrived on the scene, but as technology evolved I was more and more hesitant to use either. Now I have found my perfect Cyber-RPG! |
