Geneforge 4: Rebellion is an Indie fantasy role-playing adventure, the fourth chapter of the Geneforge Saga. Once again, return to the world of the Shapers, where you will explore a vast world, choose what side you will fight for, and create and mold your own army of strange, powerful monsters.
I love spiderweb's games. This one does not disapoint. Its a great rpg, it calls for strategy not just hack and slash your way through masses of enemies. The story line is great, it is understandable without miles of dialogue to read.the quests are pretty much up to you which ones you will take or refuse. there is a lot of ability to create your character your way. Lots of skills, able to choose what stats to up, and...

You will want this game.
I loved the politics behind everything. I slowly made my way through the rebellion only to figure out that the rebellion wasn't all it was cracked up to be. I'm sure if I played as the shappers, I would have felt the exact same way.
When you get about 3/4ths done with the game, you start feeling a serious amount of dread because you know there are no good guys in this plot. I loved it.

Geneforge 4 is a top down RPG that has a very rich story. The fourth installment in the Geneforge series continues the story from Geneforge 3 with several of the characters reappearing and even those from older games being present or at least mentioned. If you've enjoyed any of the previous Geneforge games, chances are you'll also enjoy this one. However, this is a standalone game that you can play through...

I have never written a review on here, but considering this is one of the best games and one of the most underated games ive ever played, ive decided to try my hand at it. Starting off, i know it may say i only have a couple hours on record with the game, but id like to stamp that out now. I played this game years back off an old game engine before steam was a thing, buying it again now is more comfort and support...

The first Geneforge game I played, and still by far my most favourite. This is an excellent game, and one of the best top down, turn based RPGs I have ever played. If you like games like the original Fallout games, or Baldurs Gate, then you have to play this.
I have recently reviewed the entire Geneforge original series in far more depth here, if you wish to read more:...

Geneforge 4: Rebellion is an old-school role-playing game developed and published by Spiderweb Software, a studio renowned for creating expansive RPGs driven by player choice rather than technical spectacle. As the fourth chapter in the Geneforge series, it arrives at a pivotal moment in the saga, throwing players into a continent engulfed by revolution. Instead of serving the authoritarian Shapers as in previous...

There's just something about the Geneforge series. There's something special here. Atmospheric. Unique. Memorable. Oddly nostalgic, even if you've never played it before.

That splash screen awoke something in me when I was younger.
Much more compatible with modern systems than previous entries, and a more refined title in general. IIRC this is the first game where you actually access a Geneforge at the start of the game.

Classic old school RPG. Still holds up well if you are looking for nostalgic fun, or an immersive (largely text-based) adventure. The world-building is what really keeps me playing as the lore is well developed and engaging.

This game uses a newer game engine than the previous three, and the improvements really make a great difference despite how minor some of them are. In this fourth game in the Geneforge series, things are reaching their climax. Once again, the writer does a great job of presenting varied perspectives on the nature of biological research.
