Rudy On Rails

By Andrew K. Lawston

"Brought back fond memories of playing Shadowrun and Cyberpunk 2020 "

Pittsburgh, 2049. Following a sophisticated cyber-attack on the futuristic city's high-tech AI systems, a small band of hackers, geeks, and bystanders find themselves with limited powers to control electronics. Sometimes.

Together they will discover the terrifying secret behind... Pittsburgh's trains running on time.

Comedy cyberpunk adventure from the author of Zip Zap Boing and Apocalypse Barnes.

Conceived as part of the collective "Street Shamans" project, this standalone cyberpunk adventure set in the City of Bridges, Pittsburgh, Rudy on Rails is perfect for fans of Neal Stephenson, Warren Ellis, William Gibson, and Rudy Rucker, among others.
