Let's Play "Buckshot Roulette" - Single Player Mode
Buckshot Roulette is a Russian Roulette shotgun game where players compete gamble their lives for money. The game is very simple, and almost completely luck based, but each turn you get a bunch of tool to add a strategic aspect to the game. For its simplicity, Buckshot Roulette very addictive!
Despite me not loving actual gambling, especially when the bet is on life itself, I found this game really fun. Each decision made me feel anticipation, and when I time my tool usage well, I felt actually smart. For a luck game, this does enough to give the players the illusion of agency! Tools include Handcuffs to stop my opponent's next turn, or Glasses to see the current bullet. Even a future phone that tells you one of the next bullets position.
In this post I'll be featuring the Single Player Mode playthrough, though I dabbled a bit in the Online Mode after this. If you want me to post them, tell me in the comments.
I bought it extremely cheaply on sale and played it for a while. I think it has a rather curious and innovative dynamic in how you gamble on your own survival and death. I tried playing online but never found a player. After a while, I uninstalled it because it seemed to get stuck in the same loop over and over again.
Well, I think it's a game that's very fun for 3 hours then becomes boring. But those hours are really, really fun!!!
Completely agree my friend! Nice post by the way!
