    It's not bad. Had fun with friends and that's what matters. Pickens approves and believes in evolution.

    Gun Monkeys is a small but perfectly formed frantic multi-player blaster. Give it a couple of matches and you'll be wondering what all the fuss is about. Give it a few hours and you will be hooked. Also monkeys with guns; whats not to like?

    Gun Monkeys is a pretty weird game, but a fun game! The game focuses on you taking charge of a modern-day power company. In the distant future, a catastrophic experiment into Perpetual Energy obliterates all human life, and you are the head of this company and you send monkeys to grab power cores but other monkeys are there to steal them as well!

    It is quite a creative game, confusing at first, but the tutorial is a great way for you to start playing the game, the story is great and the actor who voices as the narrator while playing the tutorial and a game will help you on the way as well as keeping you entertained while playing

    The only thing I found a bit awkward was the controls and how un-responsive they are sometimes and that the level designs are not so great, and till what I have played so far, the only mode of play you can play is just a monkey vs. another monkey, maybe I might be wrong, but I wish the developers could add more modes, like team vs. team, and other modes to enjoy this game

    But overall it is a fun game to play when you are bored or feel like playing something different!    … Expand

    If you can find a steady stream of people to play against, you'll discover Gun Monkeys to be tremendous, if rather basic, fun. [Issue#138, p.116]

    Matches are brisk, varied and tense, but you might face a long wait to get one. An idle mode allows you to browse the internet or check emails until a challenge arrives, but alerts are sadly infrequent. Local play is a fine substitute if you have a willing partner, but Gun Monkeys is a two-player game too often lacking a player two.

    As long as you don't come in with any expectations above a simple arena combat game, Gun Monkeys is a great way to spend a weekend. It takes the basic idea of competitive 2D platforming and runs with it, which can result in some pretty high-octane skill-heavy matches, which, in short spurts, I had a blast with. Just keep in mind that you may need to fall back to local play when the server population slows to a crawl.
