    Very enjoyable title! Perfect entry to the genre for me, as the gameplay is fun and very accessible. Also, what’s remarkable in these times, the game is well optimized and has very few bugs. I am definitely looking forward to seeing some DLCs now.

    Having only played fantasy turn based games like divinity (in which i got 160hrs+) i wasn't expecting much from a shooter, but i was intrigued to finally give one a go and I had blast playing it! Characters have fun abilities and actually many of them! Lack of abilities and mostly just shooting was my biggest worry going in to a tactical shooter, but i was worried for nothing.

There are a lot of abilities! Melee kill chain setups with Scarlett once you unlock enough perks are so satisfying! Itemization, character progression, sponsorship bonuses, new characters as i progressed, it never got stale or boring. Highly recommend to anyone that likes turn based games (even if you thought you'd never enjoy a shooter tactical game).… Expand

    Not perfect, but very enjoyable game. I really like it. If You like Gears Tactics, Mario + Rabbids® Kingdom Battle, and other simple turn-based not overly complicated games, this one is for You. I'm 40yo, I don't have much time and I tried some of the older AAA titles, but they all require at least a day or two just for getting into a game, have tons of texts and interaction.

I'm a simple man, I need simpler games, like they used to be in late 90's and early 00's, not like nowadays, when everything has to have TONS of content, super hyper large open world, etc.

    I don't need that, I need entertainment, no hyper depth required.    … Expand

    SHOWGUNNERS can be a mediocre game that doesn't offer anything new in terms of gameplay or visual design. Lack of originality, confusing gameplay, and technical issues may make this game not a recommended choice for online shooter fans.

    There’s nothing groundbreaking about Showgunners, but the game engagingly blends turn-based combat with real-time exploration and uncomplicated yet intellectually challenging puzzles. Despite some degree of repetitiveness, the dragged-out ending, and a couple of other shortcomings, I believe Showgunners deserves giving it a chance.

    If you like Running Man style movies, this time you can experience for yourself what it's like to be both hunter and victim at the same time. A successful combination of exploring the environment with real-time traps and puzzles and intuitive turn-based battles creates a fun and unconventional experience.

    A fast-paced mix of turn-based tactics and action elements. Partly confusing combat areas with cool events. Little tactical depth.
