    This game is a must play if you like the rogue like genre. The controls are very responsive. The game really shines in it's guns. There are well over 100+ guns and items. Most of them are puns or a reference. The enemies are varied enough that it doesn't get repetitive. Bosses are always a joy to fight. The one complaint I have is challenge mode is a bit unbalanced right now. But overallThis game is a must play if you like the rogue like genre. The controls are very responsive.

    This game is hard. I never reached beyond level 3. But I had fun. Mechanics are good, multiplayer a lot of fun. Humor and design of enemies get a thump up!

    This game is one if the best dungeon crawlers I've played. It has everything want from challenging gameplay to the NPCS you unlock through your playthrough. The core gameplay is very fun with the variety of enemy's. You have a limited amount of ways to fight which are a dodge roll and a blank. This means you can focus on getting good instead of trying to learn all of the controls. ThereThis game is one if the best dungeon crawlers I've played.

You have a limited amount of ways to fight which are a dodge roll and a blank. This means you can focus on getting good instead of trying to learn all of the controls. There are absolutely tons of guns. I nearly always find a new gun every playthrough after 15 hours of playing. There's everything from your basic AK 47 to a water gun and Mailbox shooter. That is a feature that makes you want to keep playing. Also every floor in the gungeon has new enemy's you'll encounter that have different attacking patterns you'll need to learn. Theres a shop on every floor that you can buy new guns and charms to help you, with the coins you collect from killing monsters. The bosses at the end of each floor are likely to end your run but are very fun and the climax of that floor. The most important thing about a dungeon crawler I think, is replay value. Enter the Gungeon definitely has that as theres NPCS trapped in the Gungeon you need to save that open shops or help you in your future runs. You can fix an elevator to skip floors and buy new charms and guns to find if there weren't enough already. There may o ly be 5 floors (not including secret ones) in the game but the it takes a while to get there and you'll be finding yourself playing even after you do. A must play game at a relatively cheap price.… Expand

    It's a good tasting game. Gameplay is fun, places could be better of course. It is a game to enter and play for 1-2 hours a day.

    This game is a wall that you will bang your head on until your nose is concave, and you cant see.

    This game is so unforgiving that you will want to uninstall it, but you wont.

    This game is an armchair full of razor-wire and meringue.

    This game is your favorite game you just don't know it yet.

    This game is excellent. Ive spent hours on it. This may not be the optimized platform, but that doesn’t matter. This is a game where you can shoot eggs out of a gun called the scrambler and have a space turtle who follows you and a knight who is actually a sentient piece of junk while playing as a disgraced space marine. Yeah, this game is hard. Of you rate it low cuz of that then youThis game is excellent. Ive spent hours on it. This may not be the optimized platform, but that doesn’t matter.

Yeah, this game is hard. Of you rate it low cuz of that then you clearly stumbled into the wrong game. If you like playing your little baby games on the easiest difficulty, go ahead, but don’t **** on this game for being hard, it was designed to be hard and thats okay. Sure i might not get far sometimes, but that feeling when you get a synergy with a grenade launcher and an item that makes you invincible gives me a rush of dopamine that i cant describe. This game’s pixel art is spectacular, each character being detailed with their limited space. The characters themselves are great, the secret unlockables are so fun and the extra stuff never gets old. The bosses are all so unique and great, and don’t even get me started on the gun variety. If theres a game where half your arsenal is an awful pun then i think somebody made the perfect game. I wouldn’t trade my time with this game for anything, thank you dodgeroll, i never knew how much i needed to play as a sentient bullet with a sword till now.… Expand

    Enter The Gungeon is nigh-on perfect. The hits are fine, the gunplay is wonderful, the animation and designs are fantastic, and it really needs to be picked up and played by anybody who isn’t looking for something really casual.

    A successful mix of twin-stick shooter, bullet hell and roguelike, funny and challenging, but lacking enough uniqueness to not feel like something any lover of these genres already played thousands of times.
