Gun aim accuracy is terrible; The angle I point the pistol in is different from the angle that the pistol fires in. This game isn't worth keeping...Boomstick is far better.

This could be a pretty cool game if it wasn't impossible to make progress, and obviously by design. I'm always disappointed when games are purposely laid out so as to exploit users into paying for a winning experience. With no clear and creative path to victory without a purchase, those involved in its design should count themselves lucky one star is being given for a rigged game.

When I saw this game again (used to play it in 2019) I was sad because I thought the old endless mode was deleted when I saw all the new screenshots. Nope! They just added 3 new game modes! You can still play the old endless mode by going missions > endless. It's the same old game I used to play, just with 3x the content (new campaign, ricochet, and grenade thrower modes). Why I gave 4 stars? Ads are a little spammy but it's only $1 to remove ads permanently. Blood is black for some reason now?

Gunner has been my hands down favorite ultimate & only game I've invested in since I discovered it 5-6 yrs ago.The only HUGE (-) is that any hard fought previous progress, money saved and arsenal accumulated are not saved and carried over when logging on a new device, etc... Each time this has happened to me, it takes months to begin again playing this game.I have boughtover $5000 worth of products featured in the games ads as well over time. I believe this is extremely relevant.

Update: I deleted my former review. I'm having a hard time, and currently stuck on Level 25. Idk how to win. Maybe I'm not fast enough. I have a boomstick, but then my opponent has a sub machine gun. I have a tommy gun, and my opponent has a boomstick. That's where I noticed how effective the boomstick was, so I got it...and now I'm getting blown away by sub machine guns.... Idk what to upgrade to. I'm lost, and there's no YouTube tutorial.. I want to kill some ragdoll hitmen dammit...

I've had the game since 2019 and at first I was hooked, it was simple, adds got you more coins, there were no forced ads, AND EVERYTHING IS FREE, if you need more coins watch an ad if you don't have internet just kill your character in the shop and you'll earn a coin every time. The game went idle for about 3 years with no updates until recently and now..... It's officially my all time favorite pass time game, new guns, new levels, new skins, new armor, new everything!

The game is fun to play and really enticed me to purchase coins and go ad free. However, after doing so, like another reviewer mentioned, the upgrades to the armor didn't help in the longevity of your character. I had the Banos armor and still got knocked off the platform as if I didn't have any armor as well. I'm not expecting the upgrades to make my character invicible but $15 should help in keeping my guy from just being pushed off the platform.

It's fun but i have some issues. Most of the enemy bullets do to much knock back making armor almost useless i have an idea tho. What if you added an upgrade thing that increases your character weight🚛 so you can use bigger weapons more easily without launching your self off the platform and take less knock back from bullets🛡🔫. And please make the crates not rigged😠

Buying new weapons and armor is pointless, and way too expensive. The equipment is never actually an upgrade, it all sucks, so it's a waste of time. The 3-star system is poorly thought out, and sometimes even impossible because enemies land on the stars. The recoil is absurdly high, not "realistic" like the company has claimed in some responses, and there is no way to aim the guns, you essentially just guess where the bullets will go. The worst of all the BYV games by far.

It is a very good game and very simple. The only thing is, its kind of hard to get coins it should be easier. I'd like to see an update with better shooting mechanics, like smooth turning and updated hitboxes. Sometimes it doesn't register as a hit ,whenever I shoot someone and I end up getting killed. Nevertheless it is a very great game and I enjoy it.
