### 4/5 — Fun game

*2026-08-27*

Great stuff. Steep but short learning curve and a fair bit of replay value. Not cheap for current level of variety though - but has potential for so many different directions it could go in and I just hope the devs build this out!

### 4/5 — Customisation

*2026-08-22*

The game it’s self is fun but I think some character customisation would be a nice addition, ones you can get for completing challenges, ect

### 4/5 — Good game but difficult and plagued by unfair deaths

*2026-08-14*

This is a difficult game to understand at first, and when you do understand it, there are still a lot of situations that are random or just plain old bugs, especially noticeable at the harder levels. This tarnishes the otherwise fun experience, good gameplay and excellent music.

### 2/5 — It’s a demo

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.6*

Not a game, a trial

### 2/5 — That’s it?

*2026-07-29*

That’s the game?

### 5/5 — It’s peak

*2026-07-17, version 1.1.6*

Ooh I am hypnotising you to go download GUNCHO ooh do it for me the king of England

### 5/5 — Very good game and I have suggestions

*2026-07-15, version 1.1.6*

One way to make the game better is to allow the player to shoot bullets even when your not going to shoot a player or a barrel, this way you can shoot to destroy Cacti, wooden walls or even ricochet your bullets off of the walls. Other than that it’s a great game and I enjoy playing it.

### 3/5 — Back to start!

*2026-07-14*

Game is pretty good but it's really dumb that you have to go back all the way to level one if you lose a level and don't want to watch a long ad or pay. And sometimes it will say there are no ads available and you have no choice but to restart from level one!

### 5/5 — Kann man immer wieder spielen

*2026-07-07*

Das Spiel ist jeden Cent Wert. Es macht super viel Spaß, wenn man gerne taktiert und man kann es immer wieder zwischendurch mal spielen.

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2026-07-07*

Petit jeux très sympathique et pas si facile. Bravo

### 5/5 — Best game ever!

*2026-07-06*

Addictive, challenging, funny

### 5/5 — It good

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.6*

It good

### 5/5 — I'm so Guncho-pilled

*2026-06-27, version 1.1.6*

This game is genuinely some of the most fun I've had with both a mobile game and a turn-based roguelike in a VERY long time. It took me less than a day to fall in love with the gameplay and actually buy the game. Absolute 10/10 and I would recommend ANYONE to play this game.

### 3/5 — Great Game, short and becomes repetitive

*2026-06-24*

I love a hexagonal turn based game, and GUNCHO is a great example of one. Tactical and good gameplay my only issue is it suffers after you’ve completed it. Yes there is an expert mode and daily but there’s not enough depth to keep me playing. Needs an expansion or further modes to keep it going.

### 4/5 — 5£ for what?

*2026-06-13*

The game is very cool. However 5£ just to remove the ads is too much. Tha game just have the same 5 levels and the same boss. It’s a bit monotonous. The story should continue

### 5/5 — Excelente, mas…

*2026-06-09*

O jogo de fato é muito bom, mas não recomendo a compra, pois eu comprei achando que os outros modos seriam diferentes, e a única vantagem de fato foi a falta dos anúncios, que na versão gratuita já era opcional assistir ou não em troca de recompensas. O conteúdo do jogo em si é o mesmo na versão paga, Espero que futuramente haja uma expansão com novas fases pois de fato o único “Defeito” em minha opinião é ser um jogo muito curto

### 1/5 — Лажа...

*2026-08-23*

При чем полная!

### 1/5 — Eh.

*2026-07-18, version 1.1.6*

GUNCHO is bad, very boring and confusing.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-07-13, version 1.1.6*

Horrible instructions when you start.  Character moves and there is no time or reason as to when he fires.  If you go too quick the instructions disappear and you are left touching all over your screen to try and get something to happen. Very poor start up design.

### 1/5 — Forced ads

*2026-06-24, version 1.1.6*

I understand why apps have ads. But forcing ads to restart which is already a limited and established game mechanic is shallow. Most apps have ads for time saved or additional free currency. This is a blatant and annoying cash grab. If the game wasn’t a whopping 5 dollars I might consider buying it but not one bit now.

### 1/5 — too simple

*2026-05-25, version 1.1.6*

i left a good review at first bc there was a good update…but that was a long time ago. I thought dev would keep improving but after beating the game on highest difficulty, its hardly worth what you paid. I’d if the game is 99 cents then its 5 stars

### 1/5 — Pay to play not even win

*2026-05-21, version 1.1.6*

Can’t get passed the third level no matter what I do. Seems to be capped to prevent any free play. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — ADS

*2026-05-02, version 1.1.6*

ADS

### 1/5 — Zéro

*2026-04-08*

Un jeu sans traduction 🤡le dictat des ricains🤡🤡🤡🤡partout toujours et encore…..
Aussitôt installé aussitôt dégagé !!!

### 1/5 — No landscape

*2025-12-18, version 1.1.6*

App doesn’t rotate or play in landscape mode. No “Best on iPhone” verbiage. Straight port. Avoid if using iPad.

### 1/5 — Incorrect game price

*2025-12-03, version 1.1.6*

Ingame game purchase stated games was $4.99. I was charged $10.77 on my card. What a scam

### 5/5 — Puzzle Gun Game

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.6*

It took me over a year to realize this is probably pronounced as GUN-show

Anyway, I literally played this like every day. It’s very interesting puzzle gun game with power level ups that you get to choose.  

The only thing I don’t like about it is the boss kind of sucks. He has a completely different pattern than the rest of the enemies. And a lot of your talents that you gained while leveling up don’t help you at all on the last level.

It’s like the boss was an afterthought   

I tend to play the randomized challenges that have no boss.  Just more and more enemies. 

5 stars

### 5/5 — 정말 잘 만든 게임

*2026-08-27*

처음에 컨텐츠가 별로 없다고 생각했는데 퍼즐이 꿀잼입니다. 도전 과제에 퍼즐 1000레벨이 있는걸 보니 아직 멀었네요.

### 5/5 — Très satisfait

*2026-08-25*

Sincèrement cela fais longtemps que je n’ai pas jouer à un jeu aussi addictif. De plus la mécanique de jeu est vrm original.

### 5/5 — First Full Game Purchase

*2026-08-25*

There is the reason this is the only game I've purchased on iPhone ever. 
It's like western chess.

### 5/5 — Игра класс! Побольше бы таких

*2026-08-15*

Классная игра, понравилось, что у нее есть конец, жаль что короткая. Эта одна из немногих игр, в которой хочется купить продолжение, чтобы посмотреть, что дальше будет.
Видно что игра сделана с душой, спасибо!)

### 5/5 — good

*2026-08-08, version 1.1.6*

guncho2 plz

### 5/5 — Х ком

*2026-08-04*

Отличная игра офлайн. Подумать

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-08-01, version 1.1.6*

The game is just perfect. It’s unique. It’s fun. And you don’t NEED to pay.

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2026-07-18*

I like all the games by this developer. I'm finding this one hard but in an addictive way! Sometimes it's tricky to predict the outcomes of a move but it doesn't feel random, more like you just have to learn the different behaviours and get better at figuring it out over time. I do think the game would benefit from a shallower difficulty curve though and/or an easy mode. The number of enemies/waves you face gets harder very quickly! 

Look forward to more games from this dev!

### 5/5 — IMPORTANT FEEDBACK

*2026-07-17, version 1.1.6*

This game is great you should definitely add a 1 v 1 mode where the 2 players take turns on the same phone.
