Rave Reviews:

"Without question one of, if not the best, roguelike game I've ever played." ... "Crazy-good roguelike, very challenging and extremely fun. Cannot recommend more highly!" – Steam review

"...a game that's quite fun & enjoyable & original & interesting. We don't get that often." – Jim Sterling @jimsterling

Gunman Taco Truck is one of MacWorld's "The 10 Mac Games You Need To Play" in January 2017

"Rather than a silly kids’ game, Gunman Taco Truck is a competent action roguelike with some strategy and planning elements thrown in for good measure. Instead of a simple distraction, there is a robust game here that is going to provide quite a challenge, and you’ll see a significant amount of gameplay before you reach the end. There are also decals to collect along the way, and there are various routes that you can take across the country, so expect to spend quite a bit of time with the game if you want to see everything. It can be a bit tedious to have to replay the early parts of the game over and over as you start from scratch each time, but as you progress it feels good to get a bit further. All in all, Gunman Taco Truck is quite fun, and it surprised me with just how much game hides just behind the vibrant, silly surface." – TechRaptor

Gunman Taco Truck was designed by Donovan Brathwaite-Romero when he was 9 years old. The game idea was so good that his parents, John and Brenda Romero, decided to make its development a family project. Over 2 years and lots of fun have gone into making Gunman Taco Truck an unforgettable experience, and the realization of Donovan's dream of making a video game. Donovan has been learning how to code for the past 3 years.

### 1/5 — Softlock

*2026-04-26, version 1.2.8*

At the mechanic’s, the stupid tutorial thing keeps pointing at a product I can’t get to. Fix. Your. Game. I can’t even fix my dang truck because of it! I’m gonna freaking die because I can’t repair!

It is a very fun game

### 4/5 — PLEASE FIX

*2025-03-23, version 1.2.8*

The screen doesn’t fit my phone (iPhone 15), it doesn’t sound like a big deal but everything that’s off screen it’s like all the important stuff.

### 4/5 — The size is too big for my phone

*2025-02-14, version 1.2.8*

The size is too big for my phone and it won’t give me an option to adjust screen size

### 4/5 — Things changed

*2024-12-30, version 1.2.8*

I loved this game so re-downloaded it. It’s permanently zoomed in now tho so I can’t see the whole screen anymore when I’m playing. I tried to figure it out but it looks like it’s just how it looks now. Hopefully that changes and I can play again someday.

### 3/5 — Won’t fit to screen

*2024-12-14, version 1.2.8*

Great game but only can play it a few minutes before having to restart because the screen size won’t fit to my iPhone 11. There’s no option that I can find to fix it.

### 1/5 — UPDATEIT

*2024-12-11, version 1.2.8*

No questions. Update it please.

### 5/5 — bug question

*2024-11-18, version 1.2.8*

iPhone 11 玩这款游戏，会使屏幕显示不全，但是挺好玩的

### 1/5 — Relatively unplayable

*2024-11-09, version 1.2.8*

At least on iPhone it seems like the port doesn’t fit the screen so you get locked into menus or tutorials and cannot progress because you cannot click on something off screen, fun game. Unplayable on iPhone even for the 15 pro max.
