A combination of several different genres, including a simulation and a strategy. Hunter Roulette is a cyberpunk variation on playing Russian roulette. We can aim the weapon at us or at our opponents, as well as form (and break) alliances. There are also various props and skills to make the gameplay more interesting.
It might seem that Russian roulette is based on such simple rules and nothing new can be introduced. We first found out that this was not true in December 2023, when the game Buckshot Roulette debuted.
Over time, the independent studio Pili Starship, which is behind the game Hunter Roulette described here, also contributed its two cents to this topic. The game eludes clear genre classification and it lies somewhere on the border of a simulation and a strategy title.
In Hunter Roulette we watch the action from a first-person perspective (FPP). The game transports us to a post-apocalyptic, cyberpunk world, where life unfolds under the irradiated surface of the Earth. The titular game of life and death serves as a source of entertainment for those who managed to survive.
At first glance, the gameplay in Hunter Roulette does not differ from what we know from Russian roulette. During the "game", we sit at the table with other daredevils and hold a gun loaded with blanks and real bullets in our hand. If we are lucky, after aiming at our own head and pulling the trigger, the gun will not fire, and we will have the opportunity to take another shot. However, if we are less lucky, we will get shot, reducing our health indicator.
Hunter Roulette differs in many ways from the original game. It allows us to compete not only with ourselves, but also with other participants of the game. We can form alliances with players aimed at specific participants. This is done while being careful not to fall victim to betrayal. On the other hand, we can also turn against our own allies.
A single shot does not end our life here, but only takes away one of the hearts symbolizing our "health" level. Although emptying this indicator means the end of the game, thanks to so-called Frenzy Points, we can attack even when we have 0 HP.
Individual game participants can also influence the course of the game by using various props. Among them, we will find items that increase the level of life or damage dealt, provide the ability to take two shots in one turn, or even allow us to create explosive combinations. The complement to all of this are the characters, which have been diversified in terms of health bar length, unique abilities, and preferred weapons.
We can play Hunter Roulette alone or in multiplayer mode over the Internet. The game allows for duels based on 1 vs. 1 vs. 1 and 2 vs. 2 rules. We can also count on a ranking mode and seasonal challenges. In addition, there are story elements waiting to be explored here, allowing us to get to know individual characters better, as well as learn more about the game world.
