Showgunners is a strategy game featuring turn-based combat. The player participates in a gruesome futuristic reality show, fighting psychopathic hunters on arenas filled with traps and dangers.
Showgunners is a strategy game revolving around tactical turn-based combat. It was developed by the Polish studio Artificer, founded by Kacper Szymczak, the main designer of Phantom Doctrine and Hard West.
The game is set in a grim imagining of the future, one of its most popular pastimes being a brutal reality show, the participants of which must survive a hunt by hired mercenaries.
The game's main character is Scarlett Martillo. She joins the competition to exact revenge on those associated with the show.
Showgunners is a tactical game revolving around battles taking place in closed arenas. The gameplay is turn-based, with use of cover and the environment being crucial.
Over time, Scarlett manages to recruit some allies to her team. All characters have unique abilities we can develop. Equipping them with progressively better weaponry and gear is also very important. Each map features optional bonus objective, completing which unlocks additional equipment and characters.
The arenas are filled with dangers, traps but also possible advantages to exploit. The game is made more diverse thanks to the AI director, who can make our lives easier or more difficult depending on how the battle's going.
Winning encounters grants us fame, which results in more money and more generous sponsors providing unique benefits.
The game only supports singleplayer.
Showgunners features appealing 3D visuals viewed from isometric camera angles, their main strengths being the imaginative character and location designs.

Game Ratings for Showgunners Video Game.
Saving Content: 4 / 5 by Scott Ellison II
Showgunners is a true spectacle that stays true to its format for a game that doesn’t overstay its welcome. The turn-based gameplay is really smart, and the third-person real-time movement is a nice change of pace for the genre. It’s scripted fun you can save scum to your hearts content, or die a glorious death in ironman mode. Homicidal All-Stars is not a show I would watch, but I definitely enjoyed taking part in its vision of the future of reality and game shows. Showgunners is not tactically dense, though it offers a uniquely tight turn-based experience you should definitely pick-up.
TheSixthAxis: 8 / 10 by Nick Petrasiti
In its looks and execution, Showgunners does what it set out to do and creates a turn-based love letter to the 90s, updating those themes for a modern audience, while still somehow not managing to lose authenticity. It's a job well done and I'd much like to explore this universe further in the future.
GBAtemp: 8 / 10 by Ben Sellwood
ShowGunners is a fantastic-looking game that delivers violence and gameplay in droves. If you're looking for something none-too taxing then this could be right up your alley! Not sure yet? Try the demo first!
