Guncho's core mechanic is based on a unique shooting mechanic. By moving, shooting, and unloading bullets, you influence Guncho's revolver cylinder rotation. To outwit your enemies, align your bullets with the hex-grid through clever tactical moves.



You can also use the environment to overcome the challenges of each level by targeting explosive barrels or pushing your foes into fire or deadly cacti.



After each level, choose from a variety of bullet upgrades and skills to further improve your tactical abilities. In each run, you face a final boss that will test your skills and tactical finesse.
