- Buckshot Roulette is a pretty smart mix of strategy, luck, and horror, taking a simple premise and making it a memorable experience.
Tahmid Mahi · Jul 08, 2026 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Buckshot Roulette has tension and drama, enough strategy to make gameplay not fully dependent on luck, and the fact that the dealer doesn’t always make the right move just puts it over the top.
Eugene Sax · Jun 02, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Providing a short but semi-sweet experience, Buckshot Roulette ups the stakes and the fire power of Russian roulette. While the opportunities for deeper strategies often become muddled by the core mechanic of luck, there are still some worthwhile white-knuckled moments that will test your mettle.
Corvo Rohwer · Apr 22, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Ultimately, Buckshot Roulette is a fun little distraction that the former stats teacher in me wishes had been fleshed out just a touch more. There’s enough content here to entertain for an hour or so, and while it won’t be the best hour of gameplay you experience this year, it’ll probably be one of the more memorable. Give it a try, and support the developer (Mike Klubnika), so that he can make a sequel where you play Poker against a horrifically toothy version of Clifford the Big Red Dog.
Paul Broussard · Apr 18, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - I wish there was just 10% more though, just a little extra dimension that could give the game a little more depth, but at the same time it's pretty clear that Buckshot Roulette is exactly what the creator wanted, and that's something to admire. Eventually, there will also be multiplayer, which is absolutely brilliant, but until then, it's still highly recommended.
Magnus Groth-Andersen · Apr 12, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Buckshot Roulette is an oddly addicting beast. What starts as a series of frustrating dice rolls quickly progresses into a gripping, sinister experience that commands you to keep at it and master its dark payload. It quickly became a game I wanted to run in a window alongside other things, an interstitial challenge I can summon at will. The horrifying maw of the Dealer loomed in the darkness, and I was hungry to keep finding creative ways to force feed him buckshot.
Ash Wayling · Apr 05, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Buckshot Roulette is a short game with plenty of appeal, whether through its replayability, strategy, or grisly charm.
Chris White · Apr 04, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Its creepy art style and unsettling atmosphere will immediately draw you into Buckshot Roulette — but it's its quick-and-dirty Russian roulette gameplay that will keep you coming back. It's easy to play, but to succeed you'll need to keep your wits about you, and that makes for a really successful little game.
Kim Snaith · Apr 04, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Buckshot Roulette is an adrenaline-fueled gameplay experience that unfolds roughly under twenty minutes. While surprisingly short, it manages to maintain its twisted, macabre thrill.
