Description from IGDB IGDB

Buckshot Roulette is a tabletop horror game that attempts to re-design the infamous game of Russian Roulette, replacing the traditional revolver with a proper 12-gauge pump-action shotgun. This extra firepower, and more importantly the different mechanics in handling a shotgun compared to a revolver, offers a fresh take on the classic and deadly game of chance. The game takes place at the top of an underground nightclub, where the metal railings tremble to the pulse of long lost drum machines. A crooked AI dealer is waiting for you. Will you meet them?

Wikipedia Description WIKIPEDIA

The regular game mode involves the player playing a modified game of Russian roulette in a nightclub with a mysterious entity known as "The Dealer", using an eight round pump action shotgun instead of the revolver traditionally used in Russian roulette. The game consists of three rounds. At the start of each round, the computer-controlled Dealer loads the shotgun with a specified number of red live shells and blueish-gray blanks in a random order. The player then chooses to shoot either the Dealer or themself. If the shell is live, whoever was shot loses a life and the shotgun is forfeited to the Dealer, who plays their turn. If the player shoots themself with a blank, they take another turn. Lives are represented by defibrillator charges administered by a scorekeeping machine, starting with two charges on round 1, four on round 2, and five on round 3; the first party to deplete all their charges loses the round. The player and the Dealer can respawn indefinitely during rounds 1 and 2, but during round 3, the defibrillator's wires are cut, leaving the affected party in "sudden death" mode, forcing the player to restart from the beginning if they lose. If the shotgun's magazine is emptied and neither party has lost all their charges, the Dealer reloads the shotgun with another load of shells. Starting in round 2, a random set of consumable items is distributed to both the player and the Dealer before every turn, giving each party different advantages; two are given during round 2 and four during round 3. Both the player and the Dealer can possess a maximum of 8 items. When the Dealer has been defeated, an endless game mode called "Double or Nothing" can be accessed if the player takes optional pills at the beginning of the game. In Double or Nothing, a random number of items is given at the start of every round along with a random number of charges. Upon defeating the Dealer, the player is rewarded with up to 70,000 points, based on how long it took. They are then prompted to either leave normally or continue the game, doubling their earnings if they win another three rounds. This loop is repeated until they lose, which forces the player to restart completely or leave with an amount of cash equal to their points. On April 4, 2024, along with the release of the Steam version, four new items exclusive to Double or Nothing were introduced: the Burner Phone, the Inverter, the Adrenaline, and the Expired Medicine. On October 31, 2024, a multiplayer mode was released for up to 4 players. Two items were added exclusively for multiplayer games: the Jammer and the Remote.
