BUCKSHOT ROULETTE - A DEADLY GAME OF CHANCE AND NERVES

Buckshot Roulette is a tense indie horror game that transforms a familiar roulette concept into a brutal psychological showdown. Instead of spinning wheels or rolling dice, players face a loaded shotgun, forced to make life-or-death decisions based on logic, probability, and pure nerves. Every turn feels heavy, every choice matters, and hesitation can be fatal.

Set inside a dark, claustrophobic room, the game strips away distractions and focuses entirely on risk. You are not racing, shooting enemies, or solving puzzles-you are gambling with survival itself.

HOW BUCKSHOT ROULETTE IS PLAYED

At its core, Buckshot Roulette is a turn-based survival game built around a modified version of Russian roulette. You sit across from a mysterious opponent known as the Dealer, sharing control of a 12-gauge shotgun loaded with a mix of live shells and blanks.

Each round follows a simple but terrifying loop:

The shotgun is loaded with a known number of live and blank shells
Players take turns choosing where to aim
Every pull of the trigger carries consequences

What makes the game gripping is that you are given partial information, not certainty. You have to calculate odds, remember previous shots, and decide whether to take a risk or play it safe.

Strategic Depth Behind the Fear

Despite its simple rules, Buckshot Roulette is deeply strategic. Winning does not depend on fast reflexes, but on mental discipline and probability management.

Key strategic elements include:

Tracking used shells to estimate remaining danger
Deciding when to pressure the Dealer versus protecting yourself
Using limited items to manipulate outcomes or gain information

As rounds progress, new mechanics and tools appear, forcing players to adapt. The tension escalates naturally as mistakes become more costly and safe options disappear.
