Guns, a lot of jumping and shooting, and of course a lot of mayhem. Gun Mayhem Redux is one of the games in the Gun Mayhem series, which I’ve said a while back, is a versus shooting platform browser game. This is the second game after Gun Mayhem, quite differnt from the first one. The characters and maps are a bit minimized for a better perspective while playing. Aside from that, it offers a wide variety of weapons to choose from for you to cause mayhem as much as you want. Since it’s a browser game and a versus mode can be played, both players will be using the same keyboard.
The first player moves using the arrow keys and shoots using z and X keys, while the second player uses WASD to move and use T and Y to shoot. You can play it with a maximum of four players and just set the keys of the third and fourth player.
For those who haven’t played it yet, the interface looks more like stickman cartoon type world where you jump around and shoot each other. It’s not a normal shooting game since it has a platform gameplay in it. You jump around the map while you shoot enemies, it sounds easy but as I was playing this game, it’s quite hard to shoot something that is moving and jumping around. With it’s cartoon-like look, you might think you won’t be able to enjoy playing it since a lot of fancier games are out there, well for me though it looks like a simple game that’s just played by kids, it takes a certain amount of skill to play it well. Which made me play it for a while, I had the chance to check out some of the maps too. Every map is different from each other which makes it more fun. And we tried playing it but just tried it with two players playing the game. With this mode, we did have lots of laughs on the first 5 minutes but then we had fun for the rest of the time we played it.
With all that said, it’s a pretty good game. It’s not just for kids, even people my age might enjoy playing this game. If you haven’t tried playing gunmayhem2.co, Gun Mayhem 3, Gun Mayhem 4 and Gun Mayhem 5, check them out so you yourself can compare it to Gun Mayhem Redox. Have a lot of fun playing!
