Mothergunship is a very interesting proposal that combines elements of crafteo, action and roguelike with great success. Entering the battlefield and erasing all our enemies from the map with the intention of gathering new pieces with which to customize our next weapon is terribly addictive. A demanding, fun and ideal for quick games, which no fan of action games should miss.

MOTHERGUNSHIP is a upgraded version of Tower of Guns. It features more random levels, more enemies with bigger guns and an ability to create your own weapons using gunsmith mode. It's a great game for everyone who loves quick moves, dodging bullets and going for the best time possible.

Mothergunship is definitely able to deliver some fun. That is, if you are lucky enough for the game to generate interesting arenas.

MOTHERGUNSHIP is tons of fun to play, but it's also that kind of FPS that doesn't really evolve the more you play. The ability to create weapon "cocktails" is simply awesome, but the action itself is way too repetitive to let that shine.

Let’s be clear! Without no doubt, Mothergunship is one of the best old-school shooters that we have seen in these years. With addictive gameplay and super amazing gun customization (that lead to creation of really insane guns), Mothergunship takes you to one of your funniest and also challenging adventures that you have experienced so far. Mothergunship is an old-school first person shooter that you must not to lose.

Take the fight to the enemy in this roguelike, bullet-hell FPS from Grip Digital.

Mothergunship has some interesting ideas and unique gameplay mechanics, but it doesn't deliver as enjoyable of an experience as it may seem on paper. The gunplay is lackluster, weapon crafting isn't as extensive as you might hope, and the roguelike design elements mostly work against the game.

Mothergunship is not flawless, but its fast-paced gameplay really makes the difference. Mothergunship mixes some good elements of other FPS titles with its own innovations such as great weapon-making system, and provides a unique and very fun experience.

With addictive gameplay and an unprecedented combination of several creative mechanics, Mothergunship not only pays tribute to famous and essential titles of the FPS genre, such as Doom, Quake and Wolfenstein, but also became a mandatory game on PlayStation 4 to those raised by these franchises.

Having said that, I still recommend that you play MOTHERGUNSHIP on PlayStation 4. The build-your-own-guns gameplay mechanic is fun, and it forces you to think a bit outside the box as you balance how you use the parts you purchase with those you're sometimes forced to use for a mission to create something that is useful and not too powerful to use for a long period of time

Unique action game with total firepower and cool modular gun-crafting systems. However later a bit eventless.

Your enjoyment of Mothergunship is going to be dependent on how much you liked Tower of Guns. Even though other games are starting to adopt the style, the fast pace is still refreshing, and the enemy variety could be better. Players will have tons of fun trying to make up new and ridiculous guns, but they'll also curse the game when it becomes so hard that they lose all of the parts they worked so hard to get. Mothergunship looks and sounds great, and with new modes and items coming in from future patches, there's still some enjoyment to be had after defeating the game. For shooting fans, Mothergunship is well worth checking out.

Mothergunship is a game with brilliant ideas and an extremely fast paced and engaging gameplay. Though some ideas work, others leave you dissapointed but all in all it can be amusing for a couple of hours

MOTHERGUNSHIP gives you everything you expect from a FPS Bullet hell. Which is to say that there are a lot of bullets, both to dodge and to fire. It is a frenetic and chaotic shooter with a great crafting system that makes the whole thing feel like LEGO had an angry baby with Doom.

Mothergunship is a fusion of good ideas and good mechanics let down by some poor design choices and inexcusable bugs, but what's here is a good foundation for Grip Digital to build and improve upon.

It's hard to talk about Mothergunship without mentioning Tower of Guns, but seeing as that was my go-to game for four months straight, I can't really consider that a problem.

As an FPS, Mothergunship and its amazing gun crafting is an improvement on what came before. As a roguelike, the game fails at the basics, providing an overly randomized system and lackluster progression.

The fast-paced bullet hell action doesn’t always mesh with the restricted peripheral view, and the game’s challenge wanders into unfair territory at times, but there’s a confident style about the game that’s endearing

Mothergunship could have easily been a failure, but somehow it comes together as a creative and inventive package.

Mothergunship is a special kind of game. It combines the right about of bullet hell shooting, tosses in some platforming and makes you laugh at the same time. Lots of things to blow up, lots of cool gun configurations, tons of secrets to find and a game that you won’t tire of so easily.
