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.

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

This game is just fun. It's a big smashy explody mess of a game that's willing to do things like hand you over twenty jumps and just see what you do with them. I went through one stage with four shotguns, which actually was pretty damn effective. There's a ton to like here, and quite a bit of character and charm for such a simple setup and loop.

There really aren't many other shooters out there that offer this sort of blend of comedy, speed, chaos, and gun customization.

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

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.

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

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

Video game therapy has never been so explodey. Mothergunship is a funny, exciting and creative take on an otherwise simple premise.

It's fast, frantic and fun, but with so many loading screens and conversations to get through, the immersion breaks down leaving a frustrating shooter that's a little overpried.

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.

Welcome to the gun show, population you! Saving the last of humanity is somehow your responsibility in this fast, frantic bullet-dodging FPS where if you have the parts, you can build the best gun.

However fun it might look, some core parts of the game feel forgotten, abandoned or ignored. It's such a great concept and that makes it so sad it didn't even feel like a diamond in the rough.

MOTHERGUNSHIP is a great FPS with some laugh out loud dialogue and a deeply entertaining gun crafting mechanic. While the roguelike elements bring the game down, it's still a delightful little game to fire up during the AAA summer drought.

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.

If you're interested in nonstop shooting, you can definitely enjoy MOTHERGUNSHIP. Everyone else should wait a bit longer to figure out how'll the developers deal with its current issues.

MOTHERGUNSHIP is dripping with personality and style. It excels in its end game when it reveals it has an Endless mode, then “Nightmare” difficulties, and ways to grind XP to make you stronger and faster. Crafting guns is far and away the best thing about the game. It’s a shame you can’t save any of them as a favorite, but knowing that you can form a window, or something that looks out of a cartoon is just such a highlight. MOTHERGUNSHIP is one of those games that you keep going back to see what other crazy shit you can make.
