Review of Squirrel With A Gun

Squirrel With A Gun is a quirky indie title developed by Dee Dee Creations and published by Maximum Entertainment. This passion project game offers a unique blend of action, adventure, physics, and shooting elements that will leave players entertained and intrigued.

As the player, you control a squirrel on a mission to gather acorns. However, your task is not easy as some mysterious secret agents have locked away the biggest acorn in a vault. Your journey begins as you navigate through the vault, learning the game’s control scheme and facing off against Agent Clutz.

Once you escape the base, you’ll find yourself in a suburb where you’ll spend the majority of your gameplay. This vibrant suburb is divided into sections, each offering its own set of collectibles. The golden acorns are crucial for unlocking weapons and eventually a vehicle to take on challenges like battling a tank.

Squirrel With A Gun is a truly wild experience with unconventional ways to obtain these golden acorns. From playing basketball to helping a groom off a roof, the game’s humor shines through. The variety of weapons, including pistols, shotguns, and explosives, adds to the chaos as you navigate through the game’s physics-driven world.


While the game’s visuals and animations may have some rough edges, the overall experience is still enjoyable. The soundtrack adds to the mayhem, with memorable tunes that will stick with you long after you’ve finished playing. The only downside lies in the somewhat light and twitchy controls, which can make platforming challenging at times.

With a playtime of 2-3 hours, Squirrel With A Gun offers a brief but entertaining experience at a reasonable price point. Fans of quirky indie games like Goat Simulator and Untitled Goose Game will find themselves right at home in this zany world. Give Squirrel With A Gun a try and see why it’s a standout in the realm of fun wacky indie games.
