[6][7] Released on 28 December 2023, Buckshot Roulette became popular online in early 2024 and was praised by critics and players for its strategic gameplay and replay value.

At the start of each round, the computer-controlled Dealer loads the shotgun with a specified number of red live shells and bluish-gray blanks in a random order.

This loop is repeated until they lose, which will force the player to restart completely, or leave with an amount of cash equal to their points.

[19][20] The game begins with the player in a dilapidated bathroom, which features an old computer monitor and a bottle of pills on the countertop after first defeating the Dealer.

If the player is defeated in sudden death, they are shown to be entering a rusted, bronze gate with metallic spikes jutting into an all-white sky, presumably Heaven.

The camera reveals a man working on a van's engine, a waste container and a boombox on top of a pile of pallets outside, before swerving to a drain that leads to a room underneath the rave where the game takes place.

[25][15][26] It has been noted for its similarity to Inscryption, with multiple reviewers commending the strategic element introduced by the game's item system.
