Guns, Gore and Cannoli might only last a couple of hours, bit it can be picked up for a low price of $9.99, and I’d highly recommend any fan of the genre to check this game out immediately. Godfather + Metal Slug + Zombies = Guns, Gore, and Cannoli.
Guns, Gore & Cannoli is a short experience, which sadly lasts about two hours. It goes straight to the point, but fades away too quickly, leaving dust and nothing else.
Metal Slug but 10x better, fun gameplay, high entertainment factor. Local Co-Op: great! Recommended for everyone! 9,99$ for a great game with lots of suprises, easter eggs and achievements make it winner success formula!
Great game with a cool storyline and graphics! Funny quotes and the different levels make it a no brainer for me. Price is in my eyes even too low for what you get! 10/10
The exaggerated voice acting fits perfectly with the tone of the title and the story is surprisingly entertaining too. There’s never a dull moment in Guns, Gore & Cannoli, and it ends just at the right time too.
Guns, Gore & Cannoli is a fresh 2D side scrolling action that knows how to entertain with his good variety and gameplay, similar to that of immortal classic like Metal Slug.
While the star is undoubtedly the cartoony art design with its hand drawn backgrounds and animations that make you feel like watching a mafia show on Adult Swim the mechanics are as conservative as can be.
If the studio behind this game could have pushed the idea further, it might have become a must-have. Still, it's a very solid game, particularly played with a friend, and a good choice if you're looking for a Metal Slug-like experience.
An awesome cartoonish visual but a little fairly and simple gun and run. The low price and co-op with other three players makes Gun, Gore & Cannoli a worth try.
Old fashion shooter with good looks, good vibes and good controls.
The gameplay is formulaic and the execution is pleasant.
That's how you make traditional sweets.
Guns, Gore & Cannoli involves all three of those things- and a lot of them. It's a run-and-gun game about a zombie outbreak in the prohibition era.
It's 1925. Mafia hitman Vinnie Cannoli has come to Thugtown for a job: find Frankie the Fly and bring him to Mr Bellucio. The only problem is, as soon as the ship he booked passage on makes harbor, he finds himself knee deep in a plague of the undead! Good thing he's got his trusty .45 on hand.
The game is fairly simple to play, even by run-and-gun standards. There's no mouse controls at all: You shoot in the direction you're facing, and the only way to adjust your aim is to duck or jump. Thankfully, you have a wide variety of weapons as well as a large stack of grenades and molotovs, which always seem to land precisely where you need them to. Handy, that. You also have a kick, which is useful for when you're getting swarmed by zombies. Most engagements can be approached strategically and without taking uneccessary damage, putting this game a cut above say, Mercenary Kings. Checkpoints are mercifully frequent as are health items, in the form of boxes of fresh cannoli.
The campaign length is on the short side, at least on normal, but there is the option for up to four-player local coop. In addition, the game has excellent asthetics- hand-drawn graphics, extremely fluid animations and music to suit the setting. It's also extremely gory, if you couldn't tell from the name, enough that some might find it off-putting.
If you can stomach it though, this is an excellent run-and-gun platformer and well worth the small asking price.
Good artistic section, wide arsenal of weapons, but it can be boring and repetitive when you play it alone. The game wins a lot of fun when you play it with friends locally.
+ + + Pros + + +
1. Great cartoon graphics and art style.
2. Local co-op for up to 4 players.
3. Smooth arcade gameplay.
- - - Cons - - -
1. The campaign could be longer (12 levels)
2. The controls are keyboard or controller only (no mouse aiming,no shooting up or diagonally either).
3. The scrolling is really bad (if you are retreating,it moves quickly back,so you cant see enemies).
Good and funny arcade shooter. If you like Metal Slug or Shoot Many Robots,this game is for you.
SummaryGuns, Gore & Cannoli is a Tarantino-esque homage to the exploitation/grindhouse films from the 70ies, the gangster classics, and the old school 2D arcade shooters.
