Squirrel with a Gun

You play as a squirrel who escapes a secret underground facility and takes on the agents pursuing it. The adventure unfolds across a neighborhood where you can explore, cause cartoonish mayhem, and uncover tasks and secrets.

Combat uses an assortment of firearms against agents, but guns also help you move: firing in midair lets recoil launch the squirrel toward high or distant platforms. You can also climb, throw objects, and take on platforming and puzzle challenges.

Collect regular and golden acorns as you explore. They help unlock weapons, equipment, outfits, vehicles, and new areas, while challenges and boss encounters add further objectives. Some vehicles, including remote-controlled ones, offer additional ways to get around.

Players who enjoy the game often point to its absurd armed-squirrel premise, physical comedy, and freedom to experiment in the neighborhood. Reviews also praise using weapon recoil for movement, exploring for acorns and secrets, and the music, especially during boss encounters. Others find the controls and platforming imprecise, and some say the activities become repetitive or feel limited; bugs and unclear objectives also come up in individual reviews.
