About Gun Mayhem
Staying on your feet is the whole game in Gun Mayhem. Instead of whittling down health bars, your shots shove opponents backward, so a well-aimed burst can send a rival flying off the edge of the island and out of the fight. It's a simple premise that creates genuine chaos, with players leaping between platforms, trading fire and scrambling to stay away from the drop.
Choosing your weapon matters, because the right gun can make knocking enemies around much easier, and crates that turn up during a round can hand you a firearm upgrade. That loot adds a gamble to every fight: do you dash for the crate or hold your ground? Battles against friends are where it gets loudest, but computer opponents make good practice. Short rounds and quick restarts make it very easy to play just one more match.
How to play Gun Mayhem
- Pick your weapon carefully before the fight begins.
- Run, jump between platforms and shoot to push opponents backward.
- Grab crates during the round to get firearm upgrades.
- Knock every opponent off the island while staying on it yourself to win.

Tips and tricks
- Fight from the middle of the island and let opponents come to you, since being near an edge makes you easy to knock off.
- Check where the platforms are before jumping for a crate; a greedy grab over open air can end your round.
- Crates can swing a fight, so watch where they appear and contest them when it's safe.
- Try different weapons to find the one that pushes enemies hardest at the range you like to fight from.
