Great Guns

Great Guns challenges players to test their marksmanship in this engaging shooter from Stern Electronics, released in 1983. Using a lightgun controller, two players compete across nine distinct target scenes, each presenting its own unique arrangement of objects to shoot down. The game’s graphics are sharply defined and offer an attractive visual experience as you aim and fire. The gameplay revolves around achieving high scores by accurately hitting targets within each scene. Successfully demonstrating skill can even trigger a “Skill Return” feature that may return a player's initial investment, with the threshold adjustable by operators. Players will find that collaborating is advantageous; playing with a second person awards both players bonus ammunition to help take down those tricky targets. With its dual-processor Zilog Z80 system and General Instrument sound chips, Great Guns provides a solid arcade experience for shooter fans seeking a competitive challenge.
