Gacha games trigger a part of our brains that makes us go ham for collectibles, especially when said collectibles are cute and adorable waifus and husbandos. And when you combine these gacha aspects with awesome action elements, you get great titles like the new Girl Cafe Gun.

As you can probably glean from the title, Girl Cafe Gun is all about managing a maid cafe; but it’s also about guns, as in bullet hell gameplay across numerous stages. In this sense, while you’ll be spending a lot of time working on your cafe, you’ll also be sending out your different characters to fight a variety of enemies. And as with many bullet hells, the combat is fast, hectic, and extremely challenging, though you can offset some of this difficulty by recruiting powerful characters, upgrading them, and equipping them with the best gear available.

As a “bullet hell” game, the fights in Girl Cafe Gun take place in an isometric perspective, with hordes of enemies often pouring in from all sides to try and take down our characters. To stay alive, you’ll need to quickly and skillfully bob and weave through the hail of incoming projectiles, while also returning fire to your enemies. This combat style can take a bit of getting used to, especially when it comes to the controls, particularly because you’ll need lots of precision to avoid attacks and stay safe.

Aside from its awesome combat system, Girl Cafe Gun features a strong focus on building relationships with your characters as you furnish your maid cafe. You can chat with them, spend time with them, and build affinity, which in turn unlocks different conversation options and topics. And to top it all off, these characters are presented in beautiful detail thanks to the Live2D graphics style.

However, whether you’re playing for the waifus or the thrilling combat, the truth of the matter is that you lose a lot of quality when playing Girl Cafe Gun on your phone. This is because the small phone screen doesn’t do the graphics and action justice, not to mention that the touchscreen controls leave a lot to be desired when fighting.
