This game reminds me of the on-rail minigame in Rayman raving rabbids.
Gal*Gun is an on-rail shooter franchise that just doesn't really do anything unique in its gameplay but it's definitely not something you can say about the presentation and plot. The plot of the game is pretty straightforward, you play as a boy who got hit by a powerful love angel arrow and now every woman loves you, your goal is to find your true love before the end of the day to live the rest of your life with her.
With this plot, you are now tasked to travel the whole school while hitting women with your pheromone shots which are used as the gun system for this game. The overall gameplay is really basic as something you'd expect from an on-rail shooter, you just hit the girls like you'd hit a zombie in House of the Dead, and you hit the girl's weak spots just like you'd do in any other on-rail shooters.
The game is extremely short like most on-rail shooters but here you have some replay value as there are different endings based on choices you make during cutscenes or based on your overall love score which is done by playing minigames placed in-between missions and these honestly suck, some are easy and some can but straight up broken, they ruin the pace of the game and they take ages to go through, I don't like them.
I personally only went for one ending and I don't need much else to be honest, one playthrough is good enough and I don't want to replay the same stage over and over with those stupid minigames and a bunch of stages are just variations of old ones so it feels really repetitive at time.
Should you play it? Yeah, it's silly so why not. This one is probably most people's pick for their first rodeo with gal gun since it's really cheap on steam and it seems to be the first game of the franchise because gal gun 2 exists and it's actually the third game, gal gun double peace being the sequel to gal gun which was an Xbox 360 game that received a remake recently but it's too expensive so I just picked Double peace.
