In "Orange Roulette," play as a frightened orange dodging the lethal shots of a Banana Gun, which randomly fires seed-pods at high velocity when fully ripe. Banana Guns, found on trees, are carefully selected by apples for their sinister game, making this both a thrilling and unique survival experience. The game's outcome: either you remain juice-free or become a component in orange juice production.
