Guts & Blackpowder

About the Game

Survival is not guaranteed. Cooperation is mandatory.

Guts & Blackpowder (G&B) is a multiplayer survival-horror game on Roblox that drops players into the mud and blood of the early 19th century. You and your regiment must survive relentless waves of the infected using period-accurate weaponry, tactics, and sheer willpower.

Permadeath

One bite is all it takes. If you fall, you join the horde. There are no respawns until the round ends—every shot counts, every decision matters.

Regiment-Based Play

Fight alongside friends as line infantry, protect your officer, or keep morale high as a musician. Lone wolves die fast in G&B.

Classes & Roles

Every soldier has a place in the line.

Line Infantry

The backbone of any regiment. Armed with muskets and bayonets, they form firing lines and hold chokepoints against the undead tide.

Officer

Leads the charge and boosts morale. Equipped with a sabre and a spyglass, the officer commands troops and organizes defenses.

Musician

Drummers and fifers who provide buffs to nearby allies. Their music can be the difference between a rout and a disciplined retreat.

Surgeon

The only hope for the wounded. Surgeons can revive incapacitated players—if they can reach them before the horde does.

Sapper

Engineers who construct barricades, spikes, and cover. A good sapper turns a hopeless position into a fortress.

Cavalry

Fast-moving shock troops. They can break through zombie hordes with sabre charges, but are vulnerable when dismounted.

Core Mechanics

Muskets, mud, and monstrosities.

Blackpowder Combat

Firearms are slow, inaccurate, and deadly. Players must stand still to fire effectively, coordinate volleys, and switch to bayonets when the enemy closes the distance. Reloading under pressure is a skill in itself.

Barricades & Fortifications

Sappers can place wooden barricades and spike traps. These delay the infected but can be broken—forcing players to adapt and fallback to secondary positions.

Infection System

A single scratch or bite from an infected player or NPC can doom a soldier. Infected players turn against their former comrades, creating paranoia and forcing teams to watch each other closely.

Morale & Voicelines

Staying near officers and musicians maintains morale, reducing sway and reload penalties. The game features immersive commands, cheers, and screams that add to the chaos.

Notable Maps

Battlefields soaked in history... and blood.

Leipzig

Urban warfare in the city streets. Expect close-quarters fighting and desperate last stands in the churchyard.

San Sebastián

A coastal fortress under siege. Wide open beaches and tight interiors require adaptive tactics.

Berezina

Freezing forests and narrow crossings. The cold is the least of your worries here.

Hougoumont

Defend the famed farmhouse from waves of undead. A classic siege experience.

Tyrolean Pass

Mountainous terrain with treacherous cliffs. Hold the pass or be overrun.

Quatre Bras

A crossroads in Belgium. Open fields favor line formations, but flanking is constant.
