About
SolGun is a 1v1 skill-based PvP duel on Solana.
Two players enter a turn-based gunslinger match, choose Shoot, Shield or Reload each round, and stake real SOL on the outcome. The winner takes the pot minus a 4% protocol fee, paid out automatically by a smart contract. There is no house edge because there is no house \u2014 every match is player versus player.

How a SolGun match works
Each round both players choose one of three actions simultaneously. Reads matter more than reflex \u2014 the duel is won by predicting the opponent\u2019s next move, not by clicking faster.
Shoot
Spends one bullet to attack the opponent. If they shielded or shot back at the same tempo, the bullet is countered.
Shield
Blocks one incoming Shoot. Cannot be stacked indefinitely — shielded rounds gain no bullets.
Reload
Adds one bullet to your stack. Leaves you exposed if the opponent reads it as a Shoot bait.
Ultimate skills
Three ultimate skills unlock at fixed rounds, identical for both players, so neither side gains a paywall advantage. Ultimates are spent once per match.
Trueshot
Round 10
A guaranteed-hit shot that pierces a single shield.
Shotback Shield
Round 30
Reflects an incoming Shoot back at the attacker for full damage.
Siphon
Round 50
Steals a bullet from the opponent’s reserve and adds it to your own.
What SolGun is not
SolGun is not the “Solgun” trading bot. The trading bot listed on CoinMarketCap and Crypto.com is an unrelated DEX/sniper project that shares the name. SolGun the game has no token of its own and does not execute trades on behalf of users.
SolGun is also not a casino. There are no slot machines, no roulette, no random-outcome wagering against a house. Every match is a direct 1v1 where outcomes are decided by player skill, not by chance.
Finally, SolGun is not the alternative-rock band of the same name. Wrong tab.
The LOBO connection
The wolf pup that greets you at the SolGun loadout screen is LOBO THE WOLF PUP, Bitcoin Rune #9, etched on April 20, 2024 at the Bitcoin halving / Runes Protocol activation. LOBO is a community-driven meme rune funded by Buoyant Capital contributors with a 1.51 BTC etch. The wolf pup is the brand identity of SolGun \u2014 mascot, default avatar, onboarding character.
Important: LOBO lives on Bitcoin, not Solana. SolGun has no in-game LOBO utility, no LOBO staking, no LOBO governance, and no XP boosts tied to holdings. The connection is brand and community, not on-chain mechanics.
