Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Martian Panic: Alien Blaster's engaging gameplay and affordable price point. Many appreciate the included alien blaster gun as a fun accessory that enhances the gaming experience. However, some users found the aiming mechanism challenging to master. Overall, the positive feedback on gameplay and value outweighs the concerns about aiming.

    Bought with the Martian Panic game. This is the only reason I bought together. This will be fun to pick on my nephews with, might just give to them.

    This is a fun little accessory for the Switch. It's not at all necessary to play the game but it doesn't hurt either

    I got this bundled with some shovelware alien light gun game for $10. The game was bad, but this gun works really well for light gun games like House of the Dead remake. That game is horrible with any other controller, but is actually playable with this.

    Was a free otem included with the Ninteno Switch game, Martian Panic. Good quality and not needed to play the game. A fun addition for immersion and my kids want me to get more devices like this so each player can have this accessory.

    Handle was kind of wide/thick and a little uncomfortable to use. But did work well.

    This blaster is awesome! It uses 2 AAA batteries and it makes the blasting sounds which is pretty funny. The only issue is you can’t turn the volume down and it’s pretty loud. Feels great in the hands and I’m happy with the purchase.

    Seems to be functioning ok except that the game (Martian Panic) has severe controller calibration problems.

    Received this item as part of the Martian Panic Bundle, and it functions great. Like the retro look. The actual game itself is passable, which does not say much. Kids might enjoy it for a few hours.

    This gun accessory’s quality is better than I expected. The sound is loud and crisp and the lights travel neatly down the barrel. Would love another game besides the terrible Mars Panic to use this on.

    This gun was a real surprise. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it added another level to playing the Martian Panic game. It was so much fun, it was hard to put down. Great bundle!

    This comes free when you buy the game, game goes on sale sometimes for $10, and if you buy multiple make separate purchases or you won't receive the zapper with bundle.

    It works off your switch controller, right side i use and is quite gimmicky but works. Calibration is iffy but a recenter function is present as [Y]button. It does feel sturdy and quality and is free with purchase of game.
