Barunba is a shoot 'em up video game released in 1990 by Namco for the NEC PC Engine console and the MSX2 computer line.

It received positive reviews from European gaming magazines at the time, with Aktueller Software Markt and Joystick noting its similarity to Mr. Heli and praising its gameplay and graphics.

This is the Japanese release, so its text is in Japanese.
