    An arcade game with hot and violent gameplay, perfect music and a beautiful setting that makes you feel like you're really in the wild west. The physics of the game are also great and almost everything in the scenario is destructive. This is without a doubt the best CALL OF JUAREZ

    Не понимаю как у этой игры может быть такая высокая оценка на метакритике. Если е смотреть сквозь призму ностальгии, это очень посредственная игра, с однотипными локами и дохуищями врагов. Камон, один челикс перестреливает банды головорезов, перестреливает лучших стрелков на всем Западе?)?)?) какой-то симулятор Клина Иствуда и Рэмбо в одном лице)

    A very mediocre shooter that time seems to have forgotten. The repeated reuse of assets, very bland and uninteresting locations and levels, and the disjointed story make this a bit of a relic, but if you're into cowboy shooters, this has plenty of blood and fun campy aspects to satisfy.

    Крайне приятный шутер. Играется очень бодро, проходится за один вечер и не надоедает.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Единственная пройденная мной часть серии Call of Juarez. Тем не менее, по-моему мнению, лучший шутер в сеттинге Дикого Запада. Основная сюжетная канва очень хороша. Рассказ охотника за головами, уже отошедшего от дел, в который мало кто из слушателей верит, тем более что рассказчик где-то явно привирает. Но то, что самая важная часть оказывается правдой, повергает всех в шок, и после прохождения ты сам не вполне веришь, что герой отпустил обидчика. Геймплей - главное достоинство игры. Оружие не блещет разнообразием, однако хорошо проработано и совершать убийства, а тем более серии убийств, приятно. Классический револьвер никогда не подводит стрелка, ставя хэдшоты. И вишенкой на этом торте являются дуэли, почувствовать себя тем самым ковбоем, жизнь которого зависит от долей секунд, быстрой реакции и скорости нажатия кнопок, да еще много раз за всю игру - бесценно. Графика приятна, взрывы смотрятся интересно и к месту. В целом, вся игра проходится быстро, но запоминается надолго и к ней хочется вернуться.… Expand

    pretty straight simple game, it is not shooter it's just shooting range and you standing still and shooting enemy without any chance to die

    Отличный вестерн шутер с просто потрясающим повествованием и динамичным геймплеем,также отдельного упоминания заслуживает атмосфера.
    Также: проработанная аркадная стрельба которая приносит много удовольствия, графика которая еще больше придает атмосферу игре, также есть аркадные дуэли.    Отличный вестерн шутер с просто потрясающим повествованием и динамичным геймплеем,также отдельного упоминания заслуживает атмосфера.

    This game looks more like something that could be mobile phone game, but story is interesting, gameplay is really fun although a bit repetitive and for me, even in 2023 I like to play it from time to time.

    The game is really charming, the story is cohesive but doesn`t take itself too seriously, and it has some genuine really funny moments and some third wall breaking moments, which maybe isnt for everyone, but I did find it really amusing.

    Gameplay wise, super fun, has all the basics of an FPS, has a leveling system, which is also super basic, but its fundamentals are so well done that its just a breeze to play through, most people can play it in one sitting.

    Even though I found the game unfair at times, and the duels sometimes can be annoying and time consuming (if you are not good at them like me), it doesnt hinder my experience that much.

    Its definitely an experience worth playing through at least one time.    … Expand

    Although it seems like a good game to distribute bullets, it has a game structure that continues with a strange integrity. Even if it goes well, you will throw the game into a corner as soon as it starts to repeat itself. It's a clichéd revenge story, with some poorly executed parts. It's just a "basic" game. Not very bad but not very well. It could be better. -5

    Good (but a little short) story and lovely story telling. Clear mechanics, easy to control. Weapons are not very versatile. Arcade mode and duel challenge are fun too. Watch the "Call of Juarez Gunslinger Launch Trailer", it's the most honest and descriptive trailer I've ever seen.

    Short and peppy shooter for a couple of evenings. Very cool style and good storytelling. The graph for the game 9 years ago looks quite nice. You should not expect much from this game, but it is quite possible to run through it.

    We need more games like Gunslinger. It's great fun, the shooting mechanics are amazing, the arcade feel of the game is super fun and the game doesn't take 200 hours to complete. It's very short actually, but it has the perfect length for the style of game it's going for. This game is definitely an unexpected gem that goes back to the roots of really fun single-player arcade shooters.

    8/10. The shooting has an inconsistent sensitivity between zoomed and unzoomed fire. The visibility is poor and a there are a bunch of situations that make on slam their desk in frustration. The boss fights feel like that a lot. Overall the game was enjoyable because it was simple shooting and even at hard difficulties there was outplay potential most of the time.

    This is an FPS game set in the wild west. The voice acting is superb and the environment design is not so bad. The best thing about this game is the interesting storytelling with comic like sketches. The combat is average.

    Great game! The skill trees are nice, each with their own unique and fun abilities. I especially loved the gameplay. It's extremely fun. You can choose between these weapons: the rifle, sixshooter, quickshooter, ranger, shotgun and sawed off shotgun. Best part? With the akimbo skill, you can dual wield revolvers and sawed off shotguns! And I have to mention the legendary weapons. You canGreat game! The skill trees are nice, each with their own unique and fun abilities. I especially loved the gameplay. It's extremely fun. You can choose between these weapons: the rifle, sixshooter, quickshooter, ranger, shotgun and sawed off shotgun. Best part? With the akimbo skill, you can dual wield revolvers and sawed off shotguns! And I have to mention the legendary weapons. You can gain legendary weapons in the skill tree and they replace the normal ones. They're great. They're powerful, but of course, they don't make the game too easy. There always are a lot of enemies and you die in a few hits. You can choose between normal, hard and True West difficulties. True West is brutal. You unlock it by beating the game once. Also, after you beat the game you can play again with all your abilities unlocked. You don't just shoot enemies though. You can throw dynamite, blow up dynamite in the air, melee kill enemies. You also have a concentration meter, which you can use at anytime to slow down time. You also have your sense of death, which you can use to dodge a deadly bullet once every few seconds. All of this makes a very fun and exciting combat. The bosses are great, too. The story isn't great, but it's enough. It's not bad, but it isn't good either. It's fine. The levels are fun and the graphics are pretty good as well. I really loved the art style. When you meet new bosses, they're drawn in a very beautiful and cool style. Now, the duels. The duels were infuriating for me at first. The game limits your movement. You can't move, but you can dodge. I didn't know you could dodge bullets so I absolutely hated the duels. After I beat the game for the first time I realized you could dodge. So now the duels aren't that bad, but I still don't like them. You have to hover over the enemy with the crosshair or whatever it's called to focus on the enemy. It doesn't sound too bad, but the crosshair is constantly moving and if it moves off the enemy, you lose focus. After around 30 seconds, the enemy draws their weapon and you can shoot him. You can draw your weapon before he draws his, but if you do that you're dishonored and you lose XP you could gain. Anyways, this is a great game. The combat is fun and exciting, the story is good enough and the art style and graphics are good. The duels are the only bad parts in my opinion. Great game!… Expand

    The Call of Juarez series has had its ups and downs over the years, but Gunslinger stands proud—not only against its own checkered past, but against the FPS genre as a whole. It may not be a subtle or particularly nuanced experience, but it's certainly a cracking good time delivered with a style and confidence that's rarely seen in a full-priced title, let alone a $15 download.

    Call of Juarez returns to western genre, and that is fine. A pity though, it imitates itself, even its competition. However, this story is worth it even without a happy-ending. [Issue#231]
