    The game offers a very cool and interessting story. Gameplay like Guns, enemys and the posible ways u kill your enemys are Infinity. An Indie RGP on a weird way.

Good synchronisation and music, truely a game for WildWest-Fans. I can only recommend it. The game lost a point cause enemys are (like in the most games) super dumb and intelligent at the same time. That means, they spot (or dont) you when they shpuld not (should). And we all know, as soon a enemy sees you, everybody in the area knows instandly who you are and where.
    Also running behind a wall, which could be anyone, will alert all enemys in the area. The game is sometimes crashing, but not to bad.

    Excellent jeu une direction artistique envoûtante on aime se perdre dans ce monde absolument dingue avec ces créatures bizarres. Bravo aux développeurs (les anciens d'arkane) qui ont dû galèrer à faire coexister tout les systèmes présents dans ce jeu. Une très bonne surprise que ce weird west.

    Warning: it takes some time to make plot interesting but it's worth it! - Really good and interesting plot.
    - Good stealth mechanics
    - A lot of variety in ways to accomplish goals
    - Huge Immersive world
    One of the best games I played this year. I can definitely recommend.

    The camera and aiming controls take some getting used to and truthfully never feel quite as fluid and intuitive as you'd like, but everything else about this game is stunning. The worldbuilding and atmosphere in particular are absolutely stellar thanks in no small part to the amazing soundtrack and writing.

    I love everything about this game - the visual style, the story, the lore, the music is amazing, the dark atmosphere that haunts the player until the very end, but also the very good humor. It was hard to shoot, sometimes there were non-critical bugs. I want books on this universe. And, of course, more games.

    The game gave the same feeling as it did when immersed in Fallout 1-2.

    Very nice dark climate from beginning to the end. Whole story and mechanics are very good. Only in mid-game combat became very easy. Good and unfortunately underrated game.

    Engaging combat is matched with stellar writing, great music, and most importantly it’s just damned fun.

    The work that has gone into the Weird West world and the characters that frequent it is impressive. Yes the grind is real, but it is a rewarding experience when it all comes together.

    We are facing a title as rare as fun, which combines elements of multiple genres to create something new that won’t leave anyone indifferent. Expectations were high and it has far exceeded them.
