    When it comes down to it Westerado: Double-Barreled is a unique game. Its pixelated art style separates it from the crowd with great effect. The writing and sense of humour is executed well, as well as the overall story and motivations. It’s a simple but effective game that gives the player what they want – to be a badass cowboy.

    The game's early era mechanics will be a joy to nostalgically-driven gamers while also making enough concessions to contemporary players that remove most (but not all) frustrations. If you don't mind the pixelized art and a few gripes that come with it, it's well worth it to saddle up for Westerado.

    Westerado: Double Barreled is something that can be played and beat in an hour or enjoyed for much longer stretches, just depending on your mood. There are many hidden elements such as hidden areas, secret rituals, multiple endings and secret quests. It's such a simple game but with so much to enjoy. If you're looking for something different, a change of pace, then this is the game for you.

    Despite its simplicity, Westerado brings us an interesting adventure where we’ll find countless bandits, rustlers or Indians, and where we’ll save damsels in distress. Pure pixel-western.

    Frustrating shooting is compensated by a sense of freedom and witty writing. [March 2017, p.88]

    L'indé qui dégobille les pixels de partout en 4 couleurs, on appelle ça "de lard" dans les milieux bobos autorisés, du "pixel lard". AlorsL'indé qui dégobille les pixels de partout en 4 couleurs, on appelle ça "de lard" dans les milieux bobos autorisés, du "pixel lard". Alors lard ou la manière, Westeradaube a clairement choisi son camp et celui-ci est dans la fosse à purin et sans la manière.

    Tout en anglais, cette chose d'une débilité sans nom réclame de l'argent, c'est-à-dire qu'elle est vendue alors que même en étant payé très cher pour y jouer, on n'en voudrait pas. Pas pour tout l'or du monde. Même l'Atari 2600 n'en a pas voulu -à son époque- car il faut dire que le foutage de gueule a ses limites mais on vit justement dans cette drôle d'époque où quelques stagiaires bourrés peuvent démouler leur terrine numérique sur presque toutes les plate-formes.

    Sauf chez Nintendaube qui les produit lui-même : le petit artisan n'a en effet que faire de ce genre de sous-produits pour s'encombrer davantage avec une bouse niaise et imbécile.    … Expand
