Good maps, very fun scenarios that vary mechanics enough to keep interest through each one. Choose each stories difficulty, which was nice. A great selection of crazy old west guns. The playing cards allow pretty much customized characters, or allow you to beef up weaker ones, or just make a power house. Each story feels crafted with care and for the most part held interest. Some levels felt like a real challenge even on normal, but were satisfying to beat once the dust settled. My only beef with this game was a lack of a good save feature, the game saves on exit basically, which has its draw backs but prevents cheesy game play. Overall I really liked it even though it was a little different than I expected for a tactical turn based. Cheers! (I have Hard West 2 which I will be playing sometime soon hopefully)

Buy on discount/ 10 There is a lot to love about the idea of the game, but its cut pretty short and the combat feels like replaying the same equation rather than adapting. Good start, just needs a bit more to be a great game

It is a really fun game with good turn-based tactical combat. I mostly enjoy the narrative though, and some twists and turns that I did not expect. The ability to adjust the challenge to what you'd like is also appreciated. Some mechanics are not well explained, but the curious can google those.

artstyle is awesome, its a good strategy game with xcom syle topdown and gameplay. The combat is fun with the luck system, the cards, richoet. The ONLY problem i have with it is when enemies bug out randomly (sit on a tile and tweak out) and won't end their turn. It's really annoying and kind of ruins the whole game for me. Fights which shouldn't take that long take forever because I have to constantly reload the save and they STILL bug out. I might update my review if this changes But please fix the models tweaking out mid combat. I repeat NOT a bad game just a really awful bug that plagues the gameplay. (the true evil west) Edit: If you turn on V-sync it fixes the problem DO THIS IF NPCS/CHARACTERS STUTTER
