What are some of your favorite Old West/gunslinger games?

Assuming everyone here knows RDR 1 & 2. Not that you can’t list them, of course. 😁

I haven’t played many but I really enjoyed the two Boot Hill games. Nice Old West combined with pixel RPG gameplay.

Desperados 3 is my fave, the cast covers a bunch of the classic Western tropes and the levels are full of elaborate, old-timey setpieces.

There are the Call of Juarez games, probably the best western FPS games. I particularly liked Call of Juarez: Gunslinger.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger (as has been already mentioned) is a fun little FPS with great storytelling and even a few surprising twists! One of my favorite games of all time.

I really liked an indie game called _Westerado_.

For a classic, _Wild Arms 3_. For even older classics, _Wild Guns_ and _Sunset Riders_.

It is not out yet but soon and it has a demo for anyone interested. Basically Stardew Valley but Wild West. I hope it is a good one.
