Buy West of Dead For $.87
This game is just fun…. full stop.
It’s a horror game for sure, the only different is that in this game you’re the horror. Set in the small wild west town of Purgatory, Wyoming in 1888 as you dart for cover, pin down your adversaries, and make strategic moves throughout the dark angles of the game’s procedurally generated hunting grounds.
Even if you don’t play through the game in its entirety, even a couple hours in this game’s world is enough to get your money’s worth.
