Overview
Description

Set in the American frontier, Call of Juarez puts players in the boots of a bounty hunter and a former outlaw as they chase a notorious gang. The game mixes first‑person shooting with stealth mechanics, offering both intense duels and tactical sneaking through dusty towns and canyons. The title features a dual‑character narrative, split‑screen multiplayer, and a period‑accurate atmosphere that immerses players in the lawless Wild West, delivering a classic shooter experience on PC and Xbox 360.

Westward is a strategy game set in the Old West where players guide a cast of characters through frontier towns. Starting at Camp Chippewa, you learn the basics before expanding your settlements and confronting threats. Manage resources, hire gunslingers or sheriffs, and deal with bandits, plagues, and natural disasters while enjoying witty western puns. The game supports single‑player, multiplayer, and co‑operative modes for kids and families.
