I see a lot of praise for this game, and to be honest I can see why. Hell, I enjoy the "rhythm" aspects a lot, the soundtrack is absolutely amazing and the tileset is decent and cute, however, it fails at being a Roguelike.

Sure the dungeons, loot and encounters are randomly generated but that's the end of it. Don't be fooled by the roguelike-esque appearance, this is at heart a "rythm" game, with little to no emphasis on micro-management and rich possibilities during your run. Sure there are a lot of objects unlockable, but most, if not all of them don't change between the runs making their effects and efficiency predictable. Runes, magic items and spells are easily remembered. The combat mechanics are solely based on pattern memorization, which makes a lot of sense given the rhythm aspect of the game, but that gets old fast. All that is especially sad because there is a real sense of urgency created by the music and the need to do every action quickly but in a timely fashion, an element often missing in traditional Roguelikes.

One of the redeemable aspect for Roguelike fanatics is the Hardcore mode which pits you against a dungeon without the interference of the unlockables, thus making the whole thing a lot harder, a bit closer to a real Roguelike experience.

Bottom line I don't recommend it for Roguelike fans and that is my perspective on the game. For everyone else it's an enjoyable experience for a little while. If you manage to get past the fact that the game takes big liberties with the genre, basically doing away with most if not all its interesting aspects, it's a nice little game that won't get your attention for long but with a great soundtrack that clearly makes the experience worthwhile.

A nice multyplayer competitive FPS set in the old-west, very reminiscent of old titles like Outlaws by Lucasarts, along with some inspiration from realistic shooters like Red Orchestra. Despite the somewhat steep learning curve (mainly caused by the realistic behavior of all the weapons), this is game has a lot of charm, solid gameplay and a whole lot of whiskey. More importantly (and quite surprisingly in this day and age), this game is completely free, there are no micro-transactions, no in-game store, just tons of fun !

Old-west FPS are rare, and this one is a very good one. Play it and you won't be disappointed.
