The game that we present to you is perfect for lovers of cowboy stories. Actually, it's perfect for anyone who wants to have a fun time shooting in a non-immersive 3D environment.
And the fact is that Westy West takes us back to the first games in 3D, with an action that takes place on a diagonal map, reproducing different scenes of the American West. The graphics are simple, formed from cubes in the purest Lego style.
That yes, they spare no detail when it comes to faithfully representing all the elements that characterize the 'western' environment. Westy West is available for both iOS and Android.
Plot
At Westy West we are a bounty hunter who will try to add as many bandits as possible to our resume. It will also affect our portfolio, since ending each one of them will mean earning more money. With that money we can improve our weapons, hire miners to extract gold for us and buy us a horse.
As we progress through the phases, we will have different scenarios, full desert or trips to western cities. It is important to know the difference between innocent citizens and bandits, as killing the former can attract the police.
Banks are a special issue: certain safes will be opened over time. If we sneak in las we can empty and keep the moneyBe careful, because if we attract attention the police will come and we will become bandits.
Gameplay
In Westy West we have some fairly simple controls. Although they may seem a bit robotic at first (we "jump" from square to square), after a while they get the hang of it.
Essentially we have two movements: swipe to move in any of the four directions and press to shoot. The bullets are unlimited, so we took that problem out of our heads.
We can shoot people, cacti, animals, with different results. In addition to destroying, our shots will notify people around us of our presence, so we have to be careful not to do it for free.
Missions
Every time we stand in front of a Wanted sign, we will acquire the mission to catch that bandit, and collect the reward. Besides, each phase has specific missions that give us money They are simple missions, like destroying 3 cacti or getting 10 dollars. Taking this type of mission into account will be good for our pocket.
In-app purchases
Westy West is free to play, but includes in-app purchases It is the most common and profitable format nowadays. In the case of this game, the possibilities to improve from purchases appear almost from the beginning. For example, we can choose between almost 15 characters, although the original character is the only free one.
As in this type of game, avoiding purchases will slow down your progress in the gameIn practice, the only way to get large amounts of money is by robbing safes. But those boxes take minutes and even hours to open, so we have to wait, because if we pass the level, we can't go back.
Purchases do not usually reach the euro, and allow us to access different improvements. For example, get hold of a horse, with which we will advance faster in the desert phases. We can also improve our equipment, choosing between pistols, shotguns and even hammers.
Overall, Westy West is a complete and fun game, although it is true that playing the free version can be a bit slow. On the other hand, if you don't want to complicate your life either and just want to duel bandits for a while a day, this game is a perfect option for you.
