Title: Cowboys

Description: We are pretty sure that when you hear the word cowboy, first thing that comes into your mind are the western movies in which usually appears lone and nameless cowboy, an unsung hero willing to do whatever it takes with a unselfish motive, good to triumph over evil. Other common western themes that appear in those movies center around settlers' struggles against the native Indian population, land controversies, the hunt for gold and hunting down outlaws… and the heroic cowboy is always somehow involved in all of these problems, trying to solve them. Since the first movies of this kind that appeared in 1903, the cowboy theme became so popular around the turn of the last century that it resulted with a birth to a genre of story-telling known as the western genre. John Wayne and Clint Eastwood were the most well-known stars of this period, but it seems like there wasn’t much akin to this in the real West. The infamous truth is that a cowboy was an animal herder who tended cattle on ranches in North America, traditionally on horseback, and often performs a multitude of other ranch-related tasks, what seems quite logic, if we consider the term…but not so heroic!

Game Walkthrough: Have the courage to take this really interesting challenge, there in the wild west. You may predict what can you expect from there – a lot of duels and a lot of shooting, and that’s also what this game is about. The thing is that you are quite rebel and there is no place for that in a place where the sheriff has the main word, but there are many cowboy groups that like to rule over him. And you are in the middle of this kind of a situation in that area. You’ve been hunted, so at the moment you are surrounded by many cowboys and it’s quite sure that there is no chance to escape this situation. Your only choice is to face the risk and start shooting all those cowboys, trying to keep your head safe at the same time. Seems like those cowboys are quite strong since you need to shoot more than one time to manage to kill them. While playing, you can track your health, according to the red filling in the hat. As you see it becomes empty when some of the cowboys hits you, so do your best to stay alive for a longer period of time, passing many levels and earning a lot of points. Similar goes for the opponents too, they are dead when the bar over their head becomes empty.

Game Instructions: So you thought that you were good at shooting? Well this is your chance to prove that to us. Check out the rules for a minute and you may start. A real cowboy has a gun, but leave that for the prairie, this is a trial so you’ll be using your mouse for shooting. You move your mouse for aiming and use the left mouse button to shoot. When you need to reload your weapon, press the space bar and whenever there is a need to duck, use the down arrow key. That’s how the things go, so you may start shooting!
