Law of the West
Type: Bitmap graphics/Music/Multiple choice
Written 1985 by Alan Miller, Mini Doggett [graphics] and Ed Bogas [music].
Runs on:
Notes: The package contains one disk and a small instruction booklet
and a folding "quick start" card. The entire game is played
with a joystick.
Comments: You wander around a typical "western movie" town, meet people
and have to deal with them. You have a selection of four or
five things to say at each turn. Get it wrong and they try to
shoot you. Get it right and they might give you some
information.
Package blurb: If you've ever wanted to strap on a six-shooter, pin a tin
star to your chest and match the exploits of a Bat Masterson
or Wyatt Earp, then Law of the West is your chance.
Hardcase Gunslingers
You're going to need true grit, and then some, to play it.
Because as the Sheriff of Gold Gulch - as tough a Wild West
town as there ever was you'll have all you can do to survive
'til sundown. Standing in your way will be all manner of
hardcase gunslingers, desperadoes and dry gulchers looking to
rob the town bank, run roughshod over innocent townspeople
and plant you in Boot Hill. So, like Masterson in Dodge City
and Earp in Tombstone, you'll be forced to face one challenge
after another threatening both your authority and your life.
