Wild Gunman

Wild Gunman isn't the sort of game that breeds addiction or arguments. It is a simple game, enjoyable most from a historical perspective. This was one of the first games developed for the Nintendo NES and it holds little value other than for collectors.

Wild Gunman is a good break after you’ve just beaten a long game. You are going to have fun for a few minutes but then you will quickly tire of the repetitive style of play. The game never ends and isn’t very hard so you may find yourself just turning the game off before you have even been killed by an outlaw.

Wild Gunman's controls are very forgiving and highly responsive. Your reaction time is actually displayed on the screen after a successful shot, and it's interesting to see how fast your reflexes are, with times as low as .27. A successful shot results in a comical animation, like a hat flying off or pants falling down. The first of the three variations is easy and repetitive, and I played until I was bored. The second variation adds more challenge as you face two villains side-by-side. Sometimes they both shoot, but sometimes only one will draw, so you need to pay attention. The third variation depicts the front of a saloon with various characters appearing in the windows. It sounds like fun, but like the first variation, it's too easy and drags on for too long. While not particularly challenging or addicting, the game does have a certain degree of charm and personality.

Il a lâché son arme. Pas vous. Cette fois, c'est bien son front que vous visez. Vous vous relevez, puis repoussez le devant de votre pardessus pour dévoiler votre insigne. "Belle histoire, compañero, mais c'est une histoire que je connais bien. Car, vois-tu, le wild gunman, c'est moi."

O xerife deve acabar com todos os fora-da-lei, seja em duelo com um bandido, dois ou contra uma gang refugiada no "Saloon". O xerife tem três vidas.
