WinFight
Description
This is for all the would-be gunslingers who'd rather be playing Law of the West than doing a mail merge. Run the program, select "timed fight", and then go about your business... periodically, a little black-hat cowboy will unexpectedly appear somewhere random on your desktop, intone "Draw!", and reach for his six-shooter. Can you find him and click on him before he plugs you? If not, perhaps you'd better stick to the mail merge, though you can hone your skills using the "Fight now!" mode to take away the unpredictable timing element.

Freeware has never been more fun !
The Good
Gameplay-
You open up the application, press F2 and boom ! You're dead. You use the mouse pointer to shoot the cowboy. It's neat because the cowboy dosen't appear in the same place twice. You basically play until you win in the timed round. I can't remember, but it might go on forever in normal mode. Or it could end when you run out of lives. Over all, pretty good.
Graphics-
Pretty decent. cowboys show up all over the screen, but the menu is in the little box the program opens with. The cowboys are drawn and animated well. Another cool thing is when you miss, a little bullet hole shows up on screen. Very nice. And to erase the dead outlaws, you can drag the box over them to clear your view. It really helps when you get going.
Sound-
There are four sounds. Your gun, the bad guy's gun, the outlaw being shot and the "Draw" sound. It sound clear enough. They are WAV files after all. Amusing is about the best way I can describe it. Not bad.
Tech specs-
171 KB ? Cool ! I can fit this and the ZIP file it came in on a floppy disk ! It'll run on modern Windows, so no worry there.
The Bad
Gameplay-
For me at least, when I press F2, it hits the previous icons I clicked on. I had to keep clicking on the window to get it going.
The Bottom Line
A fun distraction. A game for everyone. Um...FREE ! What other reasons do you need ?
