Reverend Ray is a violent and merciless killer. His quarry is the lone fugitive, Billy Candle, a savage accused of murder. With Bible in one hand and revolver in the other, the Reverend is unwavering in his hunt for brutal justice. Only wit and guile will keep young Billy ahead of the chase.
Intense, gritty and unforgiving, Call of Juarez paves a trail through bloodshed, leaving death and smoking guns in its wake.
There was a time when the Wild West was just dangerous. Now it's downright deadly.

Play as Reverend Ray and Billy Candle, each with unique skills, abilities, weapons and contrasting styles.
Well, I have to say, I enjoyed it. Finally managed to finish it yesterday.
I did remember a bit about the story and setting, since I played this game almost a decade ago, but for whatever reason I didn't got to the end.
Yes, there are some frustrating parts (like the climbing tp the mountain, where you need to find some eagle's feather), but mostly the gameplay is fun.
The gameplay is fine, eventually you will get used to the whip. First it seems very akward. But than somehow you master is. Afterall, Billy Candle is slowly becoming a man ;)
The graphics are still very nice, especially on modern computers, where it works flawlessly on full HD, widescreen, at least 60 Hz and DX10 mode.
Worth at least one playtrough.
I didnt enjoy it at all. Its very clunky and there are sections where you have to swing with a whip and I tend to die multiple times before getting past it. The very first level where you have to run from the town took me at least 10 attempts before I got past the swinging part.
This game is circa 2006 .. and it definately feels it.
The biggest problem with this game is poor design. The designers intend you to play a level or chapter a certain way - and any deviation results in failure. Probably the most disastisfying was right out of the gate - the designers intended you to run out of town. You have no resources (guns, bullets ..etc) So what happens? As soon as you take 5 steps - 3 gunslingers are ported behind you and start shooting 'Very Accurately'. You're running in a straight line (up hill). There's no cover. I died 10 times trying to stealth and another 30 times just trying to run away serpentine like.
Save yourself some grief. Buy the game on sale. Play on Normal or Easy and spam F5 (quicksave).
After playing Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, I decided to go back to this original 2006 release, and it was a rewarding experience. The game offers a well-told Wild West story. The dual perspectives give the story depth, and the setting—dusty towns and wide-open deserts—is nicely captured.
However, the gameplay can feel a bit clunky at times. There were moments where I got stuck or struggled with awkward controls, and the enemy's movement is often predictable. While the gunfights are satisfying, especially with dual pistols, some encounters did feel repetitive.
Despite these flaws, the story and atmosphere shine through. For fans of the Western genre, the game delivers a solid, immersive experience. While it might not stand up to modern standards, Call of Juarez remains a memorable FPS, offering an enjoyable ride for anyone who loves a good Western tale.
