SHAMEFULLY SMALL
TEXT - FONTS - WRITING And I know what you were thinking... Don't be rude. If you don't want to go blind trying to read this game's Text - Steer well clear...a tragic case of what's the point of playing a good game that's ruined by School boy developers errors...IF YOU CAN'T READ IT - YOU DON'T NEED IT AND I WON'T BE BUYING HARD WEST 2.

Pleasant story-telling strategy game
After long time, finally some game which entertained me enough to play it as a whole. Nice turn-based strategy with darker tones from wild wild west..

My new favorite game
I love the genre of Western, and I loved the original X-COM back when it was a new game. Hard West creates a great Western atmosphere, with gunfighters, gold rushes, bounty hunters, and some mystic elements that I find enjoyable. The music adds to the atmosphere; so does the voiceover. Combat system is more similar to the new X-COM than the original one, with its use of covers; and it's just as deadly as the first X-COM missions. Life is harsh out there. If you let the enemy spot you, you're as good as dead. The creaters added a "Luck" system which is rather cool; it lets you literally dodge the bullets, but the more it happens, the faster your luck runs out. Also there are the cards that add special abilities to your characters, making unique combinations. Definitely worth a try.

Really nice story, unpolished game
The story and various game mechanics are really nice. The vibe, the atmosphere, everything here screams Deadlands. It is very interesting to see slightly different mechanics in each scenario – it keeps the game fresh throughout until the end. However, there are two significant downsides: 1) Lack of player overwatch makes the combat far less tactical than it's advertised (and than it could be). 2) The card mechanics force you to use weaker cards, to obtain a specific weaker hand. It would be better to be able to choose, which bonus to use (like, I want to use Pair instead of Three of a Kind often). Other than that: a decent game worth your buck. I spent 20 hours in it (including the expansion), and I enjoyed it for the most part.

Refreshing - could be improved
I was wary about the lack of overwatch feature (and, no, the IA does not get it, more like a defensive overwatch if you get in contact with them), turns out it makes the gameplay quite different than X-Com and clones so it is actually a good thing. I was as well weary about the whole supernatural angle of the story but it is well done, consistent. And some game mechanics is different depending on the scenario. So, even though the game contains a few noticeables bugs (half of the UI disappearing, etc) it is enjoyable.
