Al Lowe, author of Leisure Suit Larry, abuses the Old West in computerdom's first Comedy Western: Freddy Pharkas, Frontier Pharmacist.
And you get to live that legend... the tall-but-twisted tale of a man raised as a gunslinger, who gave it all up for his first love: pharmacology!
The year is 1888; the setting, post-Gold Rush California. As Freddy Pharkas, Frontier Pharmacist, you uncover a treacherous plot to turn your once-thriving metropolis into a ghost town. With pestles and pistols, you defend your bucolic burg from one catastrophe after another: arson, stampedes, hired guns, riverboat gamblers...even terminal flatulence!
Al Lowe has stolen...er, immortalized...every Hollywood Western cliche' and character, adding his own perverse twists to produce his funniest game yet! You'll meet the pretty-but-shy Schoolmarm, the Madame with a Heart-of-Gold, the faithful Indian sidekick (Srini Lalkaka Bagdnish), and a cast of the most memorable characters ever to grace your monitor's silver screen.
So come on, buck-a-roos! Strap on your spurs, saddle up your Palomino, and:

Fun but somewhat annoying
Good memories of playing this game way back when. Still fun but I found the graphics wanting when you have to find certain items to further gameplay. Secondly, the "death" instances were a pain when you were trying to figure out what to do especially at the end. Oh well, as I said, good memories. That's a 4 rating in 1990s currency.

A Sierra classic
This is a Sierra classic I played as a kid but didn't get very far due to the copy protection. You have to create prescriptions for the citizens (obviously), but the recipes are found in the manual. Nowadays with the internet those can be found on walkthrough sites and such. There is charm galore including bad puns and self-referential humor.

I'm so excited!
I've wanted to play this game again, for a VERY long time. I never did beat it, as I was probably only 9 or 10 when I played it last...and it's been one of my life regrets. I did try to get this going on an emulator, but had issues with frame rate, and ended up getting stuck early on so I gave up on it. I WILL FINALLY BEAT FPFP, AND THEN I CAN REST IN PEACE. This game is chock full of humorous one liners, wild west satire, and straight 90's nostalgia. I haven't purchased yet, so I'm not sure how it runs...
