The verdict
A very cheap, janky indie horror with a great western soundtrack but slow one-shot combat, loud cheap jumpscares and blurry filters. Skip it if you want real horror or polish.
Great for
Players who enjoy ironic bad-game fun, western-style music and a very short, very cheap horror romp
Main risk
Slow-reload combat, no checkpoints and loud cheap jumpscares make it frustrating rather than scary
