The verdict
A charming, story-driven western shooter with a memorable preacher hero, but very janky and crash-prone today. Skip it if you hate clunky controls, bugged duels and platforming.
Great for
Western fans who can tolerate 2000s jank and want a strong story with a gunslinging preacher
Main risk
Crashes and bugged duels can stop you finishing, plus frustrating Billy platforming
