Hard West goes for a noir aspect and this suits the title quite well. It’s really interesting to come up with something new for a change, and this game does an amazing job in this regard. The weapons in this game are very impressive, and at the same time the experience is nicely designed to the point that you will really love how everything works. I can see Hard West as being a Wild West X-Com, with a lot of tactical depth and plenty of interesting opportunities that any player can check out whenever he wants. We have seen a number of titles like Hard West for a very long time but let’s face it, none of them have been in a Western setting.
I also have to note that the setting of this game is very interesting. The cover system integrates seamlessly with the shadow spotting mechanic that will immediately show you when you are detected by the enemies. They also integrated a very good cover system which I appreciated quite a lot, as it does manage to bring up tons of unique opportunities and it makes the entire gameplay a lot more refined. On top of that, I found the combat system to be on point, being a lot more detailed and focused on results rather than anything else. I liked the idea of exploring choices as this is what makes the game different, however the combat is compelling because it does offer a wide range of strategic approaches that you can check out as you see fit. The turn based combat experience is what makes this game unique, but at the same time the western setting does a great job when it comes to offering you a refined, extraordinary place to check out and one that is filled with history. As a character that comes back to life, you have plenty of missions that have to be completed, all of which create a very interesting, albeit a little dark storyline which is interesting for sure. Basically, all you need to do in this game is to make sure that you avenge your death by killing the persons who wronged you. Hard West is an action packed game that comes with a very simple premise.
