A Town with a Hell of a Nightlife. Somewhere in the Old West, deep in the desert and surrounded by perpetual storms, is the town of Silverload. Once a prosperous boom town, it hasn't produced silver in years. There are still a few townsfolk around, but there is something peculiar about them. Nowadays, few outsiders go there except by chance. Those that do don't stay any longer than they have to. People say that some folks have headed that way and have never been seen again. There might be something to the rumors, because some settlers have hired you to rescue one of their children. They say he was kidnapped by someone in SilverIoad. For a bounty hunter like you, this looks like easy money. It may be, but there is a mysterious Preacher in town who has a sinister plan that doesn't include you being around. The bounty is yours, that is, if you live long enough.
I have always loved the vibe and ambience of this game. The only thing that holds it back from being a true classic is a decision to switch to a 3D shooting section from time to time, especially for the final battle sequence. I could do without those parts.
still have no idea why this game is still a hidden gem when its probably one of the best point and clicks of the 90s imo. just love the art and the world that the devs created. the ps1 is the best port since it also has a rail gun section AND ITS ALSO FUN! i try to re-play it every halloween
