Description

Alternate title: The Westerner

Third Person

"Bearing in mind that nowadays you often buy a 50 dollar game to play for approximately 10 hours, out of which six are spent on super-obscure puzzles with no feedback whatsoever, it is refreshing to play a game that lasts for a good 20-25 hours and that has a story that progresses steadily. The ending is also one of the best I have seen in adventure games. It is very cinematic, it is not abrupt and it comes as a natural climax to a satisfying story. You also have to admire the developers’ efforts to go the extra mile and include … outtakes that you will get to see right after the game ends and that are completely hilarious.

"In a few words... If you miss playing an adventure that makes you laugh out loud and that gives you the feeling that you are starring in a comedy movie, then make sure to not miss out on Wanted: A Wild Western Adventure."

*EDITOR'S NOTE: Although not mentioned on most pages reflecting Wanted info (including online retailers such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble), this game does not work with integrated video chipsets. This detail isn't reflected on the Adventure Company game page or Tech Support Knowledge Base. The Revistronic page indicates "32MB T&L 3D Graphic Card," but note that the Adventure Company page calls for 64MB rather than 32MB of video RAM. Further, TAC calls for an 850 MHz processor, while Revistronic reflects 733 MHz.
