I believe that mentioning the American West, we will more or less in the mind outline: sunset, cowboys, revolvers, tumbleweed … But the recent Steam online “Dark West”, overturned the traditional inherent impression in people’s minds, yes, the protagonist is a cowboy dress but copied a pair of iron gloves, meet to whip out the monster dog’s head vampire hunter.

The forbidden western cowboy
The story of this work takes place in the United States after the Civil War, the westward movement is still continuing to advance, and at this time, there are evil vampires haunting the West. The main character, Jesse Rentier, as a vampire hunter trained since childhood, but also the president of the vampire eradication organization Rentier, also needs to personally go out on missions.
He has a very template western cowboy attire – a weathered cowboy hat, with a leather coat, and the standard six-shot revolver and short-barreled shotgun on the waist of the cowboys. But at the same time, he also has some not-so-cowboy things, such as his huge charged hand guard that looks like it can easily tear apart any monster, and the extinguisher on the other wrist constantly flashing light.
Just by looking at this outfit, you might be mistaken to think that this is a TPS game that focuses on shooting gameplay. But after actually seeing the game’s demo, you will know that close combat is the main fighting style of this vampire hunter. At the same time, in order to emphasize the game’s fist to the flesh of the exciting sense of combat, the role of firearms in this work, more is used to help players adjust the pace of battle, to make up for the shortcomings of the existence of melee combat.

Linear levels bring the ultimate thrill
The game’s enemy attack moves are relatively single, but one move can knock off half a tube of blood from the protagonist, and the main means of blood recovery, is through the execution of the enemy to get blood gems. The high-risk and high-reward settings encourage players to take the initiative, but need to exercise their reaction skills.
The game is set up in linear levels, and the puzzle solving gameplay is rather rudimentary, basically just hacking and slashing all the way to the top, and stacking monsters is a serious phenomenon. Of course if you are tired of the current formula, you can use the reset device everywhere to change the style of play, as a way to get a new combat experience.

Melee weapons to get out of the way quickly
As an action-oriented game, the essential work of “Dark Evil West” is done brilliantly – the combat is really very fast.
From the first level, the game gives players two long-range weapons, a rifle and a revolver, and will later add shotguns, flamethrowers, and many other firearms and props.
For example, the rifle and crossbow, can quickly hit the enemy’s weak points, used to clean up some ordinary soldiers is also very convenient; revolver upgraded electric shock and bullet ejection effect, can be used to solve the short and medium range of the enemy; shotgun can break the enemy’s shield; flamethrower can cause continuous burning damage to the enemy in the range
At the same time, the game provides players with two very practical melee weapons – energized handguards and extinguishers. The former is the main weapon of the protagonist’s general attack, in addition to the basic multi-stage moves, there are different moves such as heavy punch attack after dodging, storage uppercut, and uppercut additional heavy punch, etc., you can play a beautiful combination of moves and higher damage. The extinguisher is a combination of offensive and defensive props, it can be deployed through a small power shield, blocking most of the enemy’s attacks, and also through the arc, quickly close the distance between the enemy and us, to facilitate the player in the encounter siege quickly get away!
With the gradual unlocking of skills and equipment, the player’s thrill of battle will be significantly enhanced.
