Wyatt Earp's Old West is a computer game developed by Grolier Electronic Publishing in 1994 for the IBM PC and Macintosh.
This is really one obscure game - wonder if anyone has ever played this?
It's an educational type game and the main point of the program involves you wandering through the town, looking at things and walking up and down the streets and alleys, in and around the buildings, etc. Like all good cd scripts, this one allows the user to increase or decrease the depth of involvement at will. A background narration is also available through the entire tour of the old town.
The package also includes a "Shootout" game, so be careful because a bandit could jump out of nowhere and begin shooting at you. You must be fast on the draw, otherwise you will end up in Boot Hill Graveyard. It's not a first person shooter quality by any means, just a fun diversion that it was meant to be.
The gameplay is pretty easy and is completely point-and click. Wyatt Earp's Old West is a well-organized CD, that has a wealth of interesting info, movie clips thrown in for good measure, and is a well directed, information-oriented computer game.
Conclusion - Wyatt Earp is enjoyable, as well as testing the player's knowledge in the game of Old West Trivia.
Rated this 8/10
