It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 62 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Sir Whoopass™: Immortal Death ($10.19, scores 54) and Red Dead Online ($19.99, scores 57) both outscore it.

What players say
Evil West is the perfect "mid-tier" game that you would have rented from a store, bought on a sale, or borrowed from a friend. It's not mid-tier because it's gameplay, story, or general production value isn't good enough; it's because there isn't enough in the box and I want more. It's the kind of game a 15 year old version of myself would have fallen in love with, but that I hold an affection and appreciation for...

On sale it's a good time killer. No reload button, no map, the game is relatively linear but the enemies and combat get pretty repetitive. I skipped every cutscene so if you're looking for a great story this may not be it. It's stable, looks great for what it is. 6.2/10
I would recommend it for solo play, but for co-op is a heck no. The game is very glitchy and unstable which results to disconnections... Unsure why the ping even shoots up and disconnects steam chat as well...

About the game
A dark menace consumes the Old West. In solo or coop, fight with style in visceral, explosive combat against bloodthirsty monstrosities. Eradicate the vampiric hordes with your lightning-fueled gauntlet and become a Wild West Superhero.
