Sierra Madre: The Wild West

Review

Greetings Marshall: It's time to saddle up your trusty steed and ride out yonder to the hills, there's some bandits out there been robbing and killing folk like the law doesn't exist in these parts. With your trusty rifle and six-shooter, you will show them the law is still alive and well in the west. So come on partner, lets round up that horse and ride; there is killing to be done!

Sierra Madre: The Wild West is an Early Access title and the first release on Steam by Broken Dreams Studio on Dec 17, 2018. and is in a very early stage of development. It is a western themed adventure game with some survival aspects. The title still needs a lot of work, but patches are coming about every 2 weeks adding additional content and fixes. They will be adding additional quest, npc's and additional areas to explore along with other content.

The title has an interesting concept for a western game.  There isn't a lot in the game at the moment, but there is enough to get you riding your horse while killing bandits; there is a lot of content in the works. You have to maintain food and hydration levels. There is no building or farming, but you can place a tent for saving your game. The only looting you do is from the bandits you kill. You will hunt various animals for their meat and skins. There are a few quests you can do in the game; they will be listed on a bulletin board in every town at the sheriffs.

I like the concept of the game; it does still need a lot of work. There are a few towns in place to explore and a lot of traders and animals to hunt, using weapons modeled after authentic guns used in the old west. There is only one upgrade per weapon to obtain in the game at this time. As you ride between towns you randomly come across bandits who want to kill and rob you. Now and then you will also come across a none violent npc in the wild, so you do not always have to shoot first and question later.
As this is in the very early stages of Early Access, if you are not excited to play the game in its current state (willing to help the game grow by reporting bugs and giving input on additional features), you might want to wait until it has reached a stage further along in development.

@ Its current state I can only give a lower score. As patches are added and the title makes it to final release, I will revisit the title and modify my score.
