A tipsy sheriff. One saloon. Hold the line.

Wild Showdown is a saloon shoot-out in the style of 1980s LCD handheld games. Step left and right and fire straight up to smash the plates, bottles and glasses the bartender throws. Dodge the apples and ashtrays from grumpy customers, pour whiskey on the dynamite at your feet — and when the swinging doors creak, face the desperado.

That segment-by-segment LCD feel

The sheriff fires straight up and smashes a plate, a bottle and a glass in one column — **Triple shot**Line up a plate, a bottle and a glass and smash all three with one shot for 150 points — the bartender throws in a bonus bottle.

Dynamite flies in from the door while a customer stands up to throw an ashtray — **Watch the dynamite**From the 2nd pattern, dynamite flies across the saloon. Shoot it and — BOOM.

The sheriff pours whiskey on the dynamite fuse at the far right — **Douse the fuse**In the 3rd pattern the bartender drops dynamite at the far right. Get there and press RIGHT once more to pour whiskey on the fuse.

The desperado kneels and aims while the sheriff steps out from behind an overturned table; the customers hide — **The showdown**After 20 hits the desperado walks in and everyone ducks. Wait for his shooting pose — draw too early and he fires back.

The desperado flails after being hit while the sheriff celebrates with a bottle — **You win!**Hit him three times and he flails; the sheriff celebrates with a swig and moves on to the next pattern.

The handheld-style body: FIRE button on the left, L/R rocker on the right, key strip below — **Handheld body**FIRE on the left, the L/R rocker on the right, and PAUSE / ♪ / RANK / HELP / START below — just like holding a handheld.

How to play

Four spots, one revolver, a whole saloon

The sheriff has four spots on the floor and fires straight up the whole column. Read the bartender's rhythm, and keep an eye on the customers.

🍾 Shoot

Smash plates, bottles and glasses. One, two or three items in one shot score 10, 50 or 150.

🍎 Dodge

His ashtrays land on the two left spots, her apples on the two right spots. When someone stands up, move.

🧨 Dynamite & whiskey

From the 2nd pattern, shooting dynamite is a miss. In the 3rd, walk to the far right and press RIGHT once more to pour.

🤠 Showdown

The desperado fakes. The overturned table stops only 3 bullets; hit him 3 times to win.
