Wild Guns 1994

Is it still worth playing?

Natsume's 1994 shooting gallery game for the Super Nintendo, set in the Wild West with steampunk influences. Annie and the bounty hunter Clint seek revenge for the death of her family. You control either of them sidestepping and jumping in the foreground while shooting enemy robots in the background and dodging bullets, which combines elements of third person shooters and light gun games. There are six levels, each ending with a mini boss and a final boss, and single player and cooperative modes. You can jump, dive and roll to evade gunfire, a Look Out! text bubble shows when you can dodge bullets, and enemies' thrown dynamite can be tossed back. You still keep moving every second, dodging in the foreground while you shoot into the background.
