But while in many respects Weird West achieves some of its grander ambitions, it fails to nail some of the basics. At its best, WolfEye Studios' first outing offers delightfully chaotic combat and an interesting supernatural setting that leaves no actions without consequence. "Weird West sets its sights high by promising player freedom and a responsive world to butterfly effect the hell out of, and it very nearly delivers on all of it. I think I'm going to start a support group." - Rachel Weber Push Square - 7/10

Though if you find yourself having an existential crisis after eating too many corpses, do feel free to slide into my DMs. The consequences are just twists in the story you're creating alongside the main narrative, and it's hard to imagine that two people's playthroughs will ever look exactly alike. "In the end, Weird West makes the rollercoaster ride through its world so compelling that you'll just stop caring about doing everything perfectly. Fans itching for a game that allows freedom of choice in both story and gameplay at every turn should look no further than Weird West." - Adrian Morales GamesRadar - 4/5
"Wolfeye’s attempt to bring the immersive sim genre to an isometric game works well overall, albeit with a few hiccups in handling combat and looting. "Weird West's five dark-fantasy adventures contain a wagonload of bizarre encounters, twists, and reveals, and its stealth and chaotic combat are challenging but come with the built-in safety nets of unlimited slow-motion and an old-school quickload system." - Dan Stapleton GameRant - 4/5 That’s your cue." - Eric Van Allen IGN - 8/10 Or you just like the idea of charging into a group of enemies as an unstoppable fantasy monstrosity, shotgun barrels blazing, with electric western riffs ringing out in the distance. It might have some hitches and messiness, but it’s a journey worth taking if you’ve ever been nostalgic about the good ol’ days. " Weird West presents a bizarre world to tell a story about real, human struggles. The characters here may have been dishonoured, they may have fallen prey to schemes beyond their reckoning, but they all makes choices-and a mark-before they are put in the dirt." - Josh Wise Destructoid - 8/10 "But where that game fixed its gaze on America, with a distinct twang of Mark Twain,Weird West looks instead to Colantonio’s prized setting: the immersive sim, its vales both wildly specific and given to flights of fantasy. Weird West subverts expectations, twisting well-trodden cowboy tropes into dark fantasy vignettes brought to life by immersive sandbox elements." - Alex Van Aken Videogamer - 8/10 "Regardless, developer Wolfeye Studios has crafted one hell of a debut release. There are a lot of excellent old-school isometric adventure games in Weird West's DNA, but not enough new-school polish for it to be something great." - Justin Clark GameInformer - 8.5/10 I wanted answers to the mysteries presented, since the heroes and villains of these tales are captivating, and the payoffs, by and large, are worthwhile. The writing, the story, the characters, and the ways in which your actions have an effect on the world are all enthralling. "Is the struggle worth it, though? Rather emphatically, the answer is still yes.
