Our take on Lawless West
The focus on directing a small specialist group gives up the breadth of commanding large armies. Limited funds also make resource allocation part of the campaign, leaving less room for unrestricted tactical choices.
What is Lawless West?
Lead a special enforcement group created by presidential order to handle dangerous cases across the United States.
Manage the team directly, assign members according to their specializations, develop their abilities, and make tactical decisions during battles. The campaign contains over 50 levels, with missions presented across day and night conditions and changing weather. A limited budget adds a resource constraint to the group's operations. The game combines team management, character progression, and direct involvement in combat within a cowboy-themed Wild West setting.
