Westward III: Gold Rush

Westward III: Gold Rush Game Customer Reviews

Anyone who has enjoyed the previous two Westward games will not be disappointed in this third in the series. The same "build a town as you go" theme applies to this game nicely. There are also some nice new features: hunting for food and furs, mining silver as well as gold, snowy scenery, exciting side quests, and even a headless horseman! This game has proven to be hours of fun, and I keep discovering new things!

Westward III is a highly captivating game, that whisks you away to a time of boom or bust where everyone was staking a claim and going for the gold (literally!). Its ability to combine adventure role-play with real-time strategy makes Westward III a goldmine for countless hours of fun for kids and adults alike.

Westward III does what its predecessors have done quite well - deliver an evenly-paced wild west adventure in the form of a casual simulation. It's got a great sense of humor evident at every turn, and the gameplay itself is about as captivating as it comes. It doesn't innovate far beyond its predecessors, but who says every game has to be a pioneer? Enjoyable, challenging and fun down to the last nugget.
