About 12 is Better Than 6

About this game

New mechanics:

  • Horse chase - this is what Westerns are supposed to have, right? Actual horse chase in a desert!
  • River rafting - you appear on a raft in the middle of a river, what would you do? Shoot and pray to gods, of course!

Rob two trains, because one is never enough.

New enemies:

  • Berserk - a barrage of bullets and contempt for his own death. No one’s joking around in Mexico!
  • Dynamite-equipped Foes - fences and fallen tables are not the safe protection they used to be.

Don't forget to add 12 is Better Than 6: The Apostles to your Wishlist!

About the Game

It is 1873. An escaped slave is slowly walking through the desert, making his way from Mexico to Texas. He keeps a revolver close and is wearing the sombrero stolen from a dead man.

Key Features:

Deadly gunfights

  • You’ll need to cock the revolver with one trigger before being able to shoot by pressing another trigger. One false move and you’ll be overrun in an instant.

Authentic weapons

  • Winchesters, double-barreled guns, revolvers, and Gatling guns will gladly help you to destroy all of the gringos. By the way, we have a RAT with dynamite

An enthralling story

  • Live through the journey of an escaped Mexican prisoner fighting for survival and freedom in the 1870s in the United States

Choose your style

  • You can choose to take a more stealthy approach to surprise your enemies, or even just sneak straight past them

A splendid art style

  • The game is drawn by hand with pen and paper to create an interesting visual experience

Setting

  • Real places and towns, the spirit of the desert, and the most desperate Bandidos of the district will help you to plunge into the breathing and cruel world of the Wild West

Upgrades

  • You'll find breastplates that will have a 50% chance to deflect some bullets, a fast recharging skill that will allow the hero to insert 2 bullets at once, extreme accuracy (less spread for your shots), being able to kill an enemy in stealth without attracting the unwanted attention of his friends, and more!

Good game. It's short and you can complete it in about 5 hours or so tho. The style is roguelike top down shooter, which I enjoy loads.. The black and white makes the blood stand out and makes it look cool and kinda gory. Achievements are easy. In terms of customisation, you can find and equip hats and you can use different weapons. I am only giving it 4/5 because I wish it was longer. Other than that I'd recommend.
