Western Story: Sometimes the bar eats you

Hey! Remember that game The Oregon Trail? Who knew dysentery could be so much fun? Well anyway, This Western Story game might be something like that, but with a little bit of funny thrown in.


 According to the games Facebook page, Western Story is a social and mobile game "where the Old West is as real as it gets. You'll deal with courageous cowboys, noble Indians, brave settlers and ravenous cattlemen, virtuous lawmen and ruthless outlaws." If the game's developer, Bit Games, still intends for an August 2012 release they're cutting it pretty damn close. Head on over to the game's website to learn more, or hit them up on Facebook, and get in on Western Story's closed beta testing for a taste of what this game has to offer. In the meantime here's some concept art to wet your prairie whistle.
