Overview

A freeware title from Mario Speranda, in this game two adversaries are in the desert, each with only 3 cacti to protect them from the rain bullets being traded between the two. Can you use your cover more effectively, or will your friend\frenemy be a better shot? It is almost High Noon, so you had better hope you're a better marksman. Players of a certain age will recognize the inspiration behind Gringos: an ancient arcade game called Boot Hill (or the even older Gun Fight). Cowboy on the left, cowboy on the right, cacti or other objects between them and a stagecoach whizzing periodically up the middle. Thus assembled, what do the two cow-gentlemen in our little scene do? Shoot at each other, of course! A shot to the belly kills instantly, but a shot to the leg merely wounds: the wounded player can then only move half as fast (a tragic spectacle) but can still win. It's a very satisfying thing, actually, hobbling around on one leg and still managing to nail that flea-bitten varmint on the other side.
