Yeah this was a thing enough so that it even got an arcade game that feels like a Sunset Riders hack but that’s not a bad thing, now be aware for this review I haven’t seen an episode of Wild West C.O.W.Boys of Moo Mesa so you’ll have to excuse me if I don’t get something right (and if you think I’m being ridiculous with the title of my review there actually is a connection with the ninja turtles apparently they were supposed to be part of the TMNT verse but they were rejected….as villains)
Gameplay and Story: the game opens with Marshall Moo Montana’s love interest Lily Bovine being abducted by a Masked Bull who works for the corrupt mayor (yeah doing research while typing this) so now they have to go after them, and get past all the other baddies, die and you literally become steaks (and now I’m hungry, not for Steak just hungry) and yet for some reason the mayor doesn’t get taken down here (like I said I haven’t seen the cartoon) you shoot chickens to get power ups from eggs, you get a bull charge too which is a cool feature
Graphics: For some reason I felt like i was playing Sunset Riders game (which of course is another western game) the graphics kind of reminded me of that but this game is quite the opposite of it, but these were pretty good, not quite faithful to the cartoon but pretty close
Soundtrack: You know it’s a darn shame that not alot of the theme song is heard in the background because even in the few bits there are, I could tell this was a theme that went hard, and then I heard the song and yeah that’s pretty hard but did the guy that performed it ask for too much money? I will need to listen to the soundtrack again to get a good idea because if I played this more I would have more to say about it
Addictive: Well I definitely want to play it again but I work better on RetroArch with the games on this site and unfortunately the game is not playable on RetroArch here, I had to use a different website in order to play it (once enough storage is gone it won’t perform right sound wise even if you do take out a good chunk of stuff)
Depth: I was able to finish the game in less than an hour but in about 36 minutes and boy did I want more. I don't think they had a bonus round though
Difficulty: this was a coin-op game so I had no issues here because like I have always praised coin-op games being emulated because it means more opportunities to finish it
Post review follow up: I love how the names of these cows sound, Dakota Dude, Cowlarado Cow, Buffalo Bull even though he’s not officially part of the Code of the West gang but he is for this game god knows why he’s here but I guess they just needed it for the 4 player format (wouldn’t it have made more sense if Cowlamity Jane was among them instead? I get that recurring child character wouldn't make sense either)
