Short Review

The Feud: Wild West Tactics is an XCOM style game with a old wild west setting. The game revolves around a historical feud between the Hatfield and McCoy families. The campaign mode takes you through the story of the feud, while in saga mode the player can build and conquer territory.

--------

Graphics: 7 / 10

The graphic are pretty solid for what they are. The character design is well done and helps with giving each character some personality. The animations could be a little bit smoother and the battle terrain does look a little similar after some time, though other than that, everything works well and within the theme of the game.

--------

Sound: 6 / 10

The background music fits the theme of the game well, though the soundtrack isn't anything too exciting. The weapon and gun sounds are good.

--------

Mechanics: 7 / 10

It's XCOM, but in the wild west. There isn't much more to say. It's a turn-based style game where positioning your character's matter. You can take cover behind or around objects, and have a certain percentage chance to hit an enemy or be hit yourself. There are a variety of missions available and most revolve around killing the opposition.

There is a Saga mode which changes things up a little bit. In this case you're building an empire, managing resources and triggering events (which are usually fights). You can upgrade your territory and recruit units to essentially build an army.

The game might be a bit tricky for newcomers to the genre and the game did feel a bit slow. That being said, it is a solid western experience.

Thanks to the developer for giving me the opportunity to review the title, as well as anyone who took this review into consideration, I hope it helped.
