West Hunt is a 1-8 player social deduction game set in the Old West! Among the hardworking townsfolk hides an Outlaw or two causing mischief and mayhem across town. Luckily, there are eagle-eyed Sheriffs ready to sniff them out! No matter what role you play, you're sure to have a hog-killin' time!
As a Sheriff, you must identify and eliminate the Outlaw(s) before they can complete their objectives, such as stealing from the bank, poisoning the water supply, or praying at the church. As an Outlaw, you must stealthily carry out these tasks without getting caught by the observant Sheriffs.
Outlaws can use abilities like teleportation, shape-shifting, and smoke bombs to blend in with the NPCs and conceal their identity and movements. They must time their actions carefully and try to mislead the Sheriffs through deception and misdirection. Conversely, Sheriffs must pay close attention to the behaviors and movements of the townspeople, looking for any suspicious patterns or inconsistencies that might reveal the Outlaw(s).
Playing as the Sheriff can be quite challenging, as players must balance the need to quickly identify the Outlaw(s) while also avoiding accidentally shooting innocent civilians. Sheriffs have limited abilities compared to the Outlaws, and must rely on their observation skills, deductive reasoning, and communication with their team to succeed. This asymmetric balance between the Sheriffs and Outlaws creates a dynamic and tense gameplay experience where both sides must adapt their strategies and outmaneuver the other.
The game's randomly generated tasks, varying Outlaw abilities, and unpredictable player behavior all contribute to a high level of replayability, as every match can play out differently. Players can experiment with different roles, strategies, and modes of play, such as 1v1, 2v2, or even custom setups. The social aspect of the game, where players can engage in voice chat and bluff/deceive each other, is also a major draw for many.
