At the bottom of the screen is a dialogue tree. Different types of people in the town will come up to you and start a conversation. You have a choice of four replies to each question, and how you react will determine their attitude towards you. Either way, it's pretty amusing. The dialogue is pretty good for a game of this time period, and it's kinda cool to see how people react to your comments at times.
Controls are incredibly simple.
If you want to reply to someone, scroll through the replies by hitting down on your keyboard or joystick. If you want to draw your gun, just hit up, aim with the crosshairs, and hit fire to shoot. I suppose there's an ending to this or some sort of plot involved, but I never have gotten very far. Law of the West isn't an amazing game by any means, but it is kinda cool to mess around with for awhile. Contact us for more information on GameSpy Industries.
