I have been a huge fan of any type of adventure exploration type of game, but this game pretty much beats its Westward predecessors. From resource management, to building towns, trading, and defeating bandits, Westward IV has it all. This time, you get to manage a railroad with your town's wealth being dependent on trading using your railroad. The game feels longer because of these additional added elements and quests involved, and the Westward series keeps growing due to their popularity, unique gameplay, and rich storyline. With the fact that this game is available for download before Christmas, it is a great gift for anybody who loves the role playing, exploration, Western genres. I highly recommend it.

I've been playing the Westward games since the first one came out and they are by far my favorite computer games. Westward IV is the best one yet! I really can't say anything bad about any of them, just that they keep getting better. The only problem I have with Westward is that I have a hard time shutting it down for the night. It is very addictive. You get to create your own settlement and start building up your town with new buildings and inviting new settlers to your town. You have to keep everyone happy or they will move out of your town. You also have to watch out for the Bandits. They show up all over the place and try to shoot up your town. In Westward IV you have one main "town" that you will keep coming back to. Throughout the game you will travel to other little towns and help the citizens out with whatever problem they are having in exchange for running your railroad through thier town. One of my favorite little extras with both Westward 3 and Westward 4 is the Market Place Challenge. You are given 3 or 4 minutes to fill orders for the market clerk. Each level gets a little harder, but with each level you get bigger rewards. The most important reward is "Experience". You have to have certain amounts of experience to purchase the rights to new buildings you can build in your town. Can't say enough great things about this game. To me it's an A+.

I love this game. I found just a few problems. Sometimes it will not let us keep and use the rat key. Sometimes it will not unlock the market challenges when completed tasks are done. But over all I really like this game.
