WANTED

Draw or die—WANTED drops you into a lawless frontier where every saloon, canyon, and shadow hides a gunslinger with a twitchy trigger finger.

I wasn't expecting much when I clicked into WANTED, but the second the first duel started I was hooked. You're a bounty hunter in a town that's basically a pressure cooker—every NPC could be a friend, a target, or a backshooter. The mouse controls your aim with a surprisingly tight feel; you'll need to lead your shots and watch your ammo, because reloads take just long enough to get you killed if you're sloppy. The keyboard movement is snappy, and strafing around cover feels natural. I remember one firefight behind the saloon where I popped out to take a shot, missed, and had to duck behind a water trough while bullets chewed the wood above my head. That kind of tension keeps you coming back. The game isn't just about reflexes, though. There's a light reputation system—kill the wrong person and the whole town turns on you, but take down a posted outlaw and you'll earn cash for better guns and gear. The AI is decent; enemies flank, use cover, and sometimes feign retreat. It's not a deep RPG, but those little decisions make each run feel different. The levels are short and replayable, perfect for a quick break. My only gripe is the occasional unfair spawn, but that's part of the frontier charm—you learn to check your corners. If you like fast, tense shootouts with a western flavor, WANTED delivers. It's not trying to be Red Dead, but for a free browser game it punches way above its weight. Grab your mouse, keep your finger on the trigger, and don't trust anyone wearing a black hat.

Aim for center mass early on; headshots are tempting but the sway will make you miss more than you hit. Cover is everything—strafing behind barrels or troughs saves your hide when reloading. Check your six constantly; enemies love spawning behind you after a firefight. Buy a faster reload upgrade before a better gun; the time save matters more than damage. Don't shoot every stranger. Some are civilians, and killing them turns the whole town hostile. Use the environment: shoot lanterns to set enemies on fire or cause distractions.
