Will I like this game?

If you enjoy the boss rush gameplay of Cuphead, the white-knuckled western aesthetic of Red Dead Redemption, the tight gunplay of Arizona Sunshine and Raw Data, and the magic and mystery of The Dark Tower, then it's time to meet Cold Iron.



Will you answer the call and fight for justice in this epic Old West tale or surrender to the ruthless cowboys and fearsome monsters that threaten every step of your journey? Each dueling showdown requires a unique set of skills as you string together combos of speed, accuracy, and intelligence in an arcade boss rush with intuitive motion controls. The average cowboy spends his whole life dreaming of gold, bounties, and welcoming saloons, but your story holds more surprises than just bullets and survival.
