By Fernando SánchezHard West shows us how well XCOM would do in the Wild West, but it also knows how to stamp a stamp of its own with some mechanics such as luck and special abilities, and a powerful plot weight with decisions of negligible effects. All seasoned with gore, death, arcane rites, devil worship, and other paraphernalia that we did not expect to see in this setting but that in the end it looks good. It can fall into repeatability due to an AI with a lot of resources, and the management parts end up getting in the way, but it is still a highly recommended game if you like strategy and English is not a problem.
Nintendo Life
By Dom Reseigh-LincolnNintendo Switch is enjoying a growing number of turn-based tactical games, and Hard West is another welcome addition to that strategic throng.
Nindie Spotlight
By Justin NationAll things considered, for the price Hard West is a surprisingly competent tactical turn-based shooter than gets more right than it gets wrong...
Cubed3
By Ian SoltesThe game is solid. It's not going to be legendary in any aspect, and has a few problems such as broken abilities, but is enjoyable all-around and nice to play. Effort was put in and it pays off in the form of actually feeling like its own unique title instead of just another rip-off even if the occasional flashback to fighting aliens happens.
GameSpot
By Brett ToddHard West is a satisfyingly creepy mash-up of six-gun horror and tactical combat.
