Gunslinger is the most well-regarded of the Call of Juarez series, a standalone historical shooter with an unreliable narrator named Silas Greaves. Richard Cobbett gave it a score of 84 in his review, saying, “As expected, it’s a linear shooter set in a romanticised version of the Wild West (which the game itself at one point admits is complete balls). It’s also a shooter Greaves and his audience comment on throughout, the narration routinely changing the world to fit the story on the fly. At one point, for instance, you fight through a mine full of dynamite that only an idiot would go into with guns blazing. “That’s why I didn’t,” rasps Greaves, rewinding the story to tell it ‘properly’.”
