The Governor is a gem even in its Alpha-stage. REMEMBER this is an ALPHA game!!! There's only a single developer working on this project, and so far, he has done an exceptional job creating a western frontier with lots of detail. Sadly there is limited gameplay, and battle mechanics are not great. You can easily beat bots without a real strategy. A few things to mention about the game is that you start off controlling the capital city surrounded by different tribes, settlements, and villages.

DON'T BUY THIS GAME! UNLESS YOU WANT TO SUPPORT ME!
This game is under heavy construction so be careful if you decide to buy it. There is limited game play exist and there are many bugs still can break the game play. You can play the latest version FREE by downloading the DEMO. If you like the game and you want to support me you can buy it. I will be very happy about it.
Game is in playable condition but not finished yet. There are many implementations on the road but you can see the game's future after you play a two or there rounds. I tried to mix the Paradox Crusader Kings map play with X- Com battle mechanics with western theme. As a sole developer I tried to do my best and reached a certain acceptable status. I'm hoping to finish it in a 6 month.

Another game that flew completly below my (already quite sensible, if i may say so) gaming radar. Considering how few decent western style games are out there, i am glad that i catched it. Firstly i was a little concerned about the amount of frustration the fighting system may bring, but although i had some gunfights that felt more like a square dance with guns, i really enjoy it so far. Looking forward to digging deeper into it and see how it develops, but for now a big like. A like deserved alone for the fact that there is a demo, also.
