Wooden Nickel

NOTE: Wooden Nickel's development is currently on hold, but we've decided to make the demo free to download. Enjoy!
A frontier adventure set in the great, remorseless Old West.

As a stranger drifting through, you step inside the curiosities of the local newspaper to explore a tiny, hard luck town and the lands around it. Meet the locals, wander the desert, and make choices that shape each morning's paper in a growing spread of possibilities.

• Embrace curiosity. Step inside the articles and advertisements of a colorful Old West newspaper that responds to your part in its story.
• Make connections. Uncover an increasingly interconnected set of mysteries, absurdities, and unexpected friendships—or hostilities.
• Come back soon. Your train south arrives in one week, leaving you to wonder what untrod paths lie still behind in this land of dust and ambition.
