After completing his task in Skunny - Save our Pizzas, Skunny's time machine did some weird things and it sent him to America, in the time of the wild west! You have to save Skunny from the Indians and the Cowboys using the gun Skunny has. Meanwhile, you also have to save the sheep ranch of Skunny's dad.
A lot of things happen in this game. Skunny in the Wild West has an excellent story, good graphics and a good gameplay, so this game might be a lot of fun to play.

I remember when I first played Skunny - In the Wild West. Long story short, it was a demo I got from a CD. I really really enjoyed it, especially the sound effects, which will never be forgotten
Graphics:
The graphics are in colour, very cartoony and suitable for all ages. Because this game is quite old, it does not possess the 3D or such effects found in modern games, but you will never find objects ambiguous in it. If you are a lover of modern graphics and play games only for the graphics, this is a game you should definitely avoid. However, if you love games more than for its appearance, but for the entertainment value (which I will discuss soon), then this is a game that will keep you playing for hours.
Sound:
I remember the sound was extremely well done! There were bleeps, beeps, boings and other cartoon sounds you would expect, and the best thing about it is that none of them sound over-computerised. They sound like the natural sound you would find in a children's cartoon. I cannot remember the music unfortunately, possibly because the demo did not include music
Gameplay:
This is the gold nugget of the platform game. Basically, you have to jump up and down and avoid the bad guys, shooting them with your gun (which you can fire very very fast if you have good reflexes). There are also some interesting items you can pick up, such as potions and sheep. With all those elements put together, along with sidequests, this game is definitely one which will remain in your heart for many years to come. A note: the difficulty is quite high, so those without patience may not want to play for too long, or you might destroy your computer!
Replayability:
Although the begginning may become very repetative due to its difficulty, after developing skill in it, you will definitely want to play through at least 2 or 3 times. It is one of those classics that when you play it once a few years ago, you will want to come back to it a few years later.
Conclusion:
This has definitely been one of my favourite games; I played it on my Windows 95 for hours on end. Thinking about that time spent (wasted? :D) on the computer really brings a tear to my eye. It is definitely one of the best games I have ever encountered, and I will make sure I finish the whole game at least once in my life.
