Reception
Wild West Guns received mixed reviews from critics.
Official Nintendo Magazine scored the game at 80%, praising the variety in settings and the interactive environments, and the simple point and shoot gameplay, though they felt genre experts might find it too easy. WiiWare World, which gave it a 7/10, felt the game was "addictive and attractive" and "very well executed", and highlighted the depth in gameplay that requires players to carefully choose their shots to score the most points. However, they felt the relatively small range of objectives, settings and enemies was "somewhat disappointing", and that the omission of scoreboards affected replay value.
In contrast, Eurogamer was less impressed with the game, giving it a 5/10 and calling it "a rather limited and repetitive experience". 1UP.com gave it a C+ grade, believing the game was "a little pricey" at 1000 Wii Points. IGN, which scored it a 6.8/10, also had issues with the price and the shallow nature of the game, but otherwise felt it was "fun", praising the tight controls and polished presentation. gm
