Law of the West (1985) by Accolade Speedrun
Played by MilkToast
The entirety of the game happens in a small frontier town, and the player takes the role of the town's Sheriff. The scenes are located along the town's main street, with a view from behind the Sheriff's back (the view is so close that only the Sheriff's waist, right arm, and gun are visible). Various other characters appear on the main street in front of the Sheriff.
The actual gameplay mostly involves the Sheriff interacting with the various characters via a selection menu similar to those in contemporary graphical adventures. For each line the opposing character says, the game offers a selection of four different responses, and the discussion progresses depending on the chosen response.
Depending on the outcome of a discussion, the Sheriff may get involved in a gunfight. In this case, the gameplay becomes a test of pure shooting skills, as the Sheriff has to shoot his opponent before getting shot himself.

Shoot first then ask question!
This game has so much to offer, but nothing to be seen here.
