Defunct Games reviews El Hijo: A Wild West Tale by Honig Studios, available March 25 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Switch. Also available on PC and Stadia.

The term "non-violent" is rarely used to describe the Wild West, but it's more than appropriate in El Hijo. This is a cute and surprisingly playful stealth game starring a six-year-old kid on a journey to avoid guards and reunite with his mother. It hits most of the western tropes, all without devolving into a bunch of shootouts or bar fights. It may not break new grounds in the stealth genre and some of the level interaction is a little wonky at times, but with large and varied levels that can be completed in a number of ways, El Hijo: A Wild West Tale is an easy game to recommend.
