Runaway Saloon Arcade

Runaway Arcade Saloon

An arcade machine has escaped the saloon, and all the mighty cowboys of the land are hunting it down! Play as the arcade machine and run away from the cowboys for as long as possible.

Use WASD to move around, and point and click with the mouse to shoot coins to destroy cowboys. However, coins are limited, so make sure to collect as many coins as possible. Press Escape to pause the game.

There are various objects that can be pushed around, and cowboys will be destroyed if they’re hit by a flying object. Collect Cowboy Hats to gain a speed boost for a few seconds. Collect Sheriff Badges to earn additional points.
