@Twistin
You don't need to know this one. According to my knowledge, it's available in GERMAN ONLY

Nope, there is a "limited" Version on Aminet : http://de.aminet.net/aminetbin/find?farwest AND andreas also provided a screenshot (on GAEB) of a mag that tested the full version !!!

P.S : @andreas, could you post that snip here again ?

Translation:
F u m b l e
"Who hasn't ever had the wish to try his fortune as a Wild West hero? Well, that's just what you can do in Far West by Automagick Industries! Having satisfiedly puzzled together your own hero in a RPG-like editor, you find yourself back in N. Y. at the days of the Wild West era. In this world you can sow your wild oats to your heart's content and become a hero or bandit by playing a couple of strategic and action-filled scenes.
But even Winnetou fans should go burying "Far West" by the next best river bend! The game consists of a quite incoherent welter of different action and strategy scenes. Even the graphics and the other surroundings appear tawdry and carelessly drawn.

There are three limitations (according to the readme) of the Aminet Version of FarWest

[snip]
- The Status Points will be erased if these will be 150.000 or more (Full Version will be won if you reach 1.000.000 Status Points)
- no save or load
- no extra missions
[/snip]

And the Version on Aminet is from 1994 and is AGA fixed, the full Version from 1991 will not work on AGA machines .... Hmmm, even the fact that the game is really bad someone out there got to have it
