Dead Man's Hand

Dead Man's Hand

The game is somewhat unusual in that the player plays poker between levels to gain extra health and ammunition. The character is armed with 4 standard weapons: a knife, a pistol, a rifle and a shotgun. Other weapons that can be found are TNT and whiskey bombs. The player can shoot at objects such as whiskey bottles, cans and enemies to collect legend points to fill up the "trick shot" meter, which lets the character use the secondary fire mode, which varies depending on the current weapon. The combat in the game also makes use of the game's physics engine. The player can trigger physics-based traps, such as shooting a rock that falls on an enemy below - kills achieved this way are rewarded with extra points and a higher "trick shot" meter. Dead Man's Hand is characterized by a protagonist of Hispanic (or Mestizo) descent.
