Read the full game description

Flick 'em Up! builds an entire Western showdown from wooden figures, stand-up buildings, and one simple physical action. Two teams control lawmen and outlaws, flicking a movement disc to dash between cover or flicking bullets to knock rival cowboys down. Ten scenarios turn that foundation into bank robberies, hostage rescues, duels, poison plots, and jailbreaks, each with its own town layout and tactical objective. Hats track which cowboys have acted, hit points make every clean shot matter, and specialist weapons such as rifles and dynamite reward careful angles rather than luck. It works as a focused two-player duel or a noisy team game for a larger group, with enough open table space for improbable ricochets and dramatic misses.
