Set in 1865, as the Confederacy crumbles, you step into the boots of a Union captain sent to a dusty fort in the middle of nowhere—only to discover a web of danger lurking beneath the desert sun. Bandits, ambushes, mysterious factions, and a creeping threat that goes beyond the battlefield await your ragtag squad.

A Tactical Twist on the Western Genre

Unlike your usual outlaw-fueled shootouts, Fistful of Yankees leans into real-time tactical combat, emphasizing positioning, terrain, and quick decision-making over brute force. You’ll need to make use of cover, flanking maneuvers, special unit abilities, and even well-timed dynamite to turn the tide against overwhelming odds.

Combat gets tense, fast. One moment you’re holding down a canyon chokepoint; the next, you’re scrambling to hold off an ambush deep in Navajo territory. Every scenario across the six-chapter campaign delivers a new tactical puzzle, whether it’s repelling a train raid or making a last stand at an isolated outpost.

Streamlined Strategy, Maximum Impact

To keep things focused on action, Fistful of Yankees keeps the overhead light with a Prestige system that rewards performance in battle. The better your unit fares, the more reinforcements you’ll earn for future missions. It’s a simple but effective layer that adds replayability without getting bogged down in micromanagement.

“We wanted a game that’s all action and no grind,” says Alexandre Gatt, lead dev at Pulsar Creation. “Something you can pick up after work and actually finish—fun, focused, and full of western flair.”

Key Features:

• Real-Time Tactical Combat – Outnumbered? Outgunned? Outsmart them. Use positioning, cover, and smart tactics to survive brutal shootouts.

• A Gritty Western Story – Follow a Union captain and his men across a dying frontier, through six chapters of escalating conflict and intrigue.

• Minimal Management, Maximum Fun – Skip the spreadsheets. The Prestige system keeps reinforcements fair and fast, so you stay in the fight.

• Cinematic Presentation – With nods to western comics and classic films, Fistful of Yankees nails the dusty tone and tense pacing of the genre.

Whether you’re a fan of Desperados, Commandos, or just love a good shootout with some tactical depth, Fistful of Yankees is shaping up to be a fresh new take on the Wild West. Saddle up and mark your calendars for August 14.
