I would DEFINITELY buy this game. I bought it a while ago and found it very entertaining and funny. You can go up to a veriety of different, humorous charactures that will tell you different missions you have to do to advance in the game. Just don't back talk to them or they might never speak to you again. I would strongly recommend it.

Dust is a vey interesting game that the box would have you belive is just a western shoot-up. Not spoil it, but after a long peroid of gameplay you think you heve solved alll the puzzles of the game, but you just barly got half way through. Duat is a lot of fun and it is one of the few adventure games i have played more than once, because it is so interesting.

Lots of fun

This game really takes you back to the wild west. It haseverything; a town drunk, crooked mayor, saloon/brothel, card sharks,and Billy the Kid. I held back from the 5th star because . . . the underworld level is kind of boring. Everything before it is great, though. I would definately recommend this game if you're looking for an entertaining trip to the wild west.

So much fun!

There is so much fun to be had with this game that you will wonder why it is so cheap! The graphics are very nice, especially the cinematics...and the little town of Diamondback is inviting. Even if you aren't a fan of westerns (I'm certainly not) you will enjoy this game for its variety of puzzles, characters, mini-games, and places to explore.

Many games have few, if any, characters to enrich the storyline, but Dust is full of them, and they may help or hinder you, depending on how you interact with them. This is also a game with inventory items to acquire and use to your advantage - but the game is not reduced to a boring treasure hunt...many of the objects you will use are there just for fun...for instance, things to eat or read, that don't further the plot, but make you feel at home.

Another great thing about this game is the ever-present (and often wicked) humor that will keep you smiling to yourself for days.

I can't say enough good things about this game. I've played many games, but I've never had as much fun as I have with Dust. ...

This game blows!

I agree with this much: the western genre is fascinating and wish there were more games with this premise. However, when I bought it I didn't realize how horribly dated and poorly executed this game is. The performances are nothing short of terrible. In fact, it's obvious the makers didn't use real actors, and may have actually done the voices themselves. I don't understand why everyone is giving this game 4 and 5 stars, but then again, I haven't finished it, so it may have some redeeming qualities. If you're looking for a good period-piece adventure game, you shoud spend the extra $ and get Grim Fandango.

Dust is truly a challenging game. Its challenging puzzles, laughable characters, and demonstrates many examples of irony. Take Dr. H. Rodham for example (Flowers? I thought we were finished with her). The entire game, despite being a bit slow, is the kind of game that you look back at and think, "Wow!"

Dust is one of those games that has low budget and price written all over it.. yet is a joy to play almost throughout. The basic gist of the game is that you are a stranger drifting through the old west. After a near gunfight with a known Billy the Kid Wannabee, you flee into the country to come across a out of the way town in the middle of the desert. The town sits almost forgotten to the world, yet the inhabinets are far from ordinary.

Unlike many adventure games, Dust uses its characters to the fullest. In almost every scene a character is present,subject to your questions and interaction. Few times will you wander aimlessly seeing nothing but well structured graphics to keep you company. Although the game used real actors(term used loosely) to do the interaction scenes... the acting is pretty atrocious. However the game's humor and mulitple characters more then makes up for it. The game's plot coasts constantly through, and actually makes you eager for every new twist and makes you hate to see the game end.

The game also isn't a lineal, "you have to do this to advance" type game for the most part. The game actually is fun in that there are several different tangents that your actions can cause. Although they don't affect the game outcome.. they provide different directions for the characters to act.

My only major gripe of the game was the underworld portion. Ninety percent of the game was in the town, and was flat out fun at every turn. However the underworld is not only much more difficult then the rest(got to know the certain way to beat it), it strays from the tongue in cheek mood of most the game. I would have been perfectly content with the game ending after the gunfight with "The Kid".

However if you see Dust in a store.. its definatley worth the [money], and couple of days you will put into it. You probably will never forget the characters of the game.

Give it a try

All of Cyberflix's games have been great, and Dust is no exception. Although the graphics of this game were not as good as in Titanic and Redjack, they were better than a lot of games. Set in an old western town, Diamondback, this game includes a large cast of characters, good humor, and plenty of adventure. You can talk to different characters, and get things and information from them, use objects to help you (or hurt you), and do a little bit of fighting. After hearing what a character has to say, you have a series of choices of what to say. This game is witty, challenging, and exciting.
