About This Game
Features cartoonish graphics and humorous take on historical events, with gameplay alternating between turn-based strategy on a map and arcade-style action sequences.
In battle mode, players directly control infantry, cavalry, and cannons in side-scrolling combat, requiring both tactics and reflexes.
The train robbery mini-game involves stopping trains by destroying tracks, then fighting guards to steal gold shipments.
Originally a European computer game, the NES version became a cult classic for its blend of history and comedy, though its depiction of the Civil War was heavily sanitized.
