A Season of Heroes
In the midst of the Great Depression a small Western town slips further down into despair with the killing of a small lonesome boy who attempts to rob a jewelry store.

The game fires the town with an excitement it has never known and involves all the citizens and the wonderful characters who play their part in this story of challenge, love, and magic.
