Westerado is a fantastic free browser game, a western whodunnit and revenge story that combines great scene-setting visuals with easily-grasped and simplified JRPG conventions. If you've ever played Zelda and loved a spaghetti western, you'll find yourself an hour in before you know it. Even the music is absolutely spot-on.

    There goes my afternoon.  Hot damn!

    Zelda is not a JRPG.

      You’re not a Scotsman.

        I know what you imply, but then Rob’s description makes no sense at all.

    We were livin’ a quiet life, when one day for no reason my wife and my children were killed in cold blood! And I was wounded, unable to help. Why this? Why us? Why? I won’t let them get away with it. I’ll get every last one of ‘em!

    What about those who’ve played Zelda but didn’t like it all that much?

    Though I’m also disqualified for not liking westerns, spaghetti or otherwise.
