Call of Juarez is a Western-themed first-person shooter from Techland released in 2007. The core experience centers on archery-focused combat, bullet-time quick-draw dueling, and leaning and climbing mechanics supported by interactive physics. Players alternately assume the roles of two antagonists: a sneaking fugitive and his hunter, a reverend with a distinct playstyle built around firearms and preaching. Players describe the game as atmospheric and immersive, highlighting how archery and slow-motion sniping shine, and how the dual-protagonist structure with opposing objectives creates distinct pacing throughout the campaign. The Western revenge story incorporates biblical undertones, with the preacher character delivering scripture during action sequences. Priced at $9.99, it holds a 75% positive rating from over 1,400 Steam reviews, with players calling the setting dark and epic. It is not currently supported on Steam Deck.
