The game takes players on a journey to the old Wild West where they join friends and saddle up for an epic adventure, exploring the open frontier while fighting the hostile takeover plans of notorious oil tycoon, Orville Driller. Along the way, players will build their own outposts, collect cards to summon allies and encounter a wide range of characters, each with their own, unique personalities in their mission to save the Wild West.To support the global release of Compass Point: WestNext Games collaborated with premium content producer IDW Publishing to create an original comic to expand on the game’s story.
