The Lasso. Swing across canyons, or yank bandits out of cover.
A dark mine lit only by the cowboy's lantern as a ghoul closes in
The Bullseye Lantern. The deep mine is pitch black, and the ghouls like it that way.

The Foreman. Something at the bottom of the mine is still working.

No sword. Just the kit.

Six-Shooter

Eight-way aim and ricochets off stone. Stand still to steady your shot, or kneel behind cover for more.

Boot Kick

Barely hurts, but it sends ghouls, barrels, and lit dynamite flying, ideally into a pit.

Lasso

Swing over canyons to hitching posts. Pull barrels, ghouls, and bandits to your feet.

Bullseye Lantern

Light the dark, swing fire at braziers, and set oil trails burning.

Prospecting Pick

A slow, heavy blow that breaks cracked rock and bone armor.

Eleven rooms

The desert, a canyon, the sealed mine, and its dark depths. Each tool gets its own puzzles.
