In this comedy western, you play as Horse Girl. Normally, you'd be riding the open plains, but that sidewinder, Judge Lazarus Dives, stole your horse! He also wants to own every snake oil well in Texas, so he must be here in Santa Diablo. You're certain of it. You're gonna find that buzzard and settle the score.

Content warning: masturbation and dog excrement.
