Description

Shootout is part of the Shooting Gallery add-on for the Odyssey. It requires the supplied rifle accessory, and game card number 9.

One player is the Sheriff and gets to use the rifle, while the second player controls the Dalton Gang, and has to move the light dot on the screen through the wild west scenery depicted on the overlay. At every doorway and window the second player passes, they have to stop for as long as it takes them to say "You'll never get me, Sheriff!" before they can move on. This gives the other player time to aim for the gang and shoot. Once the gang has reached the end of the path, the two players switch roles and declare the winner whoever scores more hits.
