The Fastest Gun in the West is a card game for 2–3 players.
You are the best of the Wild West’s gunslingers and meet at noon outside the saloon to find out which one of you is the fastest gun in the West. The first one to draw their six-gun wins, and the others are deemed to be as slow as a snail.
The game was designed for BoardGameGeek’s July/August 2026 Bi-Monthly 24 Hour Design Challenge – DRAW.
During the challenge, I made live updates every two hours until everything was ready. The design diary videos are available on YouTube.
