Set in 2039, Westboro imagines a world where toxic contamination has made most water unusable, while a powerful corporation controls the remaining fresh-water resources. Against this crisis, violent uprisings spread and the world nears a state of emergency. The premise frames the game’s conflict around scarcity and social upheaval rather than a conventional fantasy setting.
Westboro combines point-and-click play with action-RPG combat in real time. Players can use varied weapons and abilities, choosing between stealth and direct attacks, or keeping enemies at range versus drawing them into close combat. Armor offers one approach to survival; staying quick and out of danger offers another. This mix of tactical choices and immediate fighting gives the game its stated easy-to-play, hard-to-master character.
The store categorizes Westboro as single-player, so its play format is a solo campaign rather than a shared multiplayer session.
