CyberCowboys

CYBER COWBOYS is an idle Western RPG that runs on a simulated retro desktop operating system. Create your cowboy, step into the lawless frontier, and build your legacy — one bullet, one bounty, and one bar fight at a time.

Set on a glitchy Windows 98-style desktop complete with draggable windows, a start menu, and a taskbar, Cyber Cowboys blends the nostalgia of retro computing with the grit of the Wild West. Every feature lives inside its own desktop app — combat, crafting, the saloon, the stables, even your homestead.

Features:

IDLE COMBAT WITH AUTO-FIGHT

Let your cowboy shoot it out automatically while you tend to other business. Seven tiers of enemies from petty drunks to legendary gunslingers. Blunderbuss misfires, critical hits, and the ever-present 1% chance of catching a bullet and dying — the frontier is unforgiving.

PVP DUELING

Challenge rival cowboys to coin-flip duels. Winner takes gold, loser eats dirt. Stack your buffs, pray to whatever god you believe in, and pull the trigger.

CRAFTING & GATHERING

Mine ore, chop wood, gather hides. Forge weapons and armor at the anvil. Salvage gear by rarity. Every piece of equipment matters when a outlaw is aiming at your head.

WANTED POSTER BOUNTY HUNTS

Track down wanted criminals and collect bounties. The higher the reward, the meaner the target.

POSSE (GUILD) SYSTEM

Join a posse with friends. Take on world bosses together. Wage posse wars against rival gangs. Coordinate in posse chat and dominate the frontier.

WORLD BOSSES

Server-wide bosses with server-authoritative damage tracking. Everyone contributes. Everyone gets a cut of the loot.

MOUNTS & COSMETICS

Tame horses and ride across the plains. Customize your cowboy with cosmetics, badges, and supporter perks.

PLAYER HOUSING

Build your homestead. Buy houses, shacks, and premium estates. Put down roots in a town that wants you dead.

PRESTIGE / REMORT SYSTEM

When you've peaked, remort your cowboy to reset progress in exchange for permanent prestige upgrades. The grind never ends — it just gets meaner.

ACTIVE SALOON CHAT

Real-time multiplayer chat in the saloon. Talk shit, trade tips, form posses, and talk smack to the marshal. Timestamps, mention flashes, DMs — everything you need to stay connected.

RETRO DESKTOP THEMES

Switch between multiple desktop themes — 15 themes to choose from ranging from windows 98 to several new linux distro themes. Each theme changes the entire look and feel of the game, not just colors but layout, fonts, window borders, and taskbar position.

ACHIEVEMENTS

Expandable achievement chains that reward long-term play. From your first bar fight to becoming a legend of the frontier.

FREE TO PLAY

No paywalls. No pay-to-win. The frontier is free for everyone.
