The '''''Westward''''' game franchise is a series of games developed by Sandlot Interactive beginning in 2006. They are based on the idea of the game Virtual Villager and its clones, but they feature a lower emphasis on the population and society aspect with a better focus on resource gathering, town growth and combat. As their title implies, the series is set in the American old west, sometime in the late 1800s, on the west coast. The first two games are directly connected by a running plot, while the third and fourth titles are unrelated but feature cameos.
The fifth game in the series, ''Westward Kingdoms'' abandons the old west theme in favor of a medieval plot. As one would expect with such a genre shift, the plot and characters are unrelated to the previous titles.
Line 14:
The games are primarily released for the PC through digital sale and download, though the first game has seen ports to the iPhone and Windows Mobile platforms and the second game saw a Mac release.
