Wagons Ho!

Description

In 1850, gold fever sweeps California, drawing prospectors, adventurers, and opportunists eager for fortune and fame. Charlie Streeter, seasoned from a year in the West, organizes a daring wagon train from St. Joseph, Missouri. Promising quick passage and riches within two months, he insists each traveler provide mules, food, weapons, and the grit to survive. Unlike the slower oxen caravans, Charlie’s mule-driven train aims for speed and stealth, its small size serving as protection against hostile forces.

Yet danger stalks the trail—harsh terrain, limited supplies, and the constant threat of Indian attack. Early in the journey, Charlie’s party encounters another wagon train, weakened by the death of their master. Two wagons, including a dangerous gunfighter who killed the previous leader, join the group, raising tensions. Every choice—route, rest, and defense—matters. Together, you must survive the perilous crossing… or watch dreams of gold end in blood and dust.
