West of Dead

When a dead man awakens (voiced by Ron Perlman) with only the memory of a figure in black, he sets into motion a chain of events that have truly mythic consequences.”

John Wick Hex

A methodical turn-based strategy based on the characters of the movie and adding an unconnected chapter of the story before the start of the films. Here’s about 20 minutes of gameplay from IGN to give you a feel for what the game is actually like.

I do really like the trailer, and I enjoyed editing it into a shorter loop. However, I’ve come across a number of people that were confused about what type of game it is. So if you are interested in an almost puzzle like John Wick experience then maybe this is for you, just do a little extra review research first. 🙃
