Pick Your Poison
This is it, the only people left alive who know where the gold is buried are you...
...and Tex.
"How's about we leave this one up to fate, pardner...?"
Out-drink Tex in a game of chance! Can you survive drinking from his mysterious bottles? Break Tex's high score and win the gold!
How to Play
- Drink a bottle for a Point! Every bottle has a 1/4 chance of being poisoned...
- If you drink a poison bottle, you'll get a strike- 3 strikes an you're dead!
- Every 10 rounds Tex will offer you what might be the antidote. The odds are 50/50 that it will remove 1 strike and give you 2 points- or instantly kill you.
- Get 50 or more points to win the gold! Or try to beat your personal best!

Tarnation, Tex. Feedin' me that posino after I got 29 bottles down is right dastardly...
That absolute sidewinder...
Fun! Love the animations! Great job! High score of 30 here. :)
I think my best is 20-something, so you've got me beat already!
