About the Cowboys What's Missing? Game
A picture-recall challenge based on the classic parlour game. Study a board of pictures for a few seconds, then one quietly disappears — can you say which? Rounds get bigger and faster as you go, and three wrong answers ends the run.
Ten-gallon hats, sheriff stars, horseshoes and cacti — mosey on in to our Wild West memory game.
How to Play
- Press Start and memorise every picture on the board.
- After a few seconds the board hides and one picture is removed.
- Pick the missing picture from the answer choices.
- Each correct answer adds a bigger board. Three misses ends the game.
