Game Play

On each stage, Buster Badshot will encounter many perils and be attacked by a variety of enemies as he travels. You must shoot any attacker or object that will harm him. Objects that are shot or thrown include bullets, knives, arrows, shovels, cannonballs and bombs. The wild animals that attack include coyotes, bats, buffalos, wildcats, beavers, bears, wolves, skunks, raccoons, birds and rats. Other perils include ghosts, falling boulders, floating twigs and runaway mining cars.

The gangs of outlaws are comprised of cowboys, women, Indians, hillbillies, Mexican bandidos or various mixtures of these. The sizes of the gangs range in size from two to four members and each carries a unique name like "The Petticoat Floozies" (Slu Foot Sue, Elvira and Lotta Love), "The Dalton Gang" (Big John Dalton and Emmet Dalton), "The Apache Braves" (Buffalo Breath, Running Bull, Geronimo and Running Nose), "The Banditos" (Lu Ren, Pancho Mancho and Cisco Disco), "The Pawnee Tribe" (Crazy Horse, Falling Rock, Flying Arrow and Bloody Hawk) and so on. Gang members are different from the other characters on the screen since their colors flash, but each must be shot (captured) in order to complete the stage. After the entire gang is captured, the stage's introductory screen will be shown again with iron bars being placed over the wanted poster of each outlaw while the red word "Paid" is stamped over the reward on each wanted poster. From here, you return to the main screen containing the pictures of the remaining stages.

The rewards for captured outlaws starts at $100, goes to $250 and then increases by $250 ($100, $250, $500, $750, $1000 ...). In the mine stages, shoot the dynamite in the wall for $5000. Between stages, if you shoot the picture that says "Deposit Gold", the bounty you've earned will be multiplied by the number of levels you've completed and then added to your score. The longer you wait to cash in your gold, the larger your bonus will be. Bonus Busters are awarded at various point levels throughout the game.

Miscellaneous

VAPS Arcade Census

Common - There are 28 known instances of Cheyenne owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 20 of them are original dedicated machines, it is a conversion in which game circuit boards (and possibly cabinet graphics) have been placed in (and on) another game cabinet, and 7 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Of the 57,098 video games (3,420 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 14 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records.

For Sale - There are 2 VAPS members with Cheyenne machines for sale. There are 2 VAPS members with extra Cheyenne circuit boards for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.
