Sammy Howell died at 89, but she signed a contract to continue on as a digital avatar. She didn't expect it would be the bloodiest wild west game ever.

Sammy Howell was widowed a few years back and threw her everything into being the best grandmother that she could. She buried her sadness and had fun.

Then she was diagnosed with cancer. Death was knocking on her door and the idea of putting her granddaughter, Winifred, through everything the elderly widow had just been through broke her heart.

That's when the salesmen from EveNet knocked on her door and offered something truly remarkable.

When Sammy passed, she would be allowed to continue on as a digital avatar in a game world, downloaded and considered dead by her family, but her avatar could stream games and earn revenue. Revenue that could be put toward helping better her granddaughter's life.

This a dream come true. She could still be there for Winnie, supporting her through life's ups and downs, and Winnie wouldn't need to know and could move on with her own life. Sammy could be her guardian angel.

She just had to pick a game. One game, for 250 levels, than you could change. Those were the rules. What game would she pick?She thought about her husband and the fun they had. Their love of the old classics, like Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, Little House on the Prairie, Bonanza, Gunsmoke. Fun, hokey, old west shows that followed families surviving in the great plains.

That sealed it. She could do this and still keep her husband close to her, at least in spirit.

That's how she found herself in Wicked West.

What Sammy didn't realize was that Wicked West wasn't some hokey and fun old-timey show. Wicked West is a bloody war between players in an wild west setting. Kill or be killed. Survive or...wait an hour and try to survive again.

And if she doesn't start figuring it out soon, she's going to fail in her only promise to herself.... To spend her death helping Winnie.
