Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist is a humourous adventure game set in the wild west. The game follows Freddy Pharkas, a gunslinger who enrolled in a school of pharmacology after losing his ear in a showdown. Attempting to leave his past behind him, Freddy moves to the town of Coarsegold with the dream of starting his own pharmacy. Business is good for a while, until the townsfolk are run out of town and businesses are foreclosed and shut down for good. Now Freddy has to deal with his shame over his past, and find out who is behind the terrorizing of Coarsegold before his business joins the others in foreclosure.


Simultaneous speech and subtitles

In ScummVM, it is possible to enjoy a combined mode, where both speech and text are shown at the same time.

There is no in-game option to toggle speech and text. Only ScummVM's audio options can be used to toggle this feature. Note that some spoken dialog is missing from the game texts.
