Lead and Gold is set in the American Old West. It features four character classes to choose from, each having their own unique weapons, abilities, and "synergies". This "synergy" is a range-based booster that enhances the abilities of all nearby teammates. The Blaster wields a double barrel shotgun and dynamite sticks and radiates a defensive synergy effect. The Deputy wields a repeater carbine rifle, has the ability to tag enemies for teammates, and radiate a damage increasing synergy effect. The Gunslinger carries a highly accurate revolver, has the ability to rapidly fire his revolver with reduced accuracy, and radiates a synergy effect that increases weapon accuracy. Trappers are equipped with a scoped hunting rifle, carry traps that can immobilize enemies, and radiate a critical hit synergy effect. Players can slowly regenerate health by remaining in proximity to other teammates. Additionally, any player can revive a fallen teammate.
