==Gameplay==
Each player must use a lasso to reel in barrels from the spinning wheel, adding the numbers marked on them to their score; the numbers are 5, 10, 30, and 50. A player must twirl their lasso enough to make it glow so they can throw it. The player with more points after 20 seconds wins. The game ends in a tie if both players' scores are the same.
The [[player]]s' goal is to get more points than their opponent by lassoing in [[barrel]]s with numbers marked on them. The numbers are 5, 10, 20, 30, and 50. The catch is that the barrels are on spinning wheels, and the barrel that the player lassos in is almost completely random. Whoever has the most points by the time the time limit runs out wins.
