Fans of the 2011 film Cowboys & Aliens, which starred Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig, might enjoy Synergy Blue’s latest interactive slots game. Area 50 Fun, an arcade-style shooting game featuring players protecting an old Western town from alien outlaws, is being released today.

“It’s the perfect blend of gaming and gambling,” said Amanda Vance, Synergy Blue CEO, in a statement. “(It gives) operators something different to market while providing players with a new, exciting way to gamble.”

Vance was named CEO of Synergy Blue early in March.
