I was recently trying to recall all of the arcade games that cycled through the various arcades in my local area when I was a kid, and there is one that I'm sure I remember, but I can't remember its name.
These details are going to be very vague and sketchy because I only played this game once or twice, so I'll be surprised if anybody can name it, but here goes.
It was at least 2-player simultaneous. It was kind of a beat-em-up type game. It would have been late 80's, *maybe* early 90's. The graphics were a very primitive "pre-rendered sprite" style. I'm pretty sure it was set in the Wild West, but I might be confusing that with an "Indian Jones" type theme (I know the characters wore hats). I can't even recall if you could pick up guns or not, but I know for a fact you could pick up a whip as a weapon.
I know it was not Sunset Riders or Gun.Smoke. Sorry for the sparse details, but any ideas?

Maybe Growl? its a "Indiana Jones" style game, it has a whip in the game.

My guess is Iron Horse (http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8206)

BINGO! That's the one. Checked YouTube, and as soon as I saw all of the crates and barrels being smashed, I knew we had a winner.
Thanks, I never in a million years would have come up with that answer on my own.
