Desperados III is another entry in the popular series of tactical strategy games inspired by Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun.
The game continues the story from the previous games. The main protagonist of Desperados III is John Cooper, a gunslinger known from previous entries in the series. He takes command of a group of outlaw specialists. Together with them, he completes the most dangerous missions on the Wild West.
Desperados III remains faithful to the basic principles of previous entries, especially the first game in the series. It is a tactical real-time strategy game in which the players command a group of five specialists. They complete missions on rather small maps. The enemies are usually having great advantage in numbers, so winning requires a stealth approach and cleverness. While the players remain undetected, the enemies are patrolling the maps, and avoiding detection is made easier by the interface that presents the sight range of the guards.
Each member of the squad features a different specialization, unique equipment, and special skills. In addition to the gunslinger Cooper, the players can control, among other characters, a sniper and a woman that can distract guards. The players must learn how to take advantage of the talents of the characters and they must learn how to make the characters cooperate with each other well.
Desperados III offers a great tactical freedom. The missions can be completed quietly, without killing anyone, or by participating in spectacular shootouts. Players can take advantage of gadgets and skills to balance the advantage in numbers of the opponents. Each problem and obstacle can be defeated in various different ways. Because of that, missions can be completed a few times, each time with a different approach and on a different difficulty level.
The events are presented with an isometric camera. The graphics are three-dimensional and they can impress with a high level of details and the atmosphere of western movies.

A series of tactical real-time strategies, launched in 2001 by the game Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive. Behind the development of the first two installments of the series, as well as their informal continuation in the form of the game Helldorado, was the studio Spellbound Entertainment. The full-fledged third installment of the series, on the other hand, was developed by the Mimimi Games team, which previously became famous thanks to its warmly received, genre-related production titled Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. The latter was also the first installment of the series, which appeared not only on personal computers, but also on consoles.

PlayStation LifeStyle: 9 / 10 by Rebecca Smith
The good news is that most players will find something to enjoy in Desperados III. Mimimi Productions has learned from the few mistakes they made with Shadow Tactics to make a real time tactical strategy/stealth blend that works incredibly well on console. There are enough choices and replayability to suit both newcomers and veterans to the genres. The game is a worthwhile addition to your collection.
Game Rant: 4 / 5 by Cameron Corliss
Mimimi Games' Desperados 3 might not look like much on the surface, but it's an incredibly nuanced stealth game with plenty to love.
