The Desperados series has been absent from the Mac for a long time, and if this is your first look at the Wild West tactical stealth game, then you’re in for a treat. Desperados III is a rich, satisfying game that repays your patience and planning with handsome rewards.

If you’ve ever played the likes of Shadow Tactics or Commandos, you know how Desperados III works. The game is divided into large set pieces, enclosed areas crawling with hostile enemies who won’t hesitate to shoot you on sight. Using stealth and cunning, you must avoid capture and eliminate your targets.

It sounds simple enough, but the art is in the execution — charge in all guns blazing and you’re sure to meet a swift end; cause too much noise and the guards will come looking for you; leave a body in plain sight and your foes will raise the alarm.
