Ready to face a challenge? Good! As the updated version of Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive is now on GOG.
As a reminder, the updated release from THQ Nordic doesn't just add Linux support. It also adds language support for French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian and English to the main game. It also adds in the lost demo level, with more limited language support.
As usual, the Linux release on GOG has gone through their internal testing (as they always do) and comes packaged with their handy MojoSetup-based installer.
- Based on the successful tactical combat mechanics from the Commandos series with an even more challenging difficulty level
- A great atmosphere straight out of classic Westerns with beautiful hand-drawn levels
- A wide variety of scenarios and an impressive number of ways to accomplish each assignment
GOG actually sent us a copy of it and I can confirm it does work really damn nicely. As someone who never got to play it originally, I am especially appreciative of the work THQ Nordic do to update old titles.
Find it on GOG here where it's also on sale for super cheap!

Setting was nice, story was nice, Graphics in the first part were nice back then.
No comment about the botched 3d attempt in the 2 other parts of the series ;)
Quoting: tpauJust get to a corner, shoot till the level is clear. Thank John Cooper and a a few navigation issues of the enemies.I don't think that the stealth genre is something for you ;) Where's the fun in that?
Quoting: bekoIt can be fun to do a game totally different than it was intended. It is also a challenge to not get shot yourself or pull too many enemies at once :)Quoting: tpauJust get to a corner, shoot till the level is clear.

It is also fun to try and not kill any enemy at all in Robin Hood (although that is not possible due to game mechanics)
