Saving and reloading is encouraged in fact, you can set a reminder to appear if you haven’t saved recently. Desperados III is very good at walking the line between frustrating and rewarding, presenting you with many different paths and obstacles, and just as many ways to surmount them.

Desperados III looks and plays beautifully.
