    It's hard to stop playing this game. Finally the day has come, when I can say that about Jagged Alliance 3.

    This is a series that predates most tactical strategy we know, but it’s had some bumps along the road. Jagged Alliance 3 can’t be counted among those bumps. It’s a proficient and beautiful return to form for this franchise with a wealth of options inside and outside combat.

    If you don’t mind a high entry threshold, many references to the 80s' popculture, a simple war story and some really dry humor, Jagged Alliance 3 is for you. And if you loved JA2 – don’t even hesitate.

    Jagged Alliance 3 is a versatile strategy RPG, packed with personality and entertainment. You really have an opportunity to overcome tactical problems with your own personalized approach without being forced into playing a certain way. Any hardened SRPG mercenaries looking to take on a challenging but rewarding contract will definitely enjoy spending countless hours delving into the jungles of Gran Chien.

    Although the popular brand stagnated for a long time and several attempts to restore it to its former glory turned out badly, Haemimont Games broke the curse and served us an excellent full-fledged new game. With everything we loved about the first games in the series, plus some practical improvements.

    Jagged Alliance 3 comes almost a quarter of a century after the release of the cult classic second game. It's a really decent sequel, combining old-school gameplay with modern trends. It's just a pity that it will be appreciated primarily by experienced gamers, while newcomers will give up rather quickly.

    This top-tier strategy game loses points for the slurs and racial stereotyping in the writing. The best urban combat in a tactical game in years, but the world feels paper-thin even as the fights impress.

    Jagged Alliance has been out of luck for a long time thanks to games released after the sequel to the original game. Jagged Alliance 2 is theJagged Alliance has been out of luck for a long time thanks to games released after the sequel to the original game. Jagged Alliance 2 is the pinnacle of the series. It seemed that the series was dead, and nothing good would come of it. But a miracle happened, and we finally got a real Jagged Alliance 3, which may not reach the level of JA2, but it's still a good game. Expand

    Unbalanced game. BUT ITS SO ADDICTIVE!!!
    (Workshop fixes almost ALL issues)

    Great Characters/Mercs (it is funny that some are sexist, it proves that the devs still got balls)
    Sound design is not good..
    Map design is pretty good.
    Technically the game looks fine/good but the performance sucks so bad. (i do not really mind playing in 30-50 fps as this is not really necessary in this game)

    many weapons, but the armor does not change the appearance of the characters expect the gasmask.

    pretty big game as you can explore each tile.
    multiple factions (similar to JA2)
