one of my favorite games. unlimited replay value, so many good mods, punishing but ultimately fair difficulty (i would advise you to read a walkthrough for your first playthrough), great story, funny as fuck characters except livewire she is so goddamn annoying, works perfectly under linux i could go on. i think the greatest compliment i can give a game is when i'm unable to put it down after i start playing, like i can grind this shit for 12 hours straight without getting bored and i have adhd lol. utter masterpiece and the first TBT game i fell in love with, excellent introduction to the genre despite its difficulty, again read a guide also install QoL mods. i'm using: show chance to hit (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2993428346) audaki's UI enhancements (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3159404303) pause for mines (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3048450835) no stealth vignette (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3048788234) interface tweaks (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3274998887) and less intrusive healthbars (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3277519019) another note, if you are on linux with an NVIDIA gpu you have to disable SSR otherwise the game hangs/crashes at launch. protondb page which outlines the tweak: https://www.protondb.com/app/1084160

I play a lot of games, and surprising to me, Jagged Alliance 3 is one of the ones I feel fondest about. While the characters are pretty comedic and out there, they end up quite endearing and the game on a whole actually has a lot of heart. There are so many things I can gush about. Firstly, Grand Chien is beautiful, the graphics are great and each locale is unique and thought out. Music is also fantastic and really creates this unique tropical adventure vibe. Honestly, I'd get a big smile every time I pull up the loading screen. The mercs and skills are unique and well thought out. It's really interesting on a strategic level to assemble your teams based on their skills, personalities, and even relationships (some get buffs/debuffs if they're on the same squad). And then the banter is also hilarious and depends on who's in your squad. On top of that, the strategic game is actually very good. I played a ton of X-com 2, and while it's not the same, it's really enjoyable in its own way with a mix of real-time exploration and then turn-based combat. The story is great, the side stories are also fun and interesting, there are a ton of unique and memorable characters. It really felt like a well thought out world. And there's quite a few optional side missions, or events that can have different outcomes that warrant follow up playthroughs. I think the only negatives for me are that the inventory management is a bit painful at times (mods can help!), especially if you need to move goods across the map. Trying to optimize movement logistics turned out to be a lot of work. but critical for intercepting enemy troops or getting to places in time. And second, there's a lot of hidden mechanics that aren't talked about anywhere that make a huge difference, for example how Leadership drastically effects movement speed, or how Merc Training and related Perks work (which can make a HUGE difference as well). You can definitely go in blind and enjoy the game without worrying much about it. But if you want to challenge yourself with harder difficulties, all these optimizations become critical. Lastly, I really wish the game had some DLC with campaigns as I'd love to pop back into the game and love the story-telling they did. I think there's so much they could do with new mercs and stories as the base game is super solid. While the main campaign is actually quite long, the replayability is limited to trying out new mercs and doing things I missed the first time. So all-in-all, a super recommend for me. Get it, sink into the world of Grand Chien and your band of mercs and have hours of fun =)

🧪 FIELD REPORT: Jagged Alliance 3 Agent: MRChanutty | Playtime: 72 hrs | Difficulty: Normal ... Day 1 – Had no idea what this was. Saw “Tactical Turn-Based + Military” — instant buy. Day 2 – First run: “Why can’t I hit anyone in this game?” Missed 90% shots like a stormtrooper. Day 3 – Dropped it for a bit. Felt clunky. Something didn’t click. Day 4 – Gave it a proper second try. Then realized I forgot to create my own custom A.I.M. merc. Oops. Day 5 – Read beginner guides. Third run began. This time with a custom sniper-leader build. Clean. Day 6 – Reached the main island. Things opened up. Decisions actually mattered. Loved it. Day 7 – I’m a perfectionist. Saved every 5 minutes. One wrong call 3 missions ago? Reload city. Day 14 – Surprises everywhere. Couldn’t resist — looked up spoilers. Regret nothing. Day 15 – Running 3 merc teams across the world map. Some free, some premium. Felt like a private military CEO. Day 20 – Ready for the big twist. Main quest kicks off. Day 21 – Full map clear. Not a single enemy left. Every squad prepped, every weapon modded. Day 24 – Final mission. Grew attached to every merc. From rookies to gods. Felt like watching my kids grow up. Day 25 – Game completed. Sat there listening to every goodbye line. Didn’t expect that. 🧠 LIFE FIT INSIGHT A true tactical sandbox. From hiring quirky mercs to managing world map zones, this game shines in depth and personality. You’ll mess up. A lot. But that’s the charm — and reading spoilers doesn’t ruin it; it sharpens it. By the end, it’s not about missions — it’s about watching your weird, dysfunctional squad become legends. Absolutely recommended — but only if you’re ready to feel.

I’ve only put a short amount of time into Jagged Alliance 3 so far, but I’m already hooked. It’s like XCOM—but without the aliens—and loaded with that offbeat 80s/90s humor you’d expect from something like The A-Team. The characters are full of personality, and the game doesn’t take itself too seriously, which honestly feels refreshing. The gameplay is surprisingly easy to pick up, especially if you’re an older gamer like me who remembers when tactical games didn’t require a PhD to understand. It strikes that perfect balance of old-school design with just enough modern polish. The graphics are solid—not over-the-top, but exactly what a game like this needs, and it runs great even without top-tier hardware. What really stands out is the replay value. With so many mercenaries and playstyle options, I can already tell I’ll be coming back for multiple runs. And right now, it’s on sale for $22 on Steam—an absolute steal for the quality and content you get. If you grew up on strategy games or just miss the charm of gaming from the 80s and 90s, Jagged Alliance 3 is a must-play. It’s a love letter to a different era, and it nails the landing.

Jagged Alliance has always been a unique tactical strategy game with its own distinctive mechanics and style. As a kid, I couldn’t really appreciate this masterpiece (mainly due to a lack of brainpower) , but I’ve finally gotten my hands on the “fresh” installment of the series. Right from the start, I had a sense of deja vu—the game initially felt complex and unwelcoming. I guess I’ve gotten used to modern games guiding you step-by-step through all the mechanics. Here, you’re given just a few basic text hints. It was funny to see a “tip” pop up at hour 19 of my play through. Still, once I got through the prologue and figured out (or so I thought) the game’s core systems, the learning phase smoothly turned into a planning and conquest phase. In terms of gameplay mechanics, it really reminded me of Silent Storm, a game I spent a lot of time with and used to consider one of the most well-designed and engaging tactics titles. This game even has destructible environments! Not fully destructible, of course, but I was thrilled when an RPG blast knocked down a house wall. I thought that kind of tech was long gone—but apparently not! Interestingly, there’s no visible hit percentage when shooting at enemies, so you’re basically firing “by feel.” At first, I didn’t like that system (and yes, you can change it with a mod) , but eventually I got used to it and actually started to enjoy it—it makes the game feel more realistic (though I did resort to save-scumming now and then) . Around hour 30, defending and capturing territories started to feel a bit repetitive, and I thought I was done with the game. But the next morning, like an addict, I was booting it up again, ready to wipe out more bad guys. And I think that says a lot—the core mechanics work so well that you just don’t get tired of playing. Combat alone isn’t enough—you also need to study the map, prep your squad, manage weapons and ammo, and most importantly, keep your finances in check. It may sound like a grind from the outside, but these layers actually make the experience more engaging and push you to think strategically. I never expected to enjoy spending so much time on the world map. The mission maps almost always have something interesting—a unique location or character. At first, I was skipping the dialogue, thinking this was just a mercenary conquest game. But once I started paying attention, I realised I was missing out on a surprisingly well-written and often funny story. Even though dialogue is presented through static character portraits, the voice acting is excellent and adds a lot of immersion. The quests, while often classic “fetch this, do that” types, are surprisingly creative and sometimes even interconnected. You rarely see that level of design anymore, even in AAA titles. The lack of obvious quest markers actually makes things more fun—you have to think a bit and interact with the world yourself. There’s also a lot of well-done, tongue-in-cheek humour and references. Surprisingly, the dialogue system feels fully fleshed out and offers meaningful variations, though I’m not entirely sure how much they affect gameplay. At some point, I thought nothing could stop me… but after a certain story twist, my squads got completely overwhelmed. I fought for several days trying to hold my ground, desperately trying to keep my mercs alive, but the enemy forces just kept coming—and eventually I hit a wall. And that’s where my playthrough pretty much ended. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to recover from the mistakes I made in earlier parts of the game… but it doesn’t change the fact that this is an outstanding tactical turn-based strategy game.
