Desperados - Wanted Dead or Alive is the first strategy game ever to combine a movie-based and-story driven atmosphere of an adventure game with the intellectual challenge of a real time tactic game.

Selected Test Results

What works

  • Mouse works on game and it's quite playable.
  • I could play the first and second level.
  • Game speed was great (now it beated AMD K6-2 300MHz computer with Windows 98) with working hud it would be great It was normal speed even with bad guys eyesight visible.

What does not

  • Because of Atari Store activation system I had to use cracked game.exe. Other ways it tells me to have administrator privileges. That probably doesn't affect CD copy.
  • In game menu I have to use arrow buttons because mouse doesn't work. It just wants to be in the middle of the game (I used Wine desktop).
  • Game HUD isn't working. I can click and use it but I can't see it. On down it's just black and left upper corner isn't very usable. Also map isn't working well. Good guys are showing but others are only black rounds and map's background is invisible.
  • Dialogues doesn't have background.
  • Some texts aren't showing correctly. They don't have white center only black rounds.
  • Sound is sometimes lags a bit (if I can say so about sound) usually in dialogues.

Workarounds

What was not tested

Additional Comments

My copy is bought from Atari Store (http://www.atari-store.eu/pc-games/buy-download-Desperados---Wanted-Dead-or-Alive.html). BTW: It was quite a hassle to download it with Linux system (this case it's Ubuntu) but I made it and without Windows programs. I must say that great job Wine developers!
