Desperados is a 1990 role-playing game published by Skycastle Games. Gameplay Desperados is a roleplaying game set in the Old West. Watson commented that "Overall, Desperados represents an excellent value for someone looking for an Old West roleplaying game. It has its faults: Some people may not like the fact that it does not try to be historically accurate, and others may not feel secure without several books full of rules to refer to. For the rest of us, however, Desperados provides a fast-paced, lighthearted game at a reasonable price."<ref name="SG"/>
