Space Marshals 3 – Action Game Review
Space Marshals 3 is a Action/Adventure game from Pixelbite, first launched in 4th November 2020.
It’s rated 12+ and currently has 721+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Space Marshals 3 Stand Out
Join the rowdy Space Marshal crew on their latest misadventure in outer space. Strap those boots on, gear up and get ready to hunt space crooks!
This is a story driven action game with an emphasis on stealth and tactical combat. It continues the quirky story from the prequels, but you don't need any previous knowledge to enjoy this one.
TRY BEFORE BUY
Try the first couple of levels out for free before you decide if this is for you. We're a small indie studio developing this game and we'll have to release it one chapter at the time. Each chapter will be sold separately, but there won't be any other in-app purchases. We hope you'll enjoy the game!
TACTICAL COMBAT
Use the environment to your advantage. Avoid attacks by taking cover. Flank enemies for extra efficiency, but avoid getting flanked yourself! Use the tools of the trade to gain an edge – distractions, smoke grenades, flash bangs, traps and much more…
STEALTH
Choose your approach carefully. Some say running into the fray, guns blazing, isn’t always the answer. Use distractions to single out opponents. Use stealth take-downs and silenced weapons to covertly reduce the enemy numbers. Hack gun turrets to turn on their masters. Lure different enemy factions together and let them fight each other.
LOAD-OUT & GEAR
Choosing your load-out is a big part of your tactics. In addition to body armor and grenades you can carry one two-handed and one single-handed weapon – and there’s something for everyone. Big ones, small ones, loud ones, silenced ones, beaming ones, bouncy ones and more.
This Action game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Ive finished all three in this series and they remain our #1 go-to for time killing fun. We can only hope they continue the series with the Marshall or perhaps a spinoff off the same style. IPad controls are smooth, content is both amusing and engaging, and its a perfect balance of challenging and achievable. Great job! Still checking almost daily for another chapter.
How is it that it took us this long to find this cool little stealth shooter? We wish there were more f2p games like this (there is Cypher, the 007 game).
This game is amazing. Buy it you wont regret it.
The game is great.and amazing but the only think we would ask for is a update to customize the joy stick size,to make them bigger or smaller. But aside from that the game runs smoothly and we definitely enjoyed the series so far and we cant wait to see what the 4th game will be like if you guys create it.
We downloaded lots of games on our phone. Still this is the best game- played all versions. Please make more soon.
Its a fun experience worth the cost! Crossing our fingers that they will make a Avas story like in 2.
Huge fan of this series, this game is so underrated! Really hope they wont discontinue this series.
You guys did it again when are you gonna come out with a new one like Space Marshals 4.
Space Marshall 3 lives up to the expectations and more. Stunning graphics, gameplay and tactics than ever before. Loved 1 and 2 but this is even better! Gear balances, hard mode, new enemies, and bounty hunter battles. Love that there are no other purchases so we just buy the full game. The initial bounty levels and starting levels of Chapter 1 are really captivating, we couldnt resist from purchasing the game. Thanks devs! We usually dont buy games at all but this is definitely worth it.
Developers continue to bring awesome levels in the series. Ill keep buying so long as they keep making them. More DLCs please.
What an amazing series. We hope they keep it going.
Miniclip just took ur game and shoved a million ads into it lol.
Ive played the full extent of the second game, thats another great game you should definitely play, but this one is even better. The characters and lines are funny and well thought out. Space and western theme work pretty well. And the game play is incredible and very fun in any place style. We recommend either mainly stealth, or mainly offense. Our only concerns is that the full game costs a good amount. They are very replayable, its still a little expensive. Our final concern is that they will not make another one! Please do make another one, we love the series and we love the characters.
All the negative reviews we read totally missed the point. People complain that you are restricted on overpowered gear if you want to complete missions for perfect score but you only have to do that once. On replay you can use whatever you want. And the gear score cap is perfectly reasonable to keep missions challenging. You can still use plenty of powerful gear under the cap. It forces you to be creative and tailor gear to the mission not just mow down everything effortlessly. Same for the sneaking. Stealth is obviously important when youre one man vs an army. Its much more thrilling to win through precision than brute force. You are a detective after all. Overall, though Ill admit its a bit pricey to unlock all content compared to previous installments, the quality is definitely worth it. The visuals are stunning, the missions are unique and challenging without being impossible, the storyline is immersive, and you really grow to love some of the characters. The game is fundamentally simple yet surprisingly complex at times if you want to be a completionist. It was obviously playtested well. Ive not encountered any major bugs yet. Highly recommend for people who want to easily spend 2-4 weeks on a single mobile rpg.
We have been loving this series, honestly a little addicted. Its a fun story, great gameplay and replay ability with good incentives and rewards. Fun and diverse play style with option between two guns and two throwables(explosives and support). Each version, Space Marshals 1, 2, and 3 have nice shifts and improvements. 1 already being strong. 2 with stealth take downs, Ava storyline, and the vending machine. Three with improving stealth takedowns and stealth function overall, improved vending machine and adding stores, adding bounties, reorganizing level selection, and hard mode. We would love to see an Ava story line added for three as well. Our only complaint so far is that in 3 there is no way(we can currently tell) to see which level we achieved max level on or if we bought the gear from the store. So we are having to play every level over again getting 5 stars to find the one we did not get 5 stars on. It would be nice to have the percentage meter from 1 & 2 to be carried over into 3. That said we do like the level layout more over the planet option before. The planet option was cool idea but challenging to find what level we were looking for. 3s level selection is much improved just needs a percentage meter. Thanks! Looking forward to 4! Ps: the price is worth it but please keep it affordable and more in the $3 range per levels like the bounty and Ava pack. Thanks.
We have had this game for less than a day and normally we wouldnt judge a game in that time. However the first level was quick and the bounties are too hard if you use the equipment from the first level. So the main thing is you have to buy the other chapters and we have a rule for ourselves dont spend money on mobile games. If the dev is reading this please just make the entire game pay or entirely free nobody likes in app purchases you just feel like its pay to win.
$5 for the first chapter thats horrendous.
To the developers. No sound on iPhone 8 with iOS 16.7.10 BUT we get sound with Bluetooth. So the sound works ONLY with Bluetooth. No sound whatsoever WITHOUT Bluetooth. Ive played many many games with our IPhone 8 without using the Bluetooth and they all work! Its only your game! Not sure if the other Space Marshal games are doing the same thing so please look into this and fix the SOUND ISSUE. If you can fix it then we will change our review to 5 stars but for now it stays at only 3.
We have played Space Marshall 1, 2, and 3. This Space Marshall 3 has better graphics, more new weapons, and more big maps. However, after purchasing the game, you have to pay extra to unlock all the chapters which we don't like. Also, some of the maps are impossible to get perfect.
First two chapters fun for awhile. Lots of repeating. No idea why chapter 3 would be considered fun by anyone.Inexplicable how much repeating is involved after every fail. Got bored doing same thing over and over. Great mechanics and so forth. Each chapter has one level thats inexplicably terrible compared to the rest of the game. If you miss Frogger and the western shootout game Marty McFly played; there some homages to them in the middle levels. But they are just stupid.
Bought it for our 13yo daughter. She loved the first 2 games. Way too hard for her. Wish we could get our money back.
We love this game we have played and completed the space marshals series so far but one small issue rather than making us pay for each new chapter just make it like that last two games and make it so you just have to pay for the game that way we dont have to spend more and more money as it goes on.
The only reason we gave it a 2 star was because its dumb how you have to buy every mission unlike in the older games.
Bru so you say the game is free right no we did the prolage and now we have to pay to play the GAME.
Por favor agregar a la descripcin qu hay que comprar los captulos.
This game is cool but can you put something like that original game had because when we deleted it and reinstalled it it didnt save all our progress can you please put that in please.
Im surpised this isnt on PC. The great atmosphere, funny characters, dynamic and fun gameplay. Even chapter 1 has lots of content. The bounty hunts are sweet too. Please keep adding to it. Great job – from the maker of Special Tactics.
Love this game and always excited when theres more content.
We just got a brand new iPad Pro (iOS 15.3.1) a week ago & downloaded this game almost immediately. We had no issues downloading version 3.0.8 & looked forward to playing it. We havent actually had a chance to play yet, so we will update this review soon. Our issue is with the new update (3.1.2), which we have tried downloading a few times. It either doesnt start, or takes so long that we run out of time & have to stop it to move on to something else. We have finally gotten some free time from our busy life & have started another attempt, & we are now 20 minutes into the process & it is still only about 25% done! Is this normal? Whats going on? We have loved Pixelbite & especially this series for a long time. The first & second games were excellent, & we look forward to trying this one out if this download will ever let us.
Love the first 2, didnt know there was going to be a third, nice surprise. We would definitely recommend to just about anyone, we wish all games came with an upfront price, rather than ripping you off indefinitely. Good stuff.
This is a no brainer. Its a phenomenal game. The dialogue definitely isnt as good as one or two and we miss timed missions but we have zero regrets spending our money on this game. Thank you to the developers for your hard work. Some upgrades in additional missions and immersion. Theres a point where a ship flies under a bridge and it feels incredible.
We just started playing this game, and we love the gameplay style. The stealth is really well done, and the weapons are super cool. We love using only shotguns and sneaking up on people to blast them in the back point-blank. Overall, worth the money. Try to get all rewards from each level! We learned how to do levels in half of how long it took us the first time by replaying them.
Long time player since the 1st one and the game just keeps getting better, it has that feel of the Metal Gear games with the hiding and ambush sense of play, but in a much better and easier way to understand and play it. Any type of gamer we think would like this game series, Im very happy that we took the chance and purchased it! Thank you developers for creating such a good game that has brought us lots of fun out of playing it.
Just saw a new chapter had come out, but its chapter 3, not two! Im behind, and cant figure out how to unlock 2.
Honestly its really good the game but that they trick u with the tutorial and stuff and u gotta actually pay for the real game but honestly the gameplay and everything else is good.
Always been a fan of the series; if you liked the first two, youll like this. And we like the chapter by chapter releases thing they have going on. One thing Id like to offer as a suggestion is that the max gear requirements for missions are both good and not so good. While they certainly offer a challenge (and we do mean challenge), it felt like it was becoming a chore in the later levels. We would prefer that the max gear scores be used in some levels rather than all; again, we do enjoy the challenge. Hopefully the max score will go up a little in the coming chapters, if they continue to be every level. Summary: 10/10 bananas, cool hard bit but gets a little tedious later on. Another thing: we know next to nothing about producing games, but we would pay a substantial amount for this if it were on console.
We have enjoyed all the Space Marshal games but despite the slightly high price this is the best one yet. At first we were skeptical of the gear limit system, but it turned out to be a lot of fun and encouraged us to find more elegant solutions to some levels. Overall the artwork if beautiful and the levels are challenging and have good variety. One minor note is that the order of the levels is occasionally head-scratching with relatively easy levels sometimes following super hard ones. If you want an extra challenge try playing all the levels with gear score of zero. We found all levels in chapters 1 and 2 were possible with gear score zero, although some took a considerable amount of planning or multiple attempts. (we found we needed one item that is only available after completing a higher level.) The levels in the bounty pack were also all doable with gear score zero and hard mode in both action and stealth modes, with the exception of one level we could see no way to complete in this fashion in action mode.
The chapter 3 is coming too slow, ive been waiting for half a year.
We needs new part please we love this game.
This game just hits different we played the games before it but we forgot the name of the series for a long time and now we find it because it won a rightfully deserved award bro this brings back memories.
Space Marshals 3 is a real challenge, and we like it! So far, with chapters 1 & 2, the gameplay has been spot on with our iPad Pro. Now, with this new Bounties pack, theres even more variation to an already enjoyable game. We look forward to more Chapters and more Bounties. We dont mind paying for the additional content as the devs release them, when its this fun and challenging. We were hoping for some holiday themed stuff this December (get Burton in a Santa suit, perhaps, and sneaking out with presents stolen by the enemy from the townspeople). Thanks, devs, for keeping the content coming. We look forward to more in the future.
Mostly, this new Space Marshals game is with acclaimed, detailed improvements: 1 Enemies are stronger and smarter. Some enemies can heal their teammates now. Some enemies are of higher mobility and harder to be knocked down from behind. In some levels of chapter 2, no weapons can ensure you to combat with enemies easily, cause therere lot of turrets and fire snipers. You wont acquire magnum gun, minigun or the 5-star diopt charger in Marshals 2 even if youve finished the chapter 2, so turrets cant be neutralized within a second, while fire sniper can lessen your HP directly. On the other hand, we roughly felt that enemies can hear further noise, and they persevere to search longer then ever. All these are telling you one thing: you wont breeze through any level! As for players loving infiltration, ones probably cost much time to plan. You do need to infiltrate silently much more than ever, let alone at the beginning of the game. 2 HARD MORE AVAILABLE. LITERALLY. You cant refill your bullets and health with boxes or dispensers, so most of the time you must choose your infiltration route more and use your bullets providently. 3 The story is still intelligible, Ill keep waiting for chapter 3. 4 Bounty missions available. Great DLC training your patience or infiltration ability. 5 Like what above mentioned, we strongly feel that great weapons are fewer. Now diopt charger is just a 4-star sniper that can bypass shields and enemies, however mostly its DPS cant deal with several enemies unless you induct them to catch you in a procession. Your armor cant let you camouflage. We do enjoy our self planning infiltrations through every chapter, but we also want to get reward easier after we finished each chapter. Hoping that youll launch the chapter 3 as early as possible. And if practicable, please launch at a lower price. :) Plus, the in-game frame is unstable. Improvements are needed.
Ive played the two previous game and this was a good continuation of levels and gameplay that we enjoyed, however the gui was a bit small and was hard to use on our phone. Maybe include a setting to adjust its size.
First of all, we are a huge fan of this series as we finished the first two games from start to finish 100%.(Even for the ava dlc for sm2) However as we all know the prices went up for the full game and tbh at first we thought it was justified as the games visuals looked better and it looked more polished than before. However after playing through the game(chapter 1 and 2), especially on chapter 2, we remember playing 3 throwaway missions that even takes place in a map that looks identical with just some different layout where your objective is to just simply take out the enemies. Now Im not going to say every single missions on the first two games were perfect what so ever but if youre charging more money for the game you should at least put more effort into the missions and design. Plus some of the missions are way too short with small maps. However overall we did have a good time playing the game just not the level of enjoyment we had in the first two games. Ive seen a lot of people hating on the gear limit system but we personally think it was a nice system added to the game as removing op weapons on the game made it more balanced in a way. Now if sm4 comes out in the future we wish you bring back the old transaction as being a 1 time purchase for the full game(and additional for dlc content) thank you.
U get one mission then have to buy them all.
The game is too short lived but if you buy the chapter 1 and 2 it extends it but make it free please.
Game never downloads, Ive tried multiple times over WiFi and cell data. It starts like normal and just never progresses.
You play a little but then to have more fun you have to pay IT NOT A FREE TOO PLAY IF YOU HAVE TO PAY TO PLAY IT DO SOME LIKE GET THE LEVEL TO THE VERY TOP TO LIKE PLAY THE NEXT LEVEL SO PLAY DO THIS we LIKE THE GAME PLAY BUT NOT TO PAY FOR IT we LIKE WILL PLAY A DATING GAME THEN PAY FOR THIS GAME.
In this game you only get 1 level to play and then you have to pay 10$ just to get the rest idk if the 5 star guys are bots or just payed but just make the game cost money instead of making people pay 30$ just for all of the levels.
