Postal III

Postal III follows the Postal Dude and his pitbull, Champ, as they leave Paradise after the apocalyptic end of the Dude’s week and move to the sister city of Catharsis. They find a city troubled by economic collapse, extremist politics and government corruption. You choose how the Dude responds to its inhabitants and their schemes, from a hypocritical mayor and a cartoon mascot with Al Qaeda ties to an eco-zealot group led by a former vice-president, Segway-riding biker gangs and a cult-leader uncle with nuclear ambitions.

Your choices

You can give in to the Dude’s instincts and fight fire with gasoline, or try to protect the city’s residents from the surrounding chaos. Your behavior determines multiple story paths, and NPCs react to your actions in different ways. You can also choose whether to kill or save film director Uwe Boll.

The city and its cast

Catharsis has large, detailed, interactive environments, and its parody draws on real people, events and philosophies. Celebrity characters include Ron Jeremy, Randy Jones, Uwe Boll and Jennifer Walcott. Characters from other Running With Scissors franchises also appear: Krotchy, Champ and the Postal Babes may fight alongside you or against you.

Weapons and vehicles

The game includes vehicle gameplay and several unconventional tools: the Helper Monkey, Grenade Cats and the BadgerSaw. Its humor is edgy and satirical.
