Fatal Puzzle

Fatal Puzzle was one of those games you'd find in the later days of the Flash era, a straightforward action puzzle title. It didn't try to reinvent the wheel, but it offered a specific kind of challenge that kept you clicking. You played as a bounty hunter, and your job was to clear rooms of gangsters.

You control a cursor, using your mouse to aim and fire at the criminals who appear on screen. Your main objective is to eliminate every target in a stage before they can shoot you or escape. The mechanics involve timing your shots carefully, as some enemies may be shielded or require multiple hits. You also need to manage your positioning, since moving your cursor into the line of fire can get you killed. The pacing is quick, with levels often throwing new enemy types at you without much warning. It feels tense and reactive, a test of your precision under pressure.
