About The Sniper

You control a sniper's view through a scope. The gameplay is a cycle of scanning and firing. You start on a zoomed-out map, clicking to move your view to a new area. Then you zoom in, panning carefully across buildings and windows to spot a distant figure. A single click fires your rifle. After each shot, you must zoom back out to the map to relocate, as the recoil jars your aim to a new position. The pace is methodical, tense. Missing a shot or taking too long to find a target often means a sudden, fatal shot from an enemy sniper you never saw. It feels like a patient, lethal game of hide and seek where every decision is final.
