Sniper Tactical

A quirky but strangely addictive little shooter. Not a traditional FPS as you snipe from a couple of fixed points per map (like different windows from a building for example). It claims to be like Lemmings with guns but that's not really accurate either. The hostage you're trying to protect only moves when you shoot so you really have to decide who to shoot next. It's further complicated by patrolling guards so timing is key as well. What results can be infuratingly difficult at times but extremely satisfying when you get it right. There's also equipment upgrades (sights, weapons, tripods and the like) to add a bit of grindability to it as well. It's early access at the moment but what's there is easily worth $5 already. The Dev has been very reactive in squashing reported bugs and hopefully with more levels and more equipment as well as the challenge of trying to beat the best scores per level (online) the longevity should be more than adequate for the price being asked. A little gem...

Love it Reminds me of Delta Force franchise some time back , nice and simple hack and slash shooter.

10/10 would play hostage killer again

A pretty unusual game, as far as I can tell. Let's start with the basic aspects. You are a sniper, shooting enemies from fixed positions. Most of the time, you have two vantage points to choose from during a mission, with one of them likely revealing enemy positions not visible from the other. The shooting is relatively simple. You place the reticle over the target and press the left mouse buttons to shoot. Moving targets require leading, and the basic aim is not steady but it can be stabilized holding your breath or buying better equipment. So far, so good. But here comes the unusual part. The primary objective is [i]not[/i] to kill foes. It's to escort or protect NPCs. They move on a fixed path divided into stages, and your shot is the GO-word for each. You need to work out the best order in which to attack the opposing force and time your shots in order for patrols not to encounter and attack your rather defenseless ward while moving (or waiting). And you are not invulnerable yo...

I highly recommend " Sniper Tactical " not only to the sniper lover community, but to all those hard workers out there on their daily grind, this game is a nice escape and stress reliever. I can say " Sniper Tactical " has a blessed future. 2/1/2016 *Message to the Developers, I have perfected "Sniper Tactical " i love the work you did with this game, i have a Suggestion if it is possible can you make a addon/mod or anything like that where we can edit our own maps? I have beat the maps and levels you put , it stops on 11, i love your game and would really love to see it continue on with more non-stop action, if you can add some more maps it would be great, but then again we will beat them too. but if you put a map editor, we will have non-stop gaming action. A opinion if you do see this message, please put a option in the map editor where we can not only place the npc but also make him walk/run to other places, because a npc just standing is a too much of a easy kill. Aswell a NEW W...

I brought this game at christmas 2015. It is now almost 2018. Last update was at 1st of august 2016 saying "Last update as we leave early access." WHY THE FUCK DOES IT STILL SAY EARLY ACCESS OVER A YEAR LATER!!!!!!!!!!

I love this game. I love the puzzle concept. You have to really think before shooting, as the hostage moves on EVERY shot. This really complicates the game. I would love to hear from players or the developer on how they beat missions, and the difference on how they complete the mission. 9/10, would recommend. Hope this game actually makes it to the big leagues.

ยิงทะลุศัตรู และ ก็ล้มเหลทั้งๆที่เล็งโดนแล้ว ตอน แอ็กชั่น ก็เห็นได้ชัดว่าลูกกระสุนวิ่งเข้าหาศัตรู ตัวประกัน ขยันเดินไปไหน ทำไมไม่รอบ้าง

not that great not enough action

Great idea, but... the game is too difficult and frustrating, even on low difficulty. It shortly takes the pleasure away. I'm stuck at the same mission (classic 11) for days
