This is... well, I'll just say that I know it's no coincidence that the sniper is female and all the victims are male. If you want to add more realism, you need to have her taking down a co-ed audience. More pressing, though, is the issue of spelling and grammar... I've counted a few mistakes in the script -- you should go over the .fla file to make sure there's no spelling mistakes or text spilling out from its box.

Great game although the gameplay is slightly lacking. But the requirements of reading the quest dialogue and the fact that it has a moral makes it great 4/5

This is a good game in many ways. I like the story and the peoples' stereotypical view on the sniper, assuming that he's male. However, I felt that something was missing a bit, entertainment-wise that could've gotten you closer to top rating. My advice for an alternative sequel to this game is to implement some extra options for the player. Like upgrades, disguises or something more creative and original.

Although I love the idea of criminals getting what's coming to them, I found the content matter of this game way too heavy. After just a few "missions" I was in a really down mood. The theme of the game is too "real" to be considered "entertainment" in my taste.
Great graphics. Great idea for a character and a mission. Just a bit too oppressive for me personally.

didn't play it to the end, got bored sitting through all the dialogue and doing pretty much the same gameplay over and over again.

With the crazy intro and mercilessly over the top music and cinematics I could have sworn this would be a spoof... But no! Heh, and the "cool" guitar music for the menu screen. "Yeah! Guitars! The person(s) who made this knows I'm cool and therefore like guitars! Yeah! I dig this game..." This is serious! Be warned public... Be warned....

While the game play was much better than the average sniper, the story was quite a bit over the top... It kinda seems like that's more of a way to keep the player as a protagonist, but it ends up kinda taking some of the bite out of the point you're trying to make. 4/5

NICE! I loved it! I want more. The storyline was kickass, the music was kickass, and the shooting was... quite ok, the element of having to shoot at different places on the head, and the random moving people added another element to the game that i enjoyed. Thx for a beautiful game, and plz make another one.

Well anyway, her targets were justified by her character development. I don't have any problem with the game content.
That said, I didn't like the writing all that much. And elements like the Indian prophecy were sort of silly. Some typos/misspellings and whatnot also distract from a game that should be atmosphere-centered (like "principle" in the headline in the cinematic at the end).
Anyway, it was alright. I'll give it 3/5.

Amazing storyline. you people saying its sexist, well, thats life, huh? i must admit the shooting part was completely unoriginal the only good part was the pressure points.

is this a glitch? in the prologe use the scroll bar while your mouse is on the game screen, some text gets edited or something.

WTF is this like shakespere?? "i need not my possessions"? man, the dialog seems quite strange, gameplay is pretty good, but the storyline, oh the storyline. Anyway, is she supposed to be stalking everyone to know what they r doing wrong?

Killer game (no pun intended) I loved it. The soundtrack was great, the storyline was great, had a little trouble zooming with my scroll ball, but overall I totally give it 5/5.

it's not sexism if it's put in the right context.
on another note, good eye for detail, but you need to improve the dialogue. it made some of my hair fall out.

The game was actually very good. I liked it.
However, given the fact that all the cutscenes were stylized and black and white, I think the game would have been better in all black and white.

I think a lot of people are missing the "sexism" point. It's not that it's overtly sexist, terrible things happen in the world, but it's that it's so over the top. Bringing attention to something is one thing, but over time, it becomes shock value and you stop really caring. "Blah blah rape blah blah little girl hung herself blah blah who do I shoot and where?" You can't really emotionally connect because each event is just an excuse to shoot a guy in the head and you know the next guy is just gonna one-up the previous on the perv-o-meter. The result is that it's not eye-opening or world changing or anything, it's just chessy and campy, and not in a good way. Also, this game needs a save function.

And a note for these other posters, you guys can be really dumb, yeah this may have been a little sexist, but its a true facet of liife, its only corrupting those who want to play a messed up genre anyway. ITS AN ASSASSIN Game, if you dont want to be "Corrupted" Dont play games about killing people you hypocritical, closet homocides! Jeeze, acknowledge the positives or negatives of gameplays, otherwise dont play, its a simple thing to do or not do. So stop corrupting people with your stupidity and either play the game or dont, dont blame the creator for his views or artistic style to the game, because story is an art so Ill put down that argument now, idiots...

I loved it, to explicit for badges but a good game, the weak points add a twist to an old genre and the dark tale is an opener for some and a sad reminder of what I grew up in for myself. Congratz on the really good game hope I can see more of your stuff

There is more melodrama in this game than a soap opera.
Dialogue was cheesy as hell and the gameplay was mediocre.
At least the game looked nice.
2/5
