What's up hivers?

I hope my readers are not bored of continuously reading about my pirate gameplay of Assassin's Creed Black Flag.

But if you're bored, I'm here to erase out that boredom of yours and I have something cool to talk about today.

Today, I will talk about Hitman Sniper: The Shadows.

ABOUT THE GAME:
Hitman Sniper: The Shadows is an action, role-playing game set in a wholly original Hitman story. The game focuses on events following the disappearance of Agent 47.
As a member of The Shadows, you must embark on globetrotting assignments, eliminate targets with stealth and creativity, engage in fierce competition, and build your reputation as the International Contract Agency (ICA) elite agent.

If there's someone who played the original Hitman Sniper with agent 47 then he should start playing this game right away.
This game was developed by Square Enix and it's available to play for android and apple phone only.
Square Enix has developed a lot of famous games such as Marvels Avengers, Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy, Final Fantasy etc.

Let's come to Hitman Sniper: The Shadows.

Knight
She is a young woman with a big Sintac Inc.. S200 model sniper rifle and her expertise lies in headshots.
Knight is the character that was unlocked at the beginning and she is the character that should get most of the upgrade as she is the first character to play with. I have upgrader the power of this character a lot by upgrading her level and the weapon.

The Sintac Inc., S200 got a lot of upgrades and I spent a lot of in game money after this gun. Now I get a lot of points when I play with this gun and the character Knight.

Enough talking about the features of the game, now let's play some matches.

Screenshot_20220706-230027.jpg

Let's play an active contract first where I got some main objectives which are eliminating June Wei who was the main target for that campaign, eliminating all guards, score at least 3,200 points.
And I had the bonus objectives to use woodhipper, heat lamp and breaker box to kill the targets and make it look like accident.

Screenshot_20220706-230034.jpg

My character Knight chose a good place inside the wood and the whole targeted area is nicely visible from there.

Screenshot_20220706-230042.jpg

At first I used the eye button to check where are all the targets.

Screenshot_20220706-230109.jpg

Then I zoomed in the sniper and I first used the woodchipper to kill a guard and it was looked like an accident.

Screenshot_20220706-230129.jpg

Then I used the breaker box to eliminate June Wei and it was also looked like an accident.

Screenshot_20220706-230150.jpg

A guard noticed the corpse of June Wei but nothing happened as it was an accident he thought.

Screenshot_20220706-230315.jpg

Then I used a car horn and then I killed a guard by destroying the car. A civilian understood that something was wrong so she was calling backup and I had to kill her.

Screenshot_20220706-230326.jpg

Then it was all clear there.

Screenshot_20220706-230341.jpg

Then I shot on a bucket over a water well that created sound and the guard close to it came near the water well to see what happened.

Screenshot_20220706-230413.jpg

Then I took the chance and did a headshot and the guard fell on the water well.

Screenshot_20220706-230453.jpg

Then it was the only guard alive and somehow he noticed that I was shooting there and he was alerted and started shooting me. If he got the chance to keep shooting me for some rounds then I'd lose. But I didn't give him the chance and I killed that last guard as well.

Screenshot_20220706-230523.jpg

The mission was completed with all the main objectives and bonus objectives with a total score of 50,690.

It was a nice and easy win. Now let's try a PVP match.

Screenshot_20220706-230549.jpg

I chose an option from those three options.

Screenshot_20220706-230557.jpg

Looking for opponent. I think it looks for real time opponent although I get confused cause my opponent can't win over me

Screenshot_20220706-230607.jpg

My Knight has found another Knight.

Screenshot_20220706-230614.jpg

My mission is to outscore my opponent by eliminating target and guards.

Screenshot_20220706-230621.jpg

I got some main objectives which are eliminating the head security guard and eliminating all other guards.
And I had the bonus objectives to use propane tank, explosive valve and explosive canister to kill the targets and make it look like accident.

Screenshot_20220706-230623.jpg

My character Knight chose a building far from the targeted place and the targeted place was enough visible from this sight to eliminate the targets. I had 1 minutes and 30 seconds to outscore my opponent.

Screenshot_20220706-230635.jpg

I started killing and the first kill was an accidental kill where I used the Explosive Canister.

Screenshot_20220706-230708.jpg

Then I kept killing the guards and the guards kept coming while someone was killed so it was a not stop killing in the limited time.

Screenshot_20220706-230800.jpg

And I completed the match with 3 times better score of my opponent.

Here's my half an hour gameplay where I played both campaign and contracts and I used mobile twitch to stream the gameplay and later I exported the gameplay to my youtube channel.

This game looks pretty cool. Definitely something I would have played on my phone back in the day. Now I prefer more chill games like Slay the Spire.

You still can give it a try if you're bored somewhere and you have your phone with you.
I never tried Slay the Spire but as you're talking about it, think I need to give it a try.
Thanks.

I played 2 versions of Sniper games of Hitman and I convinced myself saying they are the best sniper game, at least for mobile.
Thank you for your comment.
