Add another horror FPS to your list this Halloween, as Puppet Combo has announced that Black Eyed Priest and Henry Hoare’s gritty 1970’s inspired FPS Sniper Killer will launch on October 17 for PC via Steam. And if you never got around to checking out the demo last year during Steam Next Fest, you can still do so.
One part ‘reverse horror’ madman simulator, one part hard boiled detective mystery, Sniper Killer is from the minds that brought you Bloodwash and Night at the Gates of Hell. The story puts you in the role of the hard-boiled Detective Comardy, who must race to solve the case of the cryptic Sniper Killer. Mixing things up a bit in terms of gameplay is the fact that you also play as the eponymous killer while you stalk the streets looking for your next victim.
How does he choose his victims? Does he have a motive for these seemingly random acts of atrocities? Can the burnt-out detective solve this case before even more bodies start piling up? This retro horror thriller is enough to make any true-crime fans pick up their detective hats and start searching for clues.
Mixing that familiar retro PSX aesthetic of past Puppet Combo games with equally retro game design, the intriguing mystery of Sniper Killer aims (sorry) to keep you glued until the end.
