Harry was a fire fighter. He was good at his job but, while on a mission to rescue a girl he stumbled onto a counterfeiting ring. In a corrupt city this was bad news and it cost Harry his job but, worse than that, it cost him his girlfriend as Claire Anderson was killed by the mafia.
Harry left town and trained under an ex-army veteran to become a top sniper. He returned home to take his revenge and found an ally in the mysterious C.A. who supplied him with inside information. When the last mafia boss was dead Harry finally met C.A and found she was Melissa, the little girl he rescued all those years ago, she'd grown a bit but she was still a kid who for some reason possessed the memories of his beloved Claire.
The game starts with Harry and C.A. On the run and driving through the desert in a big pink Cadillac. They pick up Stanley who's car has broken down, in return for the favour Stanley takes them to his favourite diner in Sacramento where he treats them to a meal. While they are eating more mafia show up and start shooting, using a rifle supplied by the diner's lady owner Harry fights back and the game truly begins.
This is Sniper 2 , an action game that delivers short sections of intense action, where the player must make a kill shot within one to two minutes. Every shot is graded, and missing or just wounding a target results in game over. The player is given a chance to try again.
The gameplay involves short bursts of action, followed by storytelling sections that unfold the plot. The game also has a training mode that introduces the player to the controls, but this is limited to stages already unlocked.
