The content of Sniper Elite is not the best, a member of the US army dressed in German uniforms, trying to resist the bad Soviet military to steal nuclear weapons, download via torrent if you want to participate in this. He is all alone and has no assistants, and now the last days of the war in 1945, Russian speakers are wandering around the defeated Berlin, and every word has a touch of pathos. If you ignore this farce or classify the developers as lovers of alternative history, you can look at the game with new eyes. Our hero is not suitable for the role of the usual commando for us, hung with weapons from head to toe. Several types of weapons, a pack of various grenades, explosives, RPGs and medicines: a bandage and a device to distract sentries – that’s all. Moreover, all weapons are displayed on the model.

The main feature is stealth. Running at full speed around the city, lowering precautions is the height of irresponsibility. Opponents are always on the alert, and at difficult levels they manage to see with half stealth, and he notices a couple of shots even faster. And you can’t improve health with a few first-aid kits. It remains to crawl, often turn around, hide in shelters and be on the alert. Sniper Elite spoils us with a number of mission options, download via torrent and try it. On the maps, you can choose which streets and how to move to your destination, lanes are open for maneuvers. Unfortunately, our character is not jumpy and does not know how to climb. The number of operations pleases: all kinds of sabotage work, theft of documents, the rescue of an agent, etc. Any is divided into several small levels, but it happens that the area is searched several times.

The game is similar to a simulator: both the direction of the wind is considered, and ballistics, and the sight depends on the location of the body in space and the grenades are very realistic and even the character holds his breath, as in life. But these are just additives that make the illusion. The game has flaws: it is impossible to ram wooden walls, shooting in the head is not always fatal, and a few in the leg – death. But the reaction to the wound is real – the fighters scream wildly, limp or, bending over, stumble. The streets look angular and unsightly, the local ruins are really broken ceilings, black emptiness instead of windows, piles of garbage and charred remains of houses in which it is possible to hide. The game turned out to be a bit long, but solid and dynamic.
