What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 20 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Very Positive (55 of 63 positive).
Players find it a fun, simple mobile-style game for short bursts. [1][2][3] Some reviewers note it becomes repetitive and grindy after a while. [3][4][5]

Extremely basic sniping game, even compared to something like, say, Geometric Sniper. Even $5 feels like a bit much for a sniping game that feels like a F2P mobile game with the MTX removed. As such, its very hard for me to recommend this game. However, if you want to get it really cheap, and you want to get a lot of games to try out, you could get it as part of the QubicGames 21st Anniversary Bundle when its on …

Loved the game when it was released on the android. Soon as I saw it was on steam, I immediately wishlisted it, and bought it when it released. Bought the game because of nostalgic reasons. Having a blast too! A little tip for the devs: Maybe add mouse support, it makes sense to have mouse support since it is a shooter game.(Currently is only controller support and keyboard support)

Fun and addicting mobile style game. It has alot of unlocks, but requires insane grinding. Also the levels repeat alot, so same enemy positions and format, which gets dull after the 100th level. A fun time passer

As per other, previous entries from the same development team, Johnny Trigger: Sniper is a mobile-first game that was later on published on Steam (without, of course, the mega ad-attacks that this game does on mobile). It's a solid entry to kill some time, make some shots, play around with the weapons and upgrades a little bit - but after an hour or less, you'll be ready to leave the game. Also, one of the …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →doesn't want to work with mouse to aim, wont work with dues sense controller?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →easy and simple gameplay, nice game but nothing for longer time give it a 6/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Such a bad game, even for its low price, I still felt like I was ripped off as this is just a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mobile game without the MTX of a mobile game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Something to play on your lunch or bathroom break. Quite simple and mostly fun for the first few minutes while unlocking most of the easier achievements. Then it get very repetitive and grindy due to its mobile app design. Overall it is not terrible, but cannot recommend it due to being the same thing over and over and over and over. If it is already in your library, give it... a shot? *puts glasses on*

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Short sorta fun game it took me just short of an hour to get all achievements to get the upgrade ur weapons acheivements i just whent into inventory and swapped between my 2 snipers and that for some reason counted and the fire hydrant achievement is bugged so i had to use acheivement manager for that one. I really wouldn't recommend this game even on an 80% sale.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is cool, but I don't know how to get the achievements Hydrant Start-up. How to get this achievement
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Johnny Trigger: Sniper, developed by Estoty and SayGames Ltd and published by QubicGames and Gamersky Games, is a streamlined, arcade-style shooting game that reimagines the sniper fantasy through a fast, highly accessible lens. Rather than focusing on realism or methodical long-range tactics, it delivers a simplified, almost puzzle-like approach where each mission is designed as a quick test of accuracy, timing, and prioritization. The result is a game that feels immediately approachable,…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty nice game to kill some free time, however I would apprectiate more maps and unique scenarios
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not played much but i got on sale and played on my steamdeck , works fine and its not too bad so far . i like both the johny trigger games simple and fun

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Loved the game, found it difficult to stop playing it! A few bits I didn't get at first but once I realised what things were for then it was plain sailing. Needs more senarios though.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For the price it's a decent bit of fun. Does a little bit to scratch the itch I've been feeling since Hitman Sniper Challenge, but not much.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game for the value. Would be great to have adjust aim sensitivity specifically when zoomed-in with scope (currently its general affect whole sensitivity, which is not ideal). There is also bug which happens only when playing with mouse - can't leave screen where 2 boxes need to be opened. It works fine when playing with controller though.
