I got a review copy, I did not pay for the game. As such I got to play the game a day early... I was sucked in solidly for about 8/9 hours. Unlike other hidden object games, my eyes weren't as fatigued (perhaps because it was 3D models, rather than static images). Great, funny, chill/cozy game (despite the guns). Lovely, rewarding and humour-filled animations after completing various tasks. Also the game has a lot …

This game is like Where's Waldo (or Wally, localised where I'm from :sob:) meets those sniper assassination flash player games (yummy childhood core memory soup). Except in this case the sniper isn't as much an edgy serial killer and more so a friendly fella who doesn't actually (intentionally) harm anyone. Very fun and wholesome, chill game to play with one hand when ur tired from playing action packed fps games …

I've played a ton of hidden objects games but this one probably has the most unique approach to the genre that I've ever seen and I absolutely love it. Addictive gameplay, brilliant humor, and plenty of collectibles for those dopamine hits.

I'm going to say, yes, I recommend Sniper Dan, but with some caveats. First, I've never played a hidden picture game except for looking at Where's Waldo books when I was a kid. The core of Sniper Dan is great and fun. The silly helping tasks often made me chuckle and they were never "too hard" to find, but were tricky enough. As long as that's all you expect, you'll be happy! Everything around that though feels a …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best hidden object games in recent memory. Sniper Dan blends an addictive, rewarding gameplay loop, with a satisfying craving for secrets and unlocking everything the game has to offer. The entire premise is ridiculous, but that's what makes it such a refreshing take on the genre.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I just finished the demo for a game called Sniper Dan and it's a nice mix of Where's Waldo and Silent Scope. In fact, I kinda wish I could play it on a Silent Scope cabinet.

neutral · AI labelView post →Sniper Dan the best misuse of firearms since the Arcade and Console classic, Point Blank. Cartoonish fun, comedic settings and animations. Easily my favourite new small indie game of 2026. Try the demo, if you love that you'll love the game. A full completion takes around 10 hours, but you can reset the game if you want. There's plenty of stuff to do including different game modes, although it would to see more locations added. Maybe season events?

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →adorable game, relaxing and fun! (if only was this easy in real life to shoot your problems away amirite? haha)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's cute and a decent idea, but very heavy on the hidden object aspect rather than the puzzle aspect. I feel like it's trying to be funny like Katamari, but it looks and feels more like My Sims.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun spin on where's waldo! Indie diamond in the rough, pick it up if you want fun little experience.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Waldo better be checking his back, we got a sniper trained on him! It's a neat cross between a Hidden Object game and an FPS with charming/funny npc interactions (something about popping an adult's balloon and having them just turn towards the camera and staring at you is just great). You're given a list of tasks to find and shoot in each of the levels (5 levels with 1 extra that serves as the tutorial). Each main level spans 3 days, each day changing slightly and with all new tasks, totaling…

neutral · AI labelView post →Overall, really fun and relaxing game! Only negative thing I have to say about the game is that there are some random glitches where the gun cannot shoot, or you cannot zoom for some resaon, unless you restart the game. It's a light game, so restarting doesn't take too long, but it's still an annoyance.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sniper Dan is out now! This is such a delightful hidden object game with so much character, all of the cute animals, maximum silliness and LOADS of replayability.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a huge fan of hidden object games, but the goals only hint at what your target actually is and that keeps me engaged for the first go-round. Afterwards, you jump right back into the same round to speed run it for the S rank. A chill, and charming game I'm looking forward to finishing off.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very nicely stylized and very funny and cute, sadly however it would appear I do not have the patience for hidden object games.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Eyes On: Sniper Dan [Demo Available] A sniper game that takes me back to the early 2000s of Newgrounds or the later Kongregate, not as adult focused this time around but a fun little hidden object game where you use your sniper to solve problems! #indiegames store.steampowered.com/app/2841650/...
positive · AI labelView post →This is a really fun lost and found game! The entire shooting gameplay is giving a fresh feeling on this old genre, the art is funny, the music is getting annoying really quickly though and the true 100% who doesn't match the steam achievements for some reason? Let's say it was very challenging but a bit of pain in the end, overall it's a great game with a great price tag! I recommend it even though it's lacking a bit of polish here and there and some additional soundtracks.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →These days, I'm sure many of us have felt the urge to grab a high-powered rifle, get on top of a tall building, and solve some of the world's problems. Well, Wait, let me start over. Sniper Dan is a hidden-object game with occasional timing/reflex challenges and a relentlessly whimsical, sun-shiney atmosphere. The main selling point is the overwhelming charm of it all... It's almost like an inverse Tom & Jerry - instead of cartoon characters indulging in what would, in ordinary reality, be…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been playing this really silly game called Sniper Dan. It's effectively just a hidden object game, but with lots of a humour. Highly recommend if you're looking for a little laugh. Itch: denki.itch.io/sniperdan Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2841650/...

neutral · AI labelView post →This game can best be described as "click to slapstick", and yet there's a surprising amount of fun in that. For the price, I certainly had fun finding everything and seeing what twist came with each job. There's not a lot past that novelty, but I think that novelty is worth it at this price.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game could be the perfect advertisement for the NRA to "prove", that guns don't kill and trying to sell away that kind of propaganda to children with it's cute graphics! Joke aside, this is a really fun and goofy Hidden Object Game genre, which took me 8 hours in total for beating the main missions and phone missions. But if you wish to play the other two modes (ammunition and time mode), you got in theory three times more playtime included and 3 minigames (air hockey, tennis and…

positive · AI labelView post →It's a non-violent sniper game that's much closer to very silly Where's Waldo most of the time. You're penalized for shooting at living things. And almost everything you can shoot has a silly reaction. Very fun except when I get stuck looking for something for 20 minutes.
