How to play
Right-click or hold the scope key to aim down sights; left-click to fire. While scoped, the reticle sways with breathing; hold the breath-hold key to steady the aim briefly (costs stamina). The wind indicator shows current direction and strength; the distance to target affects bullet drop. Lead moving targets appropriately.

Editor review
Sniper Range is first-person sniper game with wind, distance, breath simulation, and arc compensation for bullet drop. Forty target-elimination contracts. The genre at its best (Sniper Elite series on consoles, Sniper: Ghost Warrior on PC) demands patience and ballistic-arc thinking. Sniper Range is doing a browser-scale version that hits some of that.
Right, the wind-and-distance mechanics are real. At 600 metres distance with 15kph crosswind, you need to lead the target's movement and offset your aim for the wind. The game shows you these numbers if you have a basic scope. Upgraded scopes calculate the holdover automatically, which is a meaningful progression decision.
The breath simulation is the bit that surprised me. Hold your breath to steady the scope. Hold it too long and your breath gets shaky, then desperate. The shake increases the longer you hold. There's a real tension in deciding when to take the shot, because waiting for the perfect moment costs you steadiness.
Forty contracts is good content. The early ones are tutorials for the mechanics. Mid-contracts add wind variation and moving targets. Late contracts have time-sensitive shots where you can't wait for ideal conditions. And the last five contracts combine all of the above with time pressure.
Four stars. Solid sniper sim for a browser game. Half-star reservation is the visual presentation, which is plain. The genre rewards atmosphere and Sniper Range doesn't have much.
Did six years in QA at a mobile game publisher before the 2024 layoffs took the team. Now contracts QA and reviews games here on the side. Plays on a refusing-to-upgrade Android phone.
