The premise, in the publisher's words
Meet Dan. Dan has a sniper rifle. Don’t panic, he’s not here to harm anyone. Dan’s a professional and his job is fixing things. From a distance. With pinpoint accuracy and good intentions. Sniper Dan is a hidden object game unlike any other. Objects aren’t always well hidden and the solution involves shooting them. Each job follows a simple and highly respected method. 1. Figure out the problem. Use the clues. HMM… 2. Find the problem. Scope the area. AHA! 3. Fix the problem. Shoot. WHEE! You’re not hunting enemies. You’re hunting problems. Fixing rusty taps, machines behaving badly, and even stop a thieving Pelican. Travel far and wide across lively 3D locations packed with visual jokes…

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-6600K (4 * 3500) or equivalent/AMD FX-9370 (8 * 4400) or equivalent, 8 GB RAM and GeForce GTX 750 (2048 MB) or Radeon HD 7870 (2048 MB). An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 1GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Sniper Dan launched on 17 September 2026, within three weeks of Marvel's Wolverine, The Blood of Dawnwalker, Control Resonant and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. It arrived 6 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Marvel's Wolverine, The Blood of Dawnwalker, Control Resonant, Onimusha: Way of the Sword.
