The 3D hidden object game "Sharpshooter Dan: The All-Encompassing Agency" is now officially available. The digital version launches on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and Switch, while the PS5 physical edition has also been released simultaneously.
PQube and Denki simultaneously released the launch trailer, showcasing the player's adventures in Clumsy County. The game features six locations, including quiet parks and busy airports, where players accept missions to help local residents deal with various troubles.
Unlike traditional shooting games, the player's target is not enemies, but problems hidden within the scenes. Each mission requires players to interpret clues, observe the environment, and identify the issue, then use a sniper rifle to precisely shoot and complete tasks such as fixing rusty faucets, shearing sheep, or stopping pelicans from stealing.
Beyond missions, players can use their earnings to purchase decorations for the office and upgrade their sniper rifles. The game also offers additional modes and various mini-games, allowing players to continue searching for hidden content or challenging themselves for higher scores.
Denki Creative Director Gary Penn stated that the team had a lot of fun creating these absurd scenarios, hoping the game would add a touch of whimsy to an overly serious world. The game is also designed for family-friendly co-op, allowing spectators to assist players in spotting easily overlooked details.
The Switch 2 version can be purchased separately or upgraded for free by owners of the Switch version, and supports the mouse functionality of Joy-Con 2. The Steam version offers a 20% discount during the first two weeks after launch.
