The basics
It's a 1v1 sniper game on Roblox. Easy to pick up, but there's real depth once you start trying to win.
It's a 1v1 sniper game. You and your opponent face off and try to land shots on each other. First to the round target wins the duel. Simple to learn, takes a while to master.
You're not standing still. Strafing side to side, jumping, and using cover make you way harder to hit. Most beginners stand still and get tapped — keep moving.
Hit the head, win the trade. Lead your shots a little when your opponent is strafing, and learn to flick to where they're about to be, not where they are.
Gems are the in-game currency. You use them to open cases and get skins for your snipers and knives. Some skins get genuinely valuable on the trading market.
Movement
The single biggest beginner mistake is standing still. A moving target is hard to hit — make yourself one.
Aiming
Movement keeps you alive; aim wins duels. Here's how to actually hit your shots.
Aim feels off? Your sensitivity might be wrong for you. The best settings guide has community-tested ranges to dial in.
Economy
Outside of dueling, there's a whole collecting and trading side to the game. Here's how it fits together.
Gems are the in-game currency. You earn them by playing and spend them on cases, which roll random skins for your snipers and knives. Rarer skins can be genuinely valuable, which is where trading and the value list come in — players swap skins and chase the ones they want.
You can earn gems for free just by playing (see free gems), or buy them cheap if you want to open cases faster. Either way works.
Level up
A few habits separate players who improve from players who plateau.
A sensitivity, FOV, and keybinds that fit you make a huge difference. Our settings guide gives community-tested ranges to start from.
