Description
This interactive reenactment puts the player on the sixth floor of the Texas Schoolbook Depository building, in Lee Harvey Oswald's shoes, behind his Mannlicher-Carcano sniper rifle. Watching Dealey Plaza through the rifle's crosshairs, players take aim on JFK, as the motorcade approaches, and are then rewarded for how accurately they can recreate the events of November 22nd 1963.
A replay of in-game events provide famous perspectives on the assassination, including a Zapruder-view of the events. Players are rewarded for not deviating from the Warren Commission's finding, although the game allows for experimentation. Players are also competing for a $100,000 prize for the most accurate recreation.
