Clear Vision II is a hit man for hire. The first mission was to kill an x-wife of someone because they thought that she was crazy!

After finding and entering the "kill zone" you then take the shot. When you kill the target, blood shoots out where the bullet hit and the target falls. You calmly walk away and back to the office where you will collect the money from the grateful client. You then have the choice whether to go home or take another job.

Bowman 2 is all about shooting an arrow through the heart of your opponent. Very graphic and disturbing. In order to shoot the arrow; you must use your mouse and your left button. Clicking anywhere in the game window (making sure that you always have enough room to adjust the strength and angle of the arrow), you must move your mouse back and down to get the correct angle and strength, then release the left button and your arrow flies. You are hoping the arrow will fly right into the heart of your enemy, thus killing him.

Tactical Assassin 2 is a violence rated game. You are given a mission in which you are told who or what to kill. You are given your guns and ammo and sent out to find the target. The first time you play this game, you must get through training in order to be able to continue. This game is all about taking the shot at the right time. Killing with the first shot gets you points as well as killing within a specified time limit.
