15 itemsAbout the Game
The Riflemen is a fun, fast-paced low poly first-person shooter where matches are short and full of action! All players start with bolt-action rifles that they don’t need to reload. Players can customize their weapons and characters to get the look they want.
The Riflemen offers a variety of game modes to suit your playstyle.
You can disable the supply drops in Barebones to get only bolt-action rifle action or make it even more competitive with the Hardcore type where every hit will be an insta-kill!
The Riflemen is a battle of skills and a true trial of friendships. Aim, shoot, reload, and repeat — no automatic weapons, only tough-ass action. Headshots make your opponents go sleepy-time at once and supply drops might bring you a shotgun, a sniper rifle, a bazooka, frag grenades, rapid fire pistol, mines or even a gunto sword! Whew, now that's a lot of fire power!
The Riflemen isn't just about raw skill – it's about expressing yourself on the battlefield. As you progress through over 100 levels, you'll unlock a variety of character and weapon skins, allowing you to create a soldier that's uniquely yours. Don't stop there! Personalize your arsenal with a variety of wood and metal finishes, crafting a weapon that reflects your playstyle.
In The Riflemen, the battlefield is your canvas, and the bolt-action rifle your brush. Every shot a stroke, every kill a masterpiece.
