Introduction

One Tap is a free first-person shooter designed to captivate action-packed gaming enthusiasts. In this game, you will embody one of the super soldiers known as “agents,” and your mission will be to defeat other agents in a battle where skill and strategy will be your best allies. Explore various arenas and challenging game modes as you immerse yourself in this thrilling experience.

As an agent, you’ll need to balance your shooting skills and strategy, as you’ll have a pet that will provide you with exceptional abilities. These abilities have the potential to tip the scales in your favor if used at the right moment.

In our “Arena Mode,” players will fight to survive, not only against each other but also against various threats like deadly enemies lurking in the maps, waiting for an easy prey.

Each weapon has its own statistics and unique characteristics, such as fire rate, recoil, damage, and more.

Pet System

Pets play a fundamental role in the game, granting players unique abilities that will have decisive effects during combat.

To access the roster of pets in One Tap Arena, players must first acquire them in the in-game store and select them before each round. It’s important to note that each pet has a unique and limited ability that can only be used once per round.
