Hitman: Contracts is the third game in the Hitman series by Eidos Interactive and Io Interactive.
You again take on the role of 47, the famous hitman of the past two games. The story opens with 47 being shot, and he is lying on the floor, dying. The whole game takes place in "flashbacks", and the missions you complete are missions that 47 has "already done", and he is reminsicing about them on his death bed. The beginning level opens up in the insane asylum where you ended the first game. People who finished the first game will immediately recognize it, but you do not need any past experience to enjoy the game or story.
To complete your missions, 47 has access to a large variety of weapons. You've got pistols, both regular and silenced, shotguns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, and more.
You will be tasked with killing various targets or completing objectives, and you have a variety of ways to do so. For example, you come across your target in a mess hall, with a guard nearby. Do you kill the target, then take on the guard and others who come after you? Do you run to the kitchen, put laxative into his soup, and wait to kill him when he runs to the bathroom? Or do you get a sniper rifle, climb up the watchtower at the other end, and shoot him through a window? The choice is yours.
Hitman can be played as stealthily or as aggressively as you want. The game awards sneaky players with the "Silent Assassin" ranking, which gives you a special weapon upon completion. To do this, you must not fire your weapon at anybody except the target, and even then, you can only kill the target with one shot. You cannot kill anybody else, unless they are specific targets. Hitman: Contracts rewards those who are up to the challenge.
