Play Photo Op

30 seconds and 3 shots. Works with touch, mouse, or keyboard.

How to play

  1. Aim. Drag your finger on the picture, move your mouse, or use the arrow keys. Hold Shift to move faster.
  2. Zoom. Use the + and − buttons. Closer looks better, and it's harder.
  3. Wait. Every so often he stops and throws a fist in the air. That's your moment.
  4. Shoot. Tap Snap Photo, click, or press Space. You get three shots.
  5. Share. Pick your favorite and share it, or save it as an image.
