Laura, Go Away! Overview
Laura, Go Away! was one of those odd, memorable games from the Flash era. It appeared online when these quick, browser-based games were a common way to pass time. The premise was straightforward and a bit absurd. You were tasked with dealing with a problematic talk show host named Laura, who had somehow offended your nation.
You control a sniper's crosshair with your mouse. Your goal is simple: eliminate Laura before she completes her broadcast. The moment to moment play involves tracking her movements on screen, waiting for a clear shot. She is often surrounded by bodyguards or civilians, so timing is critical. The game introduces complications, like hostages or moving targets, which force you to hesitate. It moves quickly, and the difficulty comes from the pressure to act without causing collateral damage. The experience feels like a tense, slightly ridiculous puzzle where a single click carries more weight than you expect.
