Face Raiders (Japanese: 顔シューティング Hepburn: Kao Shūtingu?, lit. "Face Shooting") is a 3D augmented reality shooter video game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo. It was released as preloaded software on all systems in the Nintendo 3DS line of hardware, and was first released in 2011.
Face Raiders is a single player, augmented reality, shooter game that uses the handheld's gyroscopic controls and cameras. It was first released with the Nintendo 3DS and has been preloaded on all devices in the family. The game is an extended tech demo with a total of two modes and nine levels. Six of these are the primary experience for players, with the three stages in the secondary mode designed to be shown friends unfamiliar with the game. After taking pictures of people's faces, the game uses the faces to create enemies that attack the player, who must shoot them. The background of the game is the rear camera's viewpoint, which enemies will break through and hide behind. As people walk by in the background, the game takes their pictures, adding to the faces the player must shoot, and adding to the player's score. There are also combos for repeating an action, which multiply the score every time (e.g. if the player hits enemies in the mouth continuously). There are butterflies which can be hit in order to refill health and bombs to collect to be used to destroy all enemies on the screen. At the end of each stage, the player battles a boss. When the boss is defeated, its helmet will transform into an afro. Local high scores are record on a leaderboard.
