First Person Shooter Games
Mouse-look shooters seen from behind the weapon; the most immersive and the most hardware-hungry group.
Tanks Games
Slow movement, arcing shells and terrain that matters.
Archery Games
Bows, arrows and wind — shooting as a timing puzzle.
Gun Games
Gun-handling and range games where the weapon itself is the point.
Sniper Games
One shot per target, scope breathing and patience.

Kinds of shooting games
The common thread is that your aim is the skill being tested; everything else varies. First-person shooters put you behind the weapon with mouse look and a keyboard; top-down and side-view shooters trade immersion for readability and work far better on a phone; sniper games are closer to puzzles, one careful shot at a time; tank games add slow, heavy movement and projectile arcs; archery swaps bullets for a drawn bow and wind.
If the shooting is incidental to surviving waves of enemies you will find more under action games; if it happens between dozens of other players in a shared arena, under io games.
Controls and performance in the browser
First-person titles need a mouse and usually ask the browser for pointer lock — a one-click permission that keeps the cursor inside the game. They are the most demanding games in the catalog, so on a low-powered laptop prefer the top-down and sniper sections, which run smoothly almost anywhere.
On touch screens, the games that were designed for it draw a virtual stick and a fire button; the ones that were not will feel clumsy, and their pages say so.
What is the difference between FPS and other shooting games?

A first-person shooter shows the world from the character's eyes and is controlled with mouse look plus the keyboard. The rest of this page — top-down, side-view, sniper and tank games — shows the action from outside, which is easier to read on a small screen and lighter on the machine.
Why does a shooting game ask to lock my mouse?

Pointer lock keeps the cursor inside the game so you can turn continuously without it leaving the window. It is a standard browser permission, it ends the moment you press Escape, and nothing is recorded by it.
