The objective is to fire three shots at Kennedy’s motorcade in Dallas from assassin Lee Harvey Oswald’s sixth-floor perch in the Texas School Book Depository, all of which has been digitally re-created.

Points are awarded depending on how accurately the shots match the official version of events as documented in by the Warren Commission, which probed the assassination. —Shoot JFK from your own computer (World Net Daily)

There is a chapter in Graham Nelson’s epic interative fiction work “Jigsaw” that involves a similar historical recreation (in text, of course).
