How to get Snap Points

To collect Snap Points in Sicko Snap you need to take photographs of your targets, also known as 'Sickos', doing things around Hawaii as the Trolley rolls past. However, it's a lot easier said than done, especially while your targets are moving around too.

Remember, you have a limited amount of time and shots to get your target Snap Score to pass the level.

You will be able to see how many photographs you have left at the bottom of your screen, as well as the command prompt to zoom in on your target.

You will be able to see your current Snap Point score in the 'Points' bar on the right side of your screen. The amount of points you need to collect to clear that specific minigame will be displayed in a smaller bar just below it:

You will only earn points the first time you take a photograph of a person. If you take multiple photographs of the same one, you will not earn multiple points - so make sure you're snapping a plethora of subjects!

Be careful though, you have a 'Sicko' limit too. You will be able to see this in the lower right corner of the screen:

Tips for getting a high score in Sicko Snap in Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth

As you have a point target to reach to clear the level and a limited amount of shots to do it in, it's important that you use each photograph wisely to ensure you get the most points you can out of a single shot.

The main thing to remember is that you will get more points if your photograph has the subject in the centre of the frame. If they're cut off to the side or are off-centre then the image will be worth fewer points.

Also, when you're photographing a target you should zoom in if they're far away to make sure you've got a detailed shot of them.

Targets wearing different colours are worth a different amount of points too. Therefore, you should try to target the mid to high range subjects where possible but remember you are on a time limit.

Here's a list of the 'Sickos' you can capture worth the least amount of points to the most:

  • White
  • Blue
  • Red
  • Gold

However, to get the most points out of the rare Golden Sicko you should wait for them to pull their signature pose before snapping a photo of them.
