Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Keyboard Controls
Splinter Cell is Ubisoft Montreal's 2002 stealth game that introduced Sam Fisher, his trifocal goggles and the light meter that decides whether a guard ever sees him. These are the PC defaults from the Control Map printed in Ubisoft's manual: the mouse wheel sets Sam's walking speed and doubles as the sniper and Sticky Cam zoom, Space opens context interactions, and holding Ctrl brings up the quick inventory.
