The game is fun if we’re just a game. But when you play for real money the mechanics of the game-controls, speed of the targets, accuracy of when one shot counts as a 10 vs when one counts for dramatically less vary way too much when playing for real money. Additionally, when you get a call or something in the middle of a round it will automatically abort the round and the entire tournament and if you’re lucky you’ll get the entry fee refunded. Takes the fun out of it. Deleted it and moving on.
The game itself isn’t bad. Pretty good arcade style with decent looking deer. Shouldn’t really be advertised as a free app though. As you go, matchups become harder and harder to win, to the point you can’t make up tokens without paying money. Recorded multiple perfect marksman rounds and wound up losing them somehow. Not sure how as the level couldn’t have been completed any better. Also had matchups that I wasn’t paired up with anyone, which wound up being counted as a loss. Was just looking for a fun quick game to pass a couple minutes of down time. Not as good as I hoped

Hi RAdam12!
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. You can always enter our practice tournaments on all of our games using our free Z Coin. Also, be sure to keep your apps up to date and keep an eye on our Skillz news if any future adjustments are made. If you have any questions or additional feedback, please feel free to contact us at support@skillz.com.I can play practice rounds which give you 2 z coins or whatever and get 10k-14k point games. Okay the exact same way, hit all perfect shots in a tournament and get 6k points while the player I’m against gets 10k+ points. Then sometimes vice versa. It’s all rigged for them to keep your money. They have bots. The mods are a bunch of liberal crybabies who don’t let you say anything in chat. Can’t general topic discuss the game even without getting muted. Can’t give tips, anything. They’re literal crybabies. Lot of Karen’s in the game also, who think they personally know you even though they don’t even know your name. Skillz games in general are garbage and I recommend staying away from them. They need to be shut down.
This game has too many inconsistencies that ruin the enjoyment. The doe have different speed up times than the buck, the bullet paths aren't always where you shoot, the point system for what they consider a kill shot is absolutely garbage, and the lead times on the same stands are never the same. Also, why do all these games think everyone wants PVP alllll the time. It turns i to a cash grab eventually just begging for you to load cash onto the game to use their terrible mechanics to play against others for cash tournaments. I only recommend this game for you first 5-6 levels, then delete it for your enjoyment. Or frustration.
I have always loved big buck hunter. Thats where I always spend my time and change wherever they have one set up. This is trash. You can only play 1 site 1on1, no trecks, no picking where you go, nothing. Even if you pay, you can do matches 1on1 or in brackets but its still just one site at a time at random. If your thinking “at least thats fair to both players” you would be wrong. Your opponent isn't chosen before the match, it looks like they are with a randomizer but after the match it can be different or worse say its atill finding you a match after you have finished. It just matches you later with people who scored higher and keeps your money because whatever bonus cash or deals you get or earn cant be cashed out. So once your down to bonus cash you win and take someone else’s money. Don’t waste your time. Go back to the arcade and play if you want actual buck hunter. I wont even be doing that anymore. Last of my money that will go to Big Buck Hunter in any form.
First off there should be no reason why a mobile game should have moderators. Secondly, the game has so many inaccuracies to it that after every shot that seems to be a perfect shot really isn’t perfect at all. You can lead all you want on a deer from distance and still end up having to take a second shot or the doe gets hit. For a game where it’s paid to win has so many flaws to it and I quit because I was tired of losing over petty crap or having to wait on a player to make it to the next and they have a 24 hr period to complete that next round or get kicked; we’ll how about make it a 4 hr window to finish the round then kick them.
When the game was first released there was a lot of issues. The updates kept coming and the game is now more consistent, fast paced and fun. the best thing is The money games. It was tough but after getting used to the hit-boxes I'm up a decent amount. Can’t wait for tournaments to get even bigger prizes!!
Fun and challenging. Seems a little fixed at times though. The bullseye zone is easy some games but when you get up in the $$$ it starts to get harder to hit. It’s an advantage for the game maker so you don’t make too much money off of the game. I have hit deer in the same spot and had them bullseye one time and the next it just a good hit.
This is not a fake app and the reviews aren’t fake. This game is fun and it does pay you money. But only if you play a lot or if you deposit money and win games that take money to enter. Overall fun shooting deer and I am just hoping the graphics/physics improve soon. But I do love it and I would recommend it to anyone that likes fun shooting games.
Typically any game of this sort that involves cash is an immediate pass for me because I assume there would be some sort of tampering from the company who made an app like this. After playing, the actual competitiveness of the game and the amount of money I’ve won on it has been great! Mechanics are well rounded and you can really enjoy playing.
