About

Bully Ball

Features
Read full description

Let's hunt the bully balls. The bullets you throw at the balls reduce their health. When the balls run out of life, they are split into two smaller balls. If the balls hit us, you start again with your skills reset. Don't let the balls hit you or you may die. If you want to win you have to destroy all the balls. It's time to show them who is better. Good luck
