In this physics-based archery game, precision meets strategy. Aim carefully, draw your bow, and let your arrows fly to take down every orc in each handcrafted level. Use your brain as much as your bow—hit explosive barrels, bounce shots off reflective surfaces, or trigger chain reactions to defeat enemies in style. The fewer arrows you use, the better your victory. ● LOTS OF LEVELS - Many worlds to unlock and new unique levels being made regularly. ● PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE - Take your time to defeat all the orcs and retry as much as you like. ● INTUITIVE CONTROLS - Easily play with one hand in portrait mode. ● CASUAL - Casual yet challenging shooting and puzzle mechanics makes it ideal for anyone looking to pass time. ● LOW POLY - Stylized visuals make it accessible to any age group. ● PLAY OFFLINE - Perfect to play while travelling without an internet connection. ● FREE - Play for free as much as you'd like. ● PHYSICS FUN - Your arrows act realistically with physics allowing you to make precise shots. Enemies also have ragdoll physics which lead to unexpected and silly outcomes! Can you get a perfect score?
