Bowmaster

**Rincewind** · 09-02-2006, 01:53 PM

So there was a thread about a mouse flash game. In this thread, I introduce you to one of the most addictive flash games I have played:

Just pull back and release your volley! Earn points and upgrade your arsenal. I wasted over four hours of my life playing this

It's good fun.

I hate you!! That thing was soo addictive. I just wasted a good portion of a day leveling up to 59.

**Pokerface** · 09-02-2006, 11:46 PM

I've had a browser up with this game since Friday. I'm sitting in level 76.

**CingularDuality** · 09-03-2006, 05:15 AM

Is this the game that you posted in IRC?

If so, then I'm not going to open it. It kept me up until around 7 in the morning...

**loyalguard** · 09-03-2006, 08:29 AM

Why oh why is it when I finally break an addiction for a flash game does someone post it again on a forum I read. First the sand game now bow master again....aaaaaaaaagggggggggghhhhhhhhh!

FriedFish · 09-03-2006, 10:17 AM

I was able to close my browser and come back. It saved my level and skill points.

**TG_Bubba** · 09-03-2006, 10:41 AM

AAAAAWWWWWWW, damn you.......

**Rincewind** · 09-03-2006, 07:40 PM

The boss levels are the best part!

**sordavie** · 09-03-2006, 08:50 PM

How many levels are there in all?

I dont know. I stopped somewhere around 60. I imagine it will just keep going...

**whistler** · 09-04-2006, 01:53 PM

Am I the only disappointed one? This game is too sloooooow....

EDIT: I take it back... It's kinda fun.

Let the addiction begin.

**Pokerface** · 09-04-2006, 04:45 PM

I'm past 80. It has not shown signs of stopping.

Nutcase!

Do you use a catapult? I found the catapult annoying, so I left it out, but it might be handy now that I'm past lvl 60. I also went without archers until it was required to survive.

For anyone starting out, arrow reload speed and arrow range are two key items.

Edit: arrow range == bow power

Yes. The only thing I've not maxed out is blast power.

The catapult is good, but you need to get its range right, otherwise it could set fire to your own houses. The catapult and archers are pretty key to taking down opposing catapults, which easily are the worst standard units to deal with (since a direct hit can wipe a house with one shot).

**Rincewind** · 09-05-2006, 01:59 PM

Yeah, make sure you put the catapult and archer aim 'dots' quite a bit above your turret if you want them to get far out of range of your villages.

Oh, and did you see the screenshots for Bowmaster 2? Drool : )~
