Super Bowmasters: Set the Angle, Split the Centre Ring
📚 Game Guides: games picked by genre, one page each
What is Super Bowmasters?
You hold a counted quiver and face targets that stiffen up stage by stage. How far you pull the string and the curve the arrow draws in the air decide whether you split the centre or scrape the rim. As the stages pass the targets shrink and the distance grows.
How to play
Hold the mouse down (or your finger on a phone) to pull the string, and the further back you go the more power the arrow carries. Slide the cursor up and down to set the launch angle, then let go and the arrow flies. Each stage gives you a set number of arrows, and every miss burns one of them. To pass a stage you have to reach the score it asks for, and a centre hit is worth far more than a hit near the rim.

Tips
- Allow for the drop on far targets and place your aim a touch above them.
- Pulling the string all the way back is not always right, since close targets reward less power.
- The stage ends when the quiver does, so never release while unsure; one more second of aiming buys you arrows.
Frequently asked questions
Can an archery game be played on a phone?
Yes, hold your finger on the touchscreen and release it to take exactly the same shot.
Do the stages get harder?
Targets shrink and move further away as you go, so your aim has to get finer.
