Champion Archer

Was $0.99-> Now Free

graphics 2/5
fun 5/5
playability 3/5
overall: 4/5

pros: Satisfying & fun to play
cons: Very hard to get used to, have to start from beginning after a single fault


In Champion Archer you need to provide defence for your marching soldiers as they move from left to right attacking the enemy, who is moving right to left. You lob arrows at the incoming enemy in order to allow your soldiers to make it to the right side of the screen.

The game is really hard to get the hang of & you'd be forgiven for giving up early as the game doesn't seem to be of very high quality - what kept me going was that i wanted to play long enough to level up and get some of the better equipment. I'm glad I persisted as it turned out to be a ton of fun once you get the feel of it!

So here I was playing through the game satisfyingly & then I let one of the enemy reach the left side of the screen - game over. Start again. Everything I'd worked for gone.  Attention game developers: I don't want to play through the boring levels again - let me retry, restart the level, keep what I've earned.  I'm not starting again.

I won't keep this one.
