#Archery

Well first off this is probably one of my favorite vr games of all time. It has tons of things to do and lots of minigames. Some of my favorite things to do were bake pizzas, deliver news papers, clip the plants, kill the zombies, take selfies, play basketball, hit things with an axe, destroy the houses (which are destructible), and just fool around trying to beat my other scores. So I guess what I’m trying to say is… if you have vr, and you don’t own this game… THEN GET IT! Oh and if you want to see gameplay then simply go to this link. https://www.youtube.com/watchv=KldInHTo7Ik&feature=youtu.be

Like many VR games, this was neat when it came out but now just feels more like a dated tech demo. It’s probably fun for kids and it really has a lot of unique and creative variety when it comes to archery games. Don’t expect much expect for some fun mini games and lots of hidden easter eggs and minigames to find.

If I could give it a neutral rating I would. Get it on sale if you really want to check it out or add it to your collection.

Medieval Archery Simulator

Medieval Archery Simulator

Join a grand tournament and earn the title of the best archer there is!

Prove your superiority over other archers! Dominate every competition, use the wind to your advantage, and learn to shoot before your muscles tire.

Practice outside of official tournaments and hone your skills before a competition. Take the wind into account when choosing a faraway target. Learn to aim quickly, as your muscles will eventually tire out, making it increasingly difficult to aim. And if your target moves too quickly or is too far away - use your sharpened senses to temporarily make shooting easier and faster.

Sign up for increasingly prestigious tournaments in various different locations. Build your reputation by overcoming various challenges and outperforming your competition. Be ready for anything - only easy contests involve simple firing at a stationary target. Harder ones will require you to fire while moving, aim at a thrown target, or even play a melody by hitting different bells in quick succession.

Spend your rewards on new bows or arrow parts. Compliment your competitor’s weaknesses by choosing the right equipment. Make sure you match your gear with the archery style you prefer.

Features

  • Realistic first-person archer simulator.

  • Arrow & bow customization.

  • Different, interesting characters to play as, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.

The island and accompanying music were fairly pleasant! I got around to engage in the jogging and archery portions of the game and I must say that both of them were fun! Would recommend if you enjoy calm environments.

So I cannot game recommend this collection of VR sports-themed mini-games. They consist of archery, boxing, and running / jogging in an island setting. The island map is probably the best thing about this game. The visuals aren’t great, but they are nice enough.

Unfortunately, two of the three sports title are just bad. The boxing mini-game, where you basically just hit 3 targets on a boxing dummy over and over again, wave after wave with no challenge is the worst of the bunch. It basically looks and plays like a learn how to make your first VR game in Unreal Engine from Zenva.

Bowslinger

Bowslinger

I played a bunch of the archery game from the lab, loved it, decided I needed more, and bought this. I am not at all dissapointed. The game is fantastic, and I’m sure it will give me plenty of playtime. It has 5 modes: Target practice, challenge, free shoot, endless, and juggling (where you try to keep apples in the air by continually shooting them). All of them feel great, and the game provides useful stats at the conclusion like accuracy, arrows fired, score and grade. The one complaint I have is that I wish it had some kind of a high score tracker - it doesn’t need to be complex, but just some way of comparing your results against previous trials. That beign said, this is a great, well-polished archery game.

This game has probably the best bow mechanics of all the Vive archery games right now. The environment is pretty simple and the gamemodes are a little limited right now but what’s there works really well, mechanically. The high score board keeps you coming back for more, trying to beat other people’s scores as well as improve your own. The presentation is charming, the bow mechanics are excellent, and with more content & modes this will easily be the best archery experience for VR.

Sky Sanctuary is a beautiful archipelago where you can play all kinds of different Samurai mini games. As the game is in early access, there are only a few things to do at the moment.

  • Japanese wood cutting (Tameshigiri)

  • Bow and arrow skill training (Kyudo with 3 modes)

  • and there is a sandbox zone where you can use/try out several Samuari weapons like Shurikens and smoke screen balls.

When I first saw this game I couldn’t help thinking of similar sword slicing VR titles like Fruit Ninja or Katana X, and wondering what would make this game stand out from its competitors. But actually, Sky Sanctuary is probably the more padded out game of the three by presenting itself as a tongue-in-cheek samurai and ninja training game. So whereas chopping things with a katana is an element of all three games, that’s just one component of Sky Sanctuary’s full experience, also offering the ability to walk around the small floating island, shoot a bow, and mess with ninja type goodies like smoke bombs, shurikens and fire staffs. Both the sword and bow experiences are essentially ranked mini-games, with the option to also just mess around the island with them.

A neat little shared splitscreen game where two players completing on various game modes. It is a simple game where each person only has one button to use, A for the left and L for the right side. There are also plenty of different game modes to battle a friend with, from races, sports like golf, soccer and archery and duels. The graphics and visuals are also simple with its 8 bit style which adds to the arcadey aesthetics. Though, it is only really playable if you have another person as that is how the game is intended to be played. Though an addition of an online mode would definitely be great so then you would be able to play with each other online as opposed to it being only a local game. Though overall, it is recommended if you want a 2 player versus game and have someone else to play with. Some time can be sunk into, having a bunch of casual fun as there are plenty of challenges you can play against a friend with. It is fun to have in short bursts and come back to from time to time.

Arrowpoint is a very nice Indie-game. You are riding on the back on a horse along a corridor and try to shoot targets with bow and arrows While the horse is autorunning, you only have to concentrate on the shooting, which is a little bit tricky but makes a lot of fun. The best part of the game is the surreal background, because after some normal targets, a big flying whale appears. For me, this alone is a reason to recommend the game. It is new and cool. Handling is very good, but there is no option for the mouse sensitivity. Graphics are sweet, music is very good. Overall, it is a great little title.

Definitely a fun game, even though it doesn’t last that long. It has good replay value for a while. Would certainly love some new levels and mouse sensitivity slider.

Pros:

  • Looks great aesthetically

  • Nice physics

  • Fun gameplay

  • Awesome music and menu

  • Dirt cheap!

Cons:

  • Can’t change mouse sensitivity, and the stock sensitivity is a bit fast for me personally

Overall, a great game and it shows that you can make good games. Looking forward to the next game(s). I will keep playing to try and get a better score.

Hunting Unlimited 1

Hunting Unlimited 1

This game is the very first Hunting Unlimited, and I have to say it’s one of my favorites, I love to recurve hunt grizzlies, and do the endless amount of missions. I have played alot of the missions and I’m not even close to being done, I do without a doubt recommend this game, another thing is that it is old and runs good on old computers.

I got this title in the Trophy Collection Complete bundle at 33% off. So I paid $6.69 USD, and it was pretty much one of my best purchases on Steam. I remember seeing the box in stores way back in the day, but figured I just wouldn’t be any good at it. I wish I hadn’t waited. Because I’m terrible at it, but I’m getting better.

With a target range to help you practice after failed hunts, the trophy room, and some bucks that randomly flee over nothing, what’s not to love? Seriously though, they even lay down and graze and this game is from 2001. The game even has me looking up videos on whatever I’m using in the hunt, and honestly you can apply real world tips in the game.

Worst archery game ever. Do not buy. Too many issues with this game to even list.

Not fit for an adult or child. I knew it might be poor from reading the previews but I thought I should give it a shot. No pun intended. I had no idea it would be this bad. Disappointing.
