User Reviews
This is exactly what I was looking for except I'm uninstalling because of the cannon control...or lack of control. The angle is fine but when choosing the amount of powder to use... one tiny adjustment and I fall short or overshoot with no wind change. Make incremental clicks or some way to measure each shot... fix this control issue.. and I'll say it's a good game. This game is fun and the program is incredibly simple so why not perfect it?
Great game! For those complaining about the randomness of the shot placement, pay attention to the wind direction and wind speed at the top of the screen. You need to adjust the velocity and elevation of your shot to account for wind change.
Плюсы: игра бесплатная, без внутренних платежей, нет лишних разрешений. Минусы: нет выбора языка включая русский, contains ads, мультиплеер только hot seat. В описании игры на Google Play: “An online mode will be added in the future”, однако, в главном меню есть пункт “New Online Game”. Так, есть online PvP, или нет? Если первое, то доступ к интернету игре можно запретить — используется только для скачивания рекламы. Игра запускается на LineageOS 14.1 *20210214-UNOFFICIAL-android_x86_64 (Android 7.1.2), LineageOS API level: Guava (7), но вместо ландшафта отображается чернота.
Too much randomization in the wrong areas. Utilizing the identical cannon firing setup will yield different results regardless if the wind changes or stays the same.
No tutorial. No background music/ambient noise. Lastly, the cannonballs flight path only shows on mission 1. After that, its guesswork against an AI that knows the path. Otherwise could easily be 5star game if fixed my gripes.
I hate this game the AI is too overpowered they hit every shot I got a new phone recently because I snapped my old phone in half because I was in rage so make the AI a little less accurate for the love of god
Physics are way off. Shoot the same way 5 times in a row and the ball goes in 5 completely different places. Very lame.
Great idea but this game is just inconsistent even when taking into consideration the wind speed. Also why is the computer canon always resetting?
I had hope that this game was like the old cannon game from a long time ago, it is not. The wind makes this a game of chance, it isn't implemented very well so you can't really build skill in using your cannon. I though being able to target resources would add another dynamic but it falls short as well. When the enemy can buy everything they need to fire their cannon every round it makes no difference to blow up their resources. About the only good thing about this game is the permissions don't suck.
Not really sure what the flags are for, also, wind speeds not accurate. Its fun to play, but once u beat campaign, its over. Online mode freezes...
Adjust your shot doesn't make sense. Adding power will make your next shot come up short of the previous one sometimes or vice versa
If you came here for the online multiplayer aspect, don't waste your time. I tested several online games with other players, and one you take your turn, you'll be there forever waiting. I timed a few games. Waited 3, 5, and close to 10 minutes with the opposite player never taking his turn. If you're seeking the campaign to play against the AI, you might enjoy it for about 5 minutes. Seems like it has potential, but it's a dud game as of right now.
It would be better if you got the tracer thing that's in the beginning in all levels because you dont know where you are shooting at all.
Not too bad of a game, but not one of my favorites. My flag keeps spawning RIGHT in front of my own cannon, so I have to shoot through it and buy a new one every time. Seems like it shouldn't happen that way.
Get rid of the mountain in the middle and ill play it more...or have a new game mode that gets rid of the mountain...
Didn't realize the importance of the flag for a while but once I figured it out I could almost perfectly correct for wind on every shot. To all those negative comments about accuracy, practice some more. Now hard AI is too easy. Just needs a longer campaign. Maybe a storyline?
As most games the computer has a major advantage. Not sure if it is a glitch or what but my wind flag disappeared every round even though it wasn't hit.
For me, its addicted and fun to play. Its didnt require internet conection. And for those who said only comp get to play. Actually click the cannon to adjust first then click the cannon again to fire.
Without the wind changing the game randomly changes where the cannonball impacts. Sad, since its a good game but cheats
This game sucks. The wind, I guess constantly changes. Thats the only reason I can think of that no two shots land in the same place with the same settings. It's impossible to aim.
Not a bad game, not sure why first player tends to have less protection/money/supplies than second player.
Almost nonfuctional on my phone w/Android 4.0.4. Back Canon won't activate, controls work randomly & same for the wind meter. It's small, but hey, I've got 4 others even smaller that work! 2 Stars.
Absolute trash. The controls and wind gauge don't work half the time. Take your game down and just go out of business.
