Set in a scrolling platform universe you control a fragile arrow shooting orb, move around using the magnets and elevators in search of the end ofArrow Mania is a new original puzzle action arcade game taking the arrow shooting genre and adding a whole lot of fun and addictive gameplay. Set in a scrolling platform universe you control a fragile arrow shooting orb, move around using the magnets and elevators in search of the end of level finish pole. Magnetizing fun, solve simple switch combination puzzles, bounce your arrows round corners, shoot hails of arrows at the bomb dropping planes, hold and aim your arrows for trickier shots, time your shots to avoid hitting the (not so) nice birds. With 30 levels to play through Arrow Mania offers many hours of fun. The early levels are nice and short, introducing elements of the game; as you progress levels increase in complexity and size. Bonus stars to be earned for beating a level in a quick time, for not losing a life and for achieving a big score. Selectable difficulty so all ages can play, kids can play on easy, adults can play on normal, and dexterous gamers can try the hard and extreme settings! The harder the difficulty setting, the more meanies, the faster the bombs drop, more lasers to dodge, more birds to avoid, the more hits it takes to down those jet planes. ? 30 levels to play through with increasing size and difficulty. ? Selectable game hardness, so all ages can play. ? One universal app, play on your iPhone and iPad. ? Retina graphics (on devices that support Retina). ? Earn the bonus stars! Languages Supported: English, Chinese (Traditional & Simplified), French (European), German, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese. ------------------------------ Hints and Tips To shoot you can do the old "pull back" on a bow and arrow finger action, or just tap with your finger. Tap under the orb and arrows will launch in the opposite direction of where you tapped. Pulling back does allow slightly quicker shooting (more arrows) but is a workout for your finger, go try it! You can play Arrow Mania with just one finger, but if you plan to beat the time for a level to get the time star you are going to need to use two fingers! One to shoot, one to press the magnet on button. On the later levels you will need to be shooting whilst moving in order to beat the time and get the bonus star. You can get the bonus stars one at a time and they accumulate - no need to beat the time, score and lives in one go; though if you can you must be a real gamer!. The stars and scores are recorded along with the difficulty you played the level on. You can go back and play the level again on a harder difficulty; compare your scores on the different difficulty settings. The harder the difficulty, the more hits planes take, the less hits the nice (!) birds take, you also get more meanies (more jets/birds/lasers). And bombs drop quicker!… Expand

    For fans of quirky puzzle-action games that balance well between requiring the spot-on and frantic shot, Arrow Mania has quite a bit in its app-confines. It holds up under either longer or shorter play sessions without much fuss, though at times the puzzles can become difficult enough that a break is warranted.
