About Bowslinger
Bowslinger is a virtual reality archery game that puts a bow and arrow in your hands and challenges your abilities in a variety of single-player game modes. Practice and hone your skills until you can get top scores, or take to the playground and channel your inner William Tell with some good ol’ fashioned apple shooting. Just try not to shoot too low...
Features
- Motion-tracked archery action: Draw arrows from a quiver on your back, nock it on your bow, aim, and fire
- Multiple game modes: Test your skills in the target challenge, perfect your aim at the archery range, see how far you can get in endless mode, or juggle some apples. Or relax a bit and pop into the playground area for some low pressure fun
- Global leaderboards: Compete with players aroud to world to set the highest scores
- Scaling difficulty: Easy to pick up, hard to master - just like real archery
- Spectator friendly: Use the in-game camcorder to engage your friends and family or online audience. Don’t forget to try sticking the camera on an arrow!

How to play 'Bowslinger' correctly. Step 1 - Uninstall 'Bowslinger' Step 2 - Install 'The Lab' for FREE Step 3 - Play 'The Lab's bow mini-game Step 4 - Feel ripped off for paying $10 for less of a game than Valve's FREE minigame. Seriously, this game forgot to include the game. It has several modes. All of which are boring. Shoot stationary targets within a time limit; shoot stationary targets without a time limit; shoot an arrow at an apple repeatedly, and shoot ONE stationary target lots of times. There is no real GAME here. You have the protential in a VR game to throw in some random crazy fun stuff, and you didnt. Archery is fun. I know this because i do archery IRL and its great. This really isnt. You cant even enjoy attempting to master it as the controls are terribly poor. Overly complex given the simplistic nature of 'Bowslinger', meaning you miss fire or fail to load your bow far too often. Given the potential of the medium, this is just massively underwhelming and the bearest excuse of a game. If you want bow and arrow goodness use 'The Lab' or for gun and fun shooty goodness, have a look at VR Skeet, also free on Steam, and is able of how make stuff fun and entertain…3 found this helpful
Fun little bowshooting game for 5 bucks i think it's worth it. There's not much to it, could be a lot more content. However, again for 5 bucks, and one of the first experiences to VR. I would have to say it's a good. fun thing to show friends/family.2 found this helpful
[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] [i] Note for Oculus: I had a problem on my initial start when loading game from Steam library, the game just froze on the intro screen. However, when I started game from Steam VR I experienced zero problems. I do recommend full roomscale setup, although it is possible to play with only 2 sensors [/i] I'm just barely recommending this game. It's a simple archery skill game. I had fun, but I experienced everything the game has to offer in under 20 minutes. And that's mostly because there's a playground mode where you can mess around for a bit. In any event, $5 normal price for that little content is kind of steep. I think the current sale price is the correct price of $2.49 for what you're getting. The best thing about this game is the bow and arrow mechanic. It's plays almost perfectly. My nitpick is that you have to keep holding on to the trigger button to hold the bow. I liked normal mode where you pick the arrows from your back and it felt natural and smooth. So the core gameplay is very polished. There just isn't enough content. You do have static targets, moving targets, big targets, small targets, shooting ap…1 found this helpful
This is ok, just wish it was like the value one, my brother is really good at this, if you love the bow you will like this.
Quite nicely made - with a few bugs in places. Doesn't really offer you much more enjoyment than the archery game (free) in The Lab. After a few minutes of play, there isn't really much to keep you there. Twisted Arrow, Quivr and a few other of the archery games offer much more.
A fun vr archery game, has several modes to play. Overall a decent archery game having played a few.
