My apologies if this little game is too complicated for you.

Welcome to the wonderful world of BowWow where you as a young target must harvest a crop of sky potatoes using only a magick bow. Wow!
This game is designed to be a daily puzzle, think of it like a newspaper crossword, each day is the same game but a different puzzle.
Your aim is to score as much as you can each day in friendly competition with other players.
Even if you don't come out on top today you can still play the new puzzle tomorrow and get better over time.
Maybe some one in the in game chat will be willing to help you find some of the harder shots for today.
Each day you want to harvest the ripest fruits first, shoot the sky potatoes in order from highest (x24) to lowest (x1) for the maximum score.
Moving from tower to tower is something that should only be done as a last resort to hit a hard to shoot fruit.
Try to stay on the starting tower if you can.
Since you can play the puzzle again and again, you should first spend some time mapping the best shots.
All good shots for each tower will be automatically logged.
Only when you are happy with your logged shots should you try and combine them into the perfect order.
Click on the logs button in the top left of the screen to show or hide logged shots, these are remembered between game loads and plays.
Forget mode can be used to remove shots that you no longer want to remember.
Click on the options button in the top left of the screen for some more game options.
You can choose to turn off teleportation which can help to find the possible shots from a tower without accidentally moving.
Cleaning up the arrows can speed up the game if you have been playing for a long time.
The MP3 player is available for sound control, move the mouse into the top right hand corner to display it and choose your background music.
You may also turn the sound effects off from the options in the built in MP3 player.
We also have a built in chat! Move the mouse to the right of the screen to make it appear if it is not already there.
These annoying hints may be turned off from the in game options menu :)
Good luck and have fun!

XIXs responds:

wow

great game, i love the concept of it and the originality

XIXs responds:

this review is no good, if you don't say something insulting I have no reason to insult back?

good idea!

this is a very good idea, but I suggest that in the future you add some power-ups, or something to make each day different, this was very good though

XIXs responds:

I realize the game is too complicated, yet too simple, my bad. Hmmm, You want power ups but not end of level bosses? how strange.
