The game is very well done. However, the tutorial could explain the mass archers and catapults better. I have no idea how to work them. I could get to Day 21 with just my crossbow, but then the targets proved too overwhelming seeing as i didn't understand how to work the archers and catapult. I also found that it was better to hit the enemy archers early as they were driving the gate percentage down. but by Day 21 there were so many of them, I was missing the footsoldiers. I find the wagons and horses a distraction. Not sure what they are meant to be doing. More explanation in the tutorial of their purpose in the game would help. My aim with the bow improved... I was glad of that. I preferred the light crossbow with the bodkin as it could do everything without having to buy other equipment. All in all i would certainly recommend this game esp. if there was more explanation of the 'enemy' provided. I think the accuracy of the bow and crossbow is as good as it can be. I'm more used to rifle shooting with a scope, so I've been learning bow/crossbow as I go along. Thanks for this game, it is fun! (one final comment...there needs to be some way to make it full screen... I could barely see what i was aiming at or where the arrows/bolts were landing...). Thanks.
The hit boxes are so annoying, so many times i have landed a perfect head shot and seen a dust cloud behind the person! It is fun, it's just that the hit boxes peeve me a little.
At least it's better than the previous two, though it would make more sense if you were on the wall with them coming straight at you.
Tip: play the tutorial so that you can buy the small crossbow before the first wave, then buy the bodkin arrow heads, then save and get the heavy crossbow, next buy the hardwood shafts and long fletchings. You could get the catapults before the shafts and feathers like I did, but the catapults didn't seem as effective as the pimped out crossbow. Either way though as long as you kill a lot of guys you should have enough money to keep the gate repaired and upgrade all the assists (archers and mead).
P.S. The archers are quite powerful when fully upgraded.
Heavy crosbow rules + catapults and rain of arrows. Yup fun game to me atleast.
