  • Basic rules
    • Shoot as many moving targets onscreen before the timer runs out.
      • Most of the things onscreen you can shoot have a target on them. These include dragon boats, ducks, and ponies.
      • Actual targets (bullseyes, including one that look like eyes) appear from the rear. They come and go fairly quickly, so shoot at them as fast as you can,.
    • Not everything that passes onscreen is something you should shoot.
      • Those without targets should be avoided.
    • You have 120 seconds (2 minutes) to shoot as many targets as you can.
      • If you play quickly and smartly you will likely run out of ammo before you run out of time.
    • You only have a limited number of bullets.
      • You start with a full round of 5 bullets.
      • Hit the reload pack to gain up to 5 more bullets.
        • The reload pack has a number indicating how many bullet reloads you have left.
        • At the start of the game, your reload pack has 50 bullets.
        • You have a total of 55 bullets to shoot, counting the initial 5.
      • Run out of bullets and the game ends.
  • Scoring
    • You earn points based on the target you shoot.
      • Ducks are worth 10 points.
      • Horses are worth 15 points.
      • Bullseyes, actual eyes targets, and dragon boat targets are worth 20 points.
    • You lose points by shooting at the wrong targets.
      • Unmarked ducks cost you -15 points.
      • Unmarked horses cost you -40 points.
    • You can view your best score on the game over screen and on the top left corner of the welcome screen.
  • Tips
    • You can reload at any time & do not need to wait until you are out of ammo to reload.
    • Dragon boats are great to target because you can make many shots in a row as they carry about a half-dozen targets on them.
    • Animals flow up and down with the tide.
      • Ensure the target is visible when you shoot & does not get obscured by the tide or another animal.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like simple target practice games.
    • While players shoot a gun in this game it is obviously a toy gun and no blood is shown when targets are hit.
  • Other than the above the game has no adult themed content.
