Now that you’ve learned how to fold your clothes like a ninja, you can start practicing your ninja shooting skills!!
Bowman is yet another fun little Flash game that pits you against an archer in a battle to the death. You control the angle and speed of your arrows, trying to hit the archer on the other side of the screen. It’s a blind shot, so you’ll have to remember the numbers that show what speed and angle your last show was, so you can hit him again the next time. Of course when you add the wind, that isn’t as easy to do so it makes the game much more challenging. You can also choose to place a wall between you and your enemy, so that you have to volley arrows over the wall to hit each other. This in combination with the wind makes the game especially difficult.
Then if you really want a challenge, turn off the index (the numbers that show your angle and speed). Those three things together make the game nearly impossible because you can’t gauge the success of your last shot in order to plan the next one.
Another trick is to block your enemies arrows by firing one while his is still in the air. Of course you still have to aim it to intercept the enemies arrow, plus you lose a turn so your enemy immediately gets to shoot again. But if you know you are about to be hit, it can be a good way to protect yourself.

I tour your website ever so often to get my education on all the apple info, when I saw “ninja shooting skills”. I had already checked out how to fold my clothes and was intrigued with that so I clicked on ninja shooting skills and ended up playing 30 minutes of bowman. That game kicks ass! When I finally shot the other guy for the first time and blood started squirting out of his neck, I just died laughing! Its the most hilarious thing! Now I play as much as I can here at work cause its the only thing that keeps me awake. Thanks for putting it on your site! ~Your Sis. P.S. Tell J “hi” for me.
