Description
This version of Bowman is better than all previous versions.
If you wish to play the original game, simply turn off the Wind, Wall and Fatigue features within the game settings.
This latest version has it all. It has many options which you can turn on or off depending on how challenging you want it to be.
Bowman is a highly addictive classical game. Even if you've never heard of it before, play it just once and you'll be hooked.
The object of the game is to shoot arrows at your opponent and kill them before they kill you. It's a battle against your opponent to see who can accurately judge the angle and strength of the shot to make the arrow land on your opponents body.
A head shot inflicts the most damage while a shot in the chest takes second place. Everywhere else on the opponents body inflicts less damage.
To shoot your bow, simply drag your finger across the screen and you'll be presented with a trajectory plus angle and strength (power) information. Release your finger to release the bow.
You can play Bowman against the iPhone or against a friend.
To make it even more entertaining, we have also included a bird shooting game. You'll have to shoot as many birds as you can within 3 minutes and then let your friend try the same. Hopefully, you will have shot more birds than your friend.
Thousands and thousands of people play Bowman online every day and now you can enjoy a better version of it on the iPhone. It really is highly addictive.
**Lentrica Software has also released another simple yet highly addictive game - Escapa**

Great
But please update this app.
2011-03-11
Bored
I wish I would of read the reviews before spending money on this product ... I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone not even my nan who still thinks space invaders is addictive !
2010-07-20
needs something else!
this would be a 5 star game if you could play against another ipod touch/iphone through bluetooth or wifi!
2010-02-22
Addictive!
This game is addictive yo big dog cool well man!
2010-01-13
Amazing
What a great game for only 59p WOW
2009-11-16
So worth it.
I had it when it was free. It's a good game, classic.
2009-10-25
Great for da money
Errr bluetooth multiplayer plz this would make it awsome!!!! cuz right now it's
2009-10-07
good
just like the internet one! Can't wait forr the wall and wind like the online one.
Should have wifi connection so play other people over internet. Good if they add some other things on as well....
2009-09-26
Wouldn't recomend
Boring
Repetitive
Expensive
Time waster
Too easy
Not much to do
These are only a few problems with this game and it could b alot better I really hope the update brings more activity to the game but at the moment I would not recomend it 2 anybody
2009-08-21
Average
It's okay but there's not much to it. Plenty of better apps out there.
2009-08-03
Yep
Tis cool, just needs this update that's coming up for more distances and that, because at the mo the other bowman seems to be a certain distance away that has been done before, there's no variation. Plus bird hunting is a good time waster, just needs a few changes. Cool app tho, not as addictive as some people say but still a time-waster
2009-06-30
Brilliant
5/5 brilliant game
2009-06-16
Start up pic makes me cringe!
Please change the start up up pick.
You put the arrow above the hand and hold the bow in the middle
The image is painfully incorrect
2009-05-23
Addict
You can play this game for free online, but it's challenging and highly addictive.
2009-05-19
Lame very tedious nothing likecthe comp version
Don't get it at all you will retreat it I'm sure
2009-05-11
Could be better
The arrows need to go faster it's painfully slow
2009-05-09
Bow Cack
Not much fun at all.
I had high hopes for this. I feel cheated.
2009-05-04
Good Game - Wheres the Artwork?
Artwork could not be downloaded... o_O lolwut?
Good game though.
2009-05-03
Jamjack
5 stars 10/10!!! Best game ever
2009-05-03
Until u do this it's a fail
Make the distance change every 6 shots an option. I finally get on target and the freakin distance changes every time
2009-05-02
Bowman
Great app, would be better if you had to defend yourself from waves of attack. Just an idea for the maker.
2009-05-02
Needs online!!!!!!!!!
A great game but you really need an online mode where you play against other people around the world and get higher ranks the more points you get. Like flight control. Trust me everyone will buy it!!!!
2009-05-02
Dont listen to other reviewers.....
BUY IT! whats 59p? It's an amazing game! Best app on my phone!!!
2009-05-01
Read Instructions
This is a nice little app, those of you who cant fire far enough, you need to turn the tierd setting off
2009-04-29
Terrable
You can only fire 1 arrow then after that you can't even reach them it's like he gets tired and can't fire far
2009-04-25
New update blows
Some of the update is good like health bar and highscores but my arrows are going no where when i play against iphone...
2009-04-25
Good
It's a very good game but since the new update it's gone downhill. You can't have full power on every arrow so most of the arrows don't get there. Also the opponant keeps moving which is silly in my mind
2009-04-25
Finally a good version 1.2 is amazing
Exactly what I wanted, a game that i can play whenever I am bored during university lectures!
Thanks developers, you have done an ace job.
I would give it
2009-04-24
Amazing!
Great game, but it should have online play.
2009-04-24
Update Failure
The update really changed my mind on what I thought about this game, before it was much simpler, but now everything seems confusing in this 1.2 update. Your opponent does a rubbish shot at you the first tim and those energy bars are annoying. I think turning it back would be the wise thing to do.
2009-04-24
Boring
Expensive,simple and very dull
I can't understand the current rating.
2009-04-23
Alright...
its a good game, but could the blood be improved... its just circles...
2009-04-23
Basic and boring
Even if this game was free there are much more long lasting and thoughtful games for your money instead of 1dimensional graphics and gameplay. No different levels, characters or even sound effects. Awful.
2009-04-22
What happened?
How can an update turn what was my favorite game into a pile of sh17.
Should be renamed a "downdate"
Yesterday(great) today (deleted)
2009-04-22
Got the five as promissed
Alot better now glad I got it when it was cheep
2009-04-22
Read the update!!!
This is a great app and deserves 5*s. The only reason why the arrows get decreasingly less powerful is because of the fatique setting, if you'd don't like it TURN IT OFF!!
PAY ATTENTION!!!
2009-04-22
Why?
The update will not come onto my iPhone and when I download it, it just says there is another update, I did it again and yet the update hasn't come on. Still no healthy bar. I has to delete it. This problem has to be fixed until I even consider buying the app again. Please have this problem fixed soon.
2009-04-22
Bowman!
Bowman is awesome on the pc and is awesome on the ipod as well. Keep it up developers! luv the update but can we use guns like someone else said then it would be AMAZING
2009-04-22
Archers
I actually don't want to say this but I just found that the gameplay on the free game archers is much better than on this which I paid for. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. Arrows are way to slow and not powerful. Gameplay is way to slow.
2009-04-22
Glitchy
With new update you the power of your shot constantly decreases making the game awkward to play
2009-04-20
Cool game.....
It's good but you should b able to zoom in and out to see where to hit it
2009-04-18
Good
Hiiiiiiiiii anyway I think it is a bit silly who would use a bow when they can use a frikin gun but it is an ok game:)
2009-04-18
WARNING MUST READ!!!!!!
Do not buy this app search in app store archers bowman battle free its free and better than this DO NOT BUY!!!
2009-04-18
Amazing
This is top noch
2009-04-18
Classic
This is a arcade classic don't disrespect it. :) :P
2009-04-17
Pretty dull
Dull and easy. I paid money for this (grrr)? This should really be a free application. There had better be something good in the update.
2009-04-17
GREAT
Who ever says this is bad is obviously playing a different game to me because I thought that it is great and one of the best apps I have bought in ages I would earge anyone to get this right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2009-04-16
Poor
Not sure how anyone can rate this above 1 star. Limited doesn't even begin to describe it.
2009-04-16
More boring than being bored
Awful
2009-04-16
Yay
Waited for donkeys years for this to come out on the app store and now it has it gr8 fun be nice if there was online play
2009-04-14
Played the computer version and it's wsome.
Bit upset cuz this ain't as good.
Hope update makes it better
2009-04-14
Expensive??
What the hell are u on about? A reviewer furthur down stated that a problem was that it was "expensive" we may be in a so called recession but it's only 59 bloody pence! And sure it's no console game but it's fun none the less!
2009-04-12
class
This is a class app can't wait for updates!!!!
2009-04-12
Not bad
It's solid, but a bit limited. Hopefully the updates will make this a 5 star app .. and drag me away from frikking Flight Control!
2009-04-12
Amazing
This is a very addictive game, can't wait for the update.
2009-04-10
Needs online feature
Will only survive if a good online menu comes along with stats and the ability to upgrade weapons the more points/matches you win. Have national flags and nic names. But let's be honest if we were going to get that it would of happened already.... this game screams out for such a feature.
2009-04-10
Some missing features
Good, although where are the features like killing 2 birds with one shot, shooting yourself, and bending arrows mid air with other arrows.... Perhaps in ver 2.2....
2009-04-09
Rubbish
Terrible game I played against the iPod a million times and won once there is no detail at all apart from grass a black thing in the middle of the screen whitch Im told is a bowman and red circles whitch I prosume is so post to be blood don't waste your time our money on this thing
2009-04-09
Bowtastic
Very very good, a must get in your app collection. I like the way the game plays and its 'look'.
What I would like to see is improved difficulty of Ai, wind, walls, changing enviroments/landscapes. Perhaps different types of bowmen...
The game has great potential and I'm sure when the next update comes the developers will have some brilliant additions. This is why the price now makes sense, get it! It will only improve.
4/5 - The current version needs more depth
2009-04-09
Great little app
Really addictive and great fun to play. It would really help if the GUI was improved, say more animated buttons and sharper text. But for 59p you really can't go wrong with this one!
2009-04-09
Bowman
Totally ace should buy it cant wait till update
2009-04-09
Thank you!!
Without a doubt, one of the best apps as it was one of the best web games.
Thank you!!!!
2009-04-09
Yay!!!
Loved this game on the Internet and it is finally on the app store. Had to download it when I saw it.
A must download. Download it now while it's 59p!! Gave it 4 stars untill update comes out as the new features sound awesome and will deserve my 5 stars.
2009-04-09
Cool
My favorite web game comes to iPhone! Awesome!
Great to play alone...or with sibling or friends!
2009-04-09
Good game
Played this on the net so had to buy this I e. Only 59p aswell so bargain. Update will make it better aswell. Well worth it...
2009-04-08
Very good
Not amazing but should be a lot better when the update comes out. Then it will Probably get 5*. Get it now while it's cheap.
2009-04-07
Awesome
Bought this as soon as I saw it, great game to just pick up and play. For 59p, I'd recommend this to anyone.
2009-04-07
Propa worth it!
This is such a legend game exactly like the Internet vertion but u get birdhunting aswell this is so worth 59p and u can't stop playin so addictive defo buy now!!!!!:P
2009-04-06
A bit easy!
Not bad but once you get the angles sorted out it's fairly easy to beat the iphone player. A harder option is needed on the update.
2009-04-06
Great fun
I saw my friend playing this on the PC And as soon as I saw it on here I had to get it. Really worth it. It just needs updates such as a health bar to see how you are doing
2009-04-05
Excellent
I can't stop playing this. Brill
2009-04-05
Briliant game!
Only reason I gave it 4 star is because there is no wifi multiplayer which would make it perfect great fun app to play with friends
2009-04-05
Computer version is better
This is an alright game for passing some time, but there are a few issues. For example, the arrows move too slow ( it takes ages to hit your opponent), the blood isn't as good as on the computer and it can get really frustrating!
2009-04-04
Great game
Can't stop playing it. cant wait for the free update!!
2009-04-04
Good not brilliant
Good, resembles game on pc, but arrows disappear on body after a while and no wind or wall feature. Has potential to be perfect. Maybe in the next version.
2009-03-31
Great
He is a ver good game. Its just like the one found on PC. Im glad i got this when it was FREE, all thanks to AppSniper.
2009-03-26
Great!
Awsum game used to spend hours playing it on the comp & now I can spend hours playing it on my iPhone thanks!
2009-03-25
Omg thankyou!!!!
I mustve played this game for about 3 years when I was young and now it on iPhone-I have over £120s worth of apps and this my fav! Ty!!!!! Put price up to 59p by the way
2009-03-25
Dr
