Stick Archer is a turn-based archery duel game with stick figures standing on rolling green hills. You and a rival archer take turns firing arrows across the valley. Drag back to set the angle and power, check the wind flag, and let go. A body hit deals solid damage, but a headshot does twice as much and earns bonus points. Knock out a rival and they vanish in a puff of smoke, then a tougher opponent steps up who aims better and stands farther away. Beat all 12 to become champion.
How to play
- Drag backwards from anywhere on the screen to aim, like pulling a bowstring.
- The longer the drag, the stronger the shot; the dotted line shows the start of the arc.
- Release to shoot; then your rival fires back on their turn.
- Watch the wind indicator and adjust for it.
- Reduce the rival's health bar to zero to win the duel and face the next archer.

Tips
- Headshots deal double damage and give 50 bonus points.
- The wind changes every turn, so check the flag before each shot.
- You regain some health after each win, so a quick knockout keeps you strong for later rivals.
Questions
- How many opponents are there?
- There are 12 rival archers. Each one has more health, better aim and stands farther away, and the wind gets stronger as you go.
- Is there any blood?
- No. Arrows simply stick, and a defeated archer disappears in a cartoon puff of smoke.
