Slingshot

About the game

Slingshot is a casual physics puzzle game you can play in your browser: you pull a bird back on a slingshot and let go to knock down a tower of colorful blocks. Aiming the angle and the strength of the launch is the core of the challenge.

You have 4 birds to bring down 12 blocks, arranged in 3 columns of 4. Each block hit with force is worth 100 points, so the maximum is 1200. If you destroy every block before the birds run out, the round is won. Find more brain games in the puzzle games.

How to play

1. Click the bird (or tap it) and drag back, away from the target; an elastic line shows the tension.
2. There is a limit to how far you can stretch: past it, the bird will not go any farther.
3. Release to launch; the more you stretch, the stronger and faster the flight.
4. The bird must hit the blocks with enough speed to knock them out and score 100 points each.
5. When the bird stops or leaves the screen, the next one is placed on the slingshot, until all 4 are used.

Game modes

• 1 player. One player, one round with 4 birds and 12 blocks. When it ends, the game restarts by itself after a few seconds.

Tips

• Only blocks hit by the bird at speed count; blocks that fall on their own do not score.
• Aim at the lower columns first so the tower collapses onto the other blocks and makes later shots easier.
