Carnival clone or shoot them ducks!

The Good
Cute arcade clone including shoot the bear intermission. Some nice touches including a short nice rendition of Entrance of the Gladiators at the intro.

The Bad
Not immediately clear what the challenges are.

The Bottom Line
But stick with it. As you discover the rules, the game becomes a nice diversion.

Shooting Arcade from DataSoft is a simplistic but addictive shoot 'em up that makes use of the "fairground shooting" formula effectively as it gradually ramps up the challenge factor in a number of interesting ways. Let's Play! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-BU7Yj5QHc

It may look simple, but the way this game gradually builds on its basic mechanics as you advance through the levels makes it very enjoyable and satisfying to play. Happy face good, sad face bad!
