The game is a simple and entertaining option for kids, providing a casual gaming experience.
The music is relaxing and pleasant, adding a nice touch to the gameplay.
For a low price, it offers a decent amount of content with 60 levels, making it a potential time-waster.

The game suffers from poor design, including unrealistic bow movement and low-quality textures.
