A classic arcade-style action game where the player controls a mother pig protecting her piglets from wolves using a bow and arrow.
Opens the game player in a new browser tab.
In Pooyan, you control a mother pig at the bottom of the screen, defending her piglets from wolves descending on balloons. Your primary weapon is a bow and arrow, which you can aim upwards to shoot the wolves before they reach the bottom.
Wolves will either try to land on your platform or drop rocks to crush you. You must time your shots carefully, as arrows travel slowly and you have limited ammunition.
A key strategy is to shoot the ropes holding the rocks, causing them to fall and eliminate any wolves below. As you progress, the wolves descend faster and in greater numbers, increasing the challenge.
Focus on clearing wolves methodically and prioritize shooting rocks when multiple wolves are clustered together to maximize your efficiency and survive longer.
If the keyboard does not respond, click the game screen first and check the actual key mappings in the player controls. Arrow keys scrolling the page can mean the game does not have input focus.
On a phone, check whether the player provides touch buttons. Try landscape or fullscreen if the controls are too small. After connecting a gamepad, press a button with the game focused and check whether the player recognizes it.
For a black screen or a stalled load, wait briefly before using Reload player or Browse games in the embedded player or play page. Reloading restarts the player and may lose unsaved progress. If no save option is available, do not rely on refreshing to preserve progress.
