Bamerang

Run through a colorful arena, throw a boomerang at your opponents and collect golden points.

“Bamerang” is a competitive party game where up to 4 people throw boomerangs at each other. The goal isn’t to eliminate all your opponents, but to collect golden objects, which look like nachos and appear on the screen periodically. A direct hit will put you out of action for a while, just like a fall into the abyss. But don’t worry, if you jump over the cliff, you’ll be put back on the playing field by an oversized hand. However, you will be shaken up and lose some points.

The first player to reach 30 points wins the round. Whoever wins three times receives the golden boomerang and is declared the overall winner. So, in “Bamerang”, you need to move skillfully across the arena, collect points as quickly as possible and prevent opponents from doing so with your boomerang. The game mechanic is minimalistic, but well thought out. Throwing your boomerang feels effortless and can be done quickly or accurately.

“Bamerang” focuses completely on the core experience. The arenas are randomly selected, there are no items and only one game mode. If you want more or do not like the art style, you should take a look at “Boomerang Fu” instead—it has a very similar concept. For everyone else, “Bamerang” is an intense party game with a charming atmosphere and a reasonable price.

Why you should play it:

• Intense arena battles with up to 4 players, where skillful dodging and well-aimed shots are crucial.
• Interesting graphic style with wacky animations and very nice music.
• Can be played with 2 or more people and optionally in teams.
