BULLS-EYE!! is an archery game for the IBM computer. To begin, type START at the floppy disk prompt and press Enter. Your computer must have an EGA or VGA graphics card to be able to execute this program.
Two players, Yellow and Blue, stand fifty feet from a target. Below the arrowhead is a reading of the crosswind in miles per hour. Each player will use the left and right arrows on the numeric keypad (or the 4 and 6 keys) to aim the arrow left or right, depending on the strength of the crosswind (up to 30 mph). If the wind is blowing strong from left to right, aim your arrow farther left. You also need to contend with the draft, which may be weak or strong, down or up, and is always changing. Try to be quick enough to shoot your arrow (by pressing Enter) when the draft is weak or nonexistent.
The end of the game is up to the players. You may want to play to 500 points, or each shoot 10 arrows, or any other way you’d like to play.

Another thing that really makes Bulls-eye! enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Bulls-eye!. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
