How to play Bastions
Each player has a cannon at their end of the map. You take turns to fire, and the first to destroy the other cannon wins.
Rules
- On your turn, pull back with your finger or mouse like a slingshot and let go. The direction is the angle, the length is the power. The + and − buttons fine-tune the shot by half a degree.
- The wind changes every turn. The arrows at the top show which way it blows and how hard.
- Each cannon has 100 health. A blast near a cannon takes more the closer it lands, and every blast digs a crater.
- Besides normal shells you have 2 heavy shells (big blast) and 2 triple shots (three shells at once). On the Archipelago, a cannon that loses its island sinks.
Tips to win
- Remember your last shot. Its trail stays on the map, so a small fix is often enough.
- In strong wind, shoot higher and softer so the wind has time to carry the shell.
- Save the heavy shell for when you already know how to hit.
