Bunkerbolt

Bunkerbolt is a cartoon base-defense shooter: keep a small soldier and his stone fort standing while alien ships and robots attack in waves, by clicking or tapping where to shoot.

How to play

1. Tap TAP TO PLAY on the loading screen and again on the start screen. Level 1 has three waves.
2. Shoot: click or tap where you want the soldier to fire. A crosshair shows the spot.
3. Reload: keep an eye on the bullet count next to the soldier and press Reload when it runs low.
4. Power-ups: the buttons on the right spend blue energy, at 20, 50 and 80, on heavier help.
5. Shop: coins buy weapons and upgrades in the shop on the start screen.

What you see on screen

• Start screen: the BUNKER BOLT sign over the fort, with the shop, trophies and credits.
• Top bar: coins, blue energy and the fort’s health.
• The battlefield: the fort on the left, the soldier in front and enemies coming from the right.
• Wave banner: the level number and which wave you are on.

Tips

• Start shooting at once. In our test, doing nothing lost level 1 after 16 seconds in all three runs.
• Aim at the enemies, not at random. Random clicks downed none, while clicking on the enemies downed 5 of the 9 in wave 1.
• Keep the green aliens off the soldier. Every run we measured ended with them piled on him, so try the power-ups when they bunch up.
• Read our base defense shooter tips for the numbers behind these tips.
