Shot Factor

In the game "Shot Factor", you protect your home turf using a custom-made blaster. Things don't stay quiet for long — many unwelcome foes show up, and it's up to you to handle them. What sets this game apart? You get to tweak your own weapon before each round. Stack number boosters onto your gun and build up the firepower you need to face swarms of invaders. When each enemy has a number right on them telling you how many shots they can take, planning your attacks becomes its own kind of puzzle.

How to play?

From the start, your gun shoots just a single bullet, but you don't have to settle for that. Slide different number modules — like +2 or x3 — onto your weapon. Each one bumps up the bullet count or changes things differently. For example, if you first stick a +2 on your gun and then multiply it by x3, suddenly you're blasting six bullets at once. Enter each level, line up your aim, and fire away. Check the numbers stamped on your opponents — you must hit them exactly that many times to take them down. Some enemies have weak spots, so look for those and try to tag them for quicker wins. If a mission gets too tough and you lose, no big deal. You'll still earn coins, which you can trade in for new gun upgrades and even more powerful modules. The more creative you get building your weapon, the better chance you have at clearing out every last enemy, including those sneaky helicopters flying overhead.
