How to Play Bullseye

Bullseye is a free online carnival shooting gallery game. Each run lasts exactly 60 seconds. Targets appear across the shooting gallery stage at random positions — click or tap them before they shrink and disappear. The faster and smaller a duck target is when you hit it, the more points it is worth. Chain hits without missing to build a streak multiplier that can double your score at 20 consecutive hits.

There are three kinds of targets. Dark olive wooden duck silhouettes are the most common — they start large and shrink quickly, rewarding precision over speed. Gold five-pointed star targets flash on screen for a flat 5-point bonus. Red X-marked cross cards are the hazard — letting them expire is free, but clicking one costs you 3 points, freezes your aim for half a second, and wipes your streak.

Strategy Tips

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I play Bullseye?
Click or tap on the targets that appear on the carnival shooting gallery canvas. Each run lasts 60 seconds. Duck targets shrink over time and score more points the smaller they are when you hit them. Try to chain consecutive hits without missing to build up your streak multiplier. Avoid the red-X cross cards — hitting one costs 3 points and locks your input for half a second.
What are the three target types in Bullseye?
There are three kinds of targets: Duck targets (the most common, shown as dark olive wooden silhouettes) start large and shrink fast — hitting them while small earns up to 3 times the base point. Gold star targets are rarer, worth a flat 5 points each, and vanish quickly. Red cross targets look like X-marked cards — clicking one deducts 3 points, locks your aim for 0.5 seconds, and resets your streak to zero. Letting a cross expire without clicking it is always the safer play.
How does the streak multiplier work in Bullseye?
Every duck or star you hit without missing increases your streak counter by one. At a streak of 5 your multiplier rises to 1.25x, at 10 it becomes 1.5x, at 15 it reaches 1.75x, and at 20 or more you earn the maximum 2x multiplier on every hit. Clicking an empty spot on the canvas counts as a miss and resets your streak to zero, so aim carefully instead of spray-clicking. Hitting a cross target also resets the streak.
Is there a daily challenge in Bullseye?
Yes — Daily Challenge mode uses a seeded random number generator keyed to today's date, so every player around the world sees exactly the same sequence of targets in the same positions. Your first completion of the day is submitted to the leaderboard. After that, the game switches to practice mode so you can keep playing without overwriting your official daily score. A new challenge resets at midnight UTC each day.
Does Bullseye work on mobile?
Yes. The canvas is fully touch-responsive — tap targets just like you would click with a mouse. The game sets touch-action: none on the canvas so that tapping to fire does not accidentally scroll the page. The canvas scales to fit any screen width while preserving aspect ratio, so the shooting gallery looks great on both phones and tablets.
