Flock-Free Aiming
Read the crowd before every shot
King Bacon vs Vegans sends waves of attackers toward your village while harmless chickens wander through the same crowd. You shoot the vegans before they close in, and you must never hit a bird, because a stray shot at a chicken counts against you. Telling the two apart at a glance is the opening skill, and the waves only get busier as the run goes on.
Tell the flock from the vegans first
Spend the first wave watching how each type moves before you shoot at all, because the whole game turns on telling vegans from birds at a glance. Notice how the walkers pace the lane and how the chickens drift through the middle of the action. Once the distinction is automatic, every wave becomes a simple filtering task with a steady rhythm of aim, check, and fire.
Clear the closest threat while the flock passes
Attackers at your door damage the village, while distant ones rarely reach it, so the safest priority is the nearest vegan in front of you. Work outward from the front of the wave instead of spraying the whole screen, because every hit removes one threat heading your way. A clear front line also keeps fewer easy targets for the birds to drift behind, which protects the run twice over.
Hold your fire through the mixed waves
The chickens are always somewhere in the crowd, and the shot that ends a run is usually fired at a bird hiding behind the target you chased. When a group is tightly packed, wait a beat for the separation instead of squeezing off a risky shot. Restraint here is not hesitation; it is how you protect the village and survive the busier waves that follow.
Birds in the crowd and safe shots
What happens if I shoot a chicken?
Hitting a bird is punished even though the chickens never attack, so one stray shot can undo a wave you held clean. The fix is to watch the crowd before firing and to hold your fire whenever a chicken drifts near your aim. Patience here keeps the whole run alive.
Should I chase attackers across the screen?
No. Chasing a distant vegan usually drags your aim through the middle of the crowd, where a chicken is often standing. Hold your position, wait for the threat to come closer, clear the nearest one first, and let the far targets walk to you. A still lane is a safe lane.
Is my shot aimed where I tap?
Yes. Every shot flies to the exact point you touch, so your pointer or finger sets the aim and a tap or click fires it. That makes accuracy a matter of placement, not timing, so move your aim deliberately and fire only when the crosshair sits on a vegan with clear space around it.
Why do the waves feel harder over time?
Later waves send more attackers in tighter groups, so the crowd fills the lane faster and the chickens have less room to drift clear. The read you practiced in the opening wave carries the whole run, because the same routine of watch, choose, and fire simply has less time between targets.
How do I keep the villagers safe while aiming?
Treat the chickens as part of the wave, not as noise, and plan every shot around where they are standing. Aim at the front of the crowd, fire into the gaps between walkers, and never chase a target once a bird steps into the line of fire. A patient trigger protects the village better than a fast one.
