About This Game

Narrow.One is a fast-paced 3D multiplayer archery game set in a vibrant medieval world. You join a team of archers to capture the enemy’s flag while defending your own in intense capture-the-flag battles. Armed with a bow and arrows, plus melee weapons for close combat, you navigate 15 beautifully designed maps, from castles to jungles, each with secret shortcuts and strategic vantage points. The game offers six unique archer classes, extensive character customization, and a skill-based Elo rating system to match players fairly. With low-poly graphics, dynamic gameplay, and cooperative team action, Narrow.One is perfect for action enthusiasts, multiplayer gamers, and anyone who loves a medieval challenge. Released in April 2021, it’s a standout for its blend of precision, strategy, and teamwork.

How to Play

Playing Narrow.One is simple yet demands sharp aim and teamwork. Here’s how it works:

• Join a Team: Play as part of the red or blue team in 5v5 capture-the-flag matches. Your goal is to steal the enemy flag and return it to your base while protecting your own.
• Move and Shoot: Use WASD or arrow keys to move, aim with the mouse, and shoot arrows by holding and releasing the left mouse button. Sprint with Shift and jump with Spacebar for quick maneuvers.
• Choose Your Archer: Select from six classes—Scout, Assault, Sharpshooter, Runner, Support, or Defense—each with unique bows or crossbows, like the Scout’s rapid-fire short bow or the Sharpshooter’s long-range scoped bow.
• Use Melee Weapons: Switch to over 30 melee weapons for close combat when enemies get too close, adding tactical depth.
• Customize Your Look: Earn coins through matches or rewards to unlock over 200 clothing items, from armor to capes, to personalize your archer’s appearance.
• Strategize and Explore: Use secret shortcuts on 15 maps to outmaneuver foes. Stick with teammates to cover each other, balancing offense and defense. The game has no time limit per match, but the first team to capture three flags wins. Retries are instant, and an Elo rating system ensures fair matchmaking, though some players note occasional lag or melee button issues.
