Narrow One
Although the modern era offers a lot of conveniences that we'd be hard-pressed to give up, it can be exciting to experience the past through games like Narrow One. This is a competitive online multiplayer game where everyone is an archer. This is the pinnacle of ranged fighting at the time and every shot needs to count because you can only hold so many arrows at once. The game moves fast with kills and deaths coming just as fast. It may take some time to get used to the movement and arcs of the arrows, but you'll have to if you want your opponents to get the point.
About Narrow One
There's quite a collection of medieval multiplayer games and they're all realistically clunky just like you'd expect such combat to be. As such, this game is quite refreshing since everything moves quickly as archers are supposed to on the field of battle. The fields are large with a variety of structures, levels, and vantage points to navigate and line up shots. There are subtleties to master in order to become the best archer you can be. It's easy to jump into a game so practice as much as you want to sharpen your eyes and arrows so that you can properly take a bow.

Narrow One is FPS with bows and arrows controlled via the mouse and keyboard.

Tips and TricksThis is a very quick and sharp game with a lot of short movement and precise turns to take some time to adjust to the response time. Since most of the bows are standard, practice shots to see how arrows fly and drop off. Crossbows have much straighter shots but tend to have much longer reload times.
