Is there anything more epic than slaying hordes of orcs and dragons with a bow in Virtual Reality? When nothing comes to your mind, then you probably should try this. If you thought: "Of course, slaying them with my friends online in co-op mode!" then this is a matter of destiny.
BECOME AN ELVEN ASSASSIN. Take a bow and kill hundreds of enemies that want to get into the elven town and destroy it. As an elven assassin, you will make spectacular shots like long-distance headshots.
PIECE OF CAKE, THEN? Not really. The Orcs are running fast, they break into houses to hide from your arrows, and when they get furious, their massive axe is thrown to splash your head into pieces.
ASSASSIN UNITED. Up to four assassins may unite to defend the town. Communicate using voice chat, but watch your language.

Good replayability. I really like to play the archery mini-game in “The Lab”, which is not available on the Quest, so I was looking for an alternative. Elven Assassin does a great job delivering. While archery in The Lab has a certain cartoony charm, Elven Assassin is a more fun and feature-rich game. Multiplayer mode is particularly fun. While Elvin Assassin does have some flaws, I do recommend it if you like archery games.
The developers seem to be good about making regular updates. I like that the armor and bows you can buy now provide special modifiers and actually protect you. I also appreciate that you can now disallow those archers who use the cheat to shoot ridiculously fast.
The new “Rise of Darkness” DLC adds 5 new spells which goes a long way to resolving a lot of issues I had with the game not letting you feel you can meaningfully advance once you reached level 60 or so. Now it feels like there is a bit more strategy to picking spells.
This game should have a tutorial for teaching new players the basics and how to use magic. Protecting the Dwarves and escorting the elf princess provide fun environments that are sort of like a campaign though it seems like it would be straightforward to string all the different environments into a more fun bigger adventure or even let the user pick for themselves which environments to string together. I might want just want 2-3 environments if I want a shorter game or all of them if I want a long campaign. Like I might want to start at the village and if you get to level 80 you get to go to the next environment and eventually get to the level where you repel their ships off at the coast and win, but if you don’t make it to level 80 you go back to the previous environment.
An earlier update did make it possible to skip the first 30 “introductory” attack waves to start a multiplayer game at a harder starting point which was a big improvement. I wish you could also skip the first 30 levels in single-player mode as well.
I find it frustrating that when you bring up the menu while you are playing that you are not shown more about how well each player is doing. You only get such feedback when the game ends. Details like who are the best players, how many points you need to get to achieve the next level or how much money each player has won in the current game would be nice to see while playing.
It seems odd that ogres only throw an axe at you after you hit them with an arrow. They never throw an axe on their own initiative. Also odd that the snowy world does not show a single fire anywhere to keep anybody warm. In all locations, the shadows oddly never seem to jive with where the sun is located. Why don’t you ever see the villagers? You would think they would cheer the players on from time to time, say thanks or at least say something other than “They’re breaking in” in an accent that just feels out of place. But these are nitpicks.
