Projectile Based Games
Games Built Around Aiming, Launching, and Impact Physics
Projectile based games are video games centered on launching objects, characters, or effects toward targets using simulated or stylized physics. Core gameplay typically involves controlling angle, power, timing, or trajectory to hit enemies, solve puzzles, or trigger chain reactions. Common mechanics include arc-based movement, ricochet effects, gravity influence, and environmental interaction. This genre appears across puzzle games, action titles, artillery-style combat games, and physics-driven sandbox experiences.
