About Cannon Attack
Cannon Attack is a fast portrait arcade shooter — aim your cannon and blast endless waves of falling circular enemies before they reach you.
Enemies get tougher as you go: bigger sizes, more health, faster falls, and shielded targets. Score points for every smash and chase your best score saved in the browser.
Grab drone drops for shields, repairs, and weapon level-ups. Survive long enough and little bosses plus spinning big bosses crash the party.
Pause any time, toggle music and SFX from the home screen, and jump straight back in with Replay after a wipeout.
Cannon Attack is a portrait auto-shooter. You only aim; the cannon fires upward on its own. Enemies are falling circles with more health, speed, and shields as the wave count rises.
Drone drops bring shields, repairs, and weapon levels. Little bosses and spinning big bosses show up if you survive long enough. Score saves in the browser.
What you do in Cannon Attack
Objective. Keep falling circular enemies off the bottom. The cannon auto-fires; you only aim.
Drag or swipe to point the barrel. Grab drone drops for shields, repairs, and weapon levels. Bosses appear if you last.
Enemies gain size, health, speed, and shields. Pause, music, and SFX sit on the home UI. Best score saves locally.
How to play Cannon Attack
Drag or swipe left and right to aim. Keep the lowest enemies off the bottom of the screen. Pause, music, and SFX live on the home and pause UI.
When a shielded target appears, focus it before a crowd of small fries leaks past. A wipeout has Replay so you can start the climb again immediately.
Weapon level-ups change how forgiving the auto-fire is. Do not ignore repair pickups to chase a far drone.
Controls

What makes Cannon Attack different
- Aim-only auto-shooter — no fire button
- Track the lowest threat, not the biggest sprite
- Drone drops are survival, not cosmetics
Tips
- Track the lowest threat, not the biggest sprite. Whatever reaches you first ends the run.
- Sweep the aim in small arcs. Wild swinging leaves a lane open.
- Grab repairs when you are actually damaged. Walking past a repair for a score orb is how bosses finish you.
- Learn the big-boss spin pattern before you dump all fire into the center. Hit the exposed phase.
Strategy
- Track the lowest enemy first. A sprite that is about to exit the bottom ends the run.
- There is no fire button. Drag the barrel and let the auto-shot work.
- Drone drops (shield, repair, weapon) are survival. Ignore them only when the lane is already clear.

Guides that mention this game
- A sensible order through the Pokii action shelf — Speed Boat, Cannon Attack, Knife Hit, Crane Stack, Cross Runner, Undead Siege, and Coil Arena use different verbs. This is the order we would give someone who tapped Action and froze.
- Undead Siege: cover, waves, and the two-thumb layout — A desert-town wave shooter on Pokii Games: shamblers, armored undead, a mutant every five waves, and a control scheme that feels broken if you treat it like a tap-to-throw arcade.
- Best Pokii Games for a five-minute break — Not every title on this site wants a campaign. These are the builds you can finish — or honestly fail — before a kettle boils, chosen from the live catalog.
