About Raft Wars 2
Raft Wars 2 is an exciting sequel to the beloved original Raft Wars, crafted by the talented Martijn Kunst. In this entertaining level-based shooting game, you reprise your role as a vigilant defender alongside your brother Simon. Together, your mission is to protect your hard-earned treasure against waves of adversaries, which include pirates, treasure hunters, and various sea-themed foes.
The genre lives on a single, easy-to-read score, the "one more go" effect and instant restarts. Raft Wars 2 understands that, and it shows in the first minute of play. The skills it leans on are rhythm and consistency; both improve noticeably after a few sessions.
How to play Raft Wars 2
- Start by clicking the big play button. Raft Wars 2 loads inside the frame; give it a moment, especially on a slow connection.
- Follow the on-screen prompts. The developer describes the controls like this: Mouse - Click and draw to shoot

Tips and tricks
- Look one step ahead of your character. Reacting to what is under you is too late; reacting to what is coming is exactly on time.
- Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
- Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
- Because this is a Shooting game, aim before you fire, and fire in short bursts.
