LONG SHOT
Last checked · Checked against the development build
How do you play LONG SHOT in RISK IT!?
Lock the swinging aim, then lock the power, and the cannon fires you along that exact arc. Land inside a ring to win: the near ring is worth 100 points, the middle 250 and the far one 500, and landing within 3 studs of a ring's centre is a bullseye worth double. Miss and you splash down in the net.

How it plays
You stand by a cannon at the island's edge, with three target rings floating out over the void. Step one: an aim needle swings left and right; press LOCK AIM. Step two: a power needle sweeps; press FIRE!. You're placed in the muzzle and launched.
Both meters have pink tick marks labelled with each ring's points, showing exactly where that ring is in aim and power. Line both needles up on the same ring's ticks.
Scoring
| Ring | Distance | Points | Bullseye |
|---|---|---|---|
| Near | 52 studs | 100 | 200 |
| Middle | 80 studs | 250 | 500 |
| Far | 108 studs | 500 | 1,000 |
A bullseye on the middle ring (500 points) already earns gold. The landing point is calculated exactly on the server the moment you fire, and your flight follows that arc.
Wins fly too
LONG SHOT is the one challenge where winning also sends you flying. On a hit you stick the landing on the ring, the confetti goes off, and then you're returned to the pad. A miss lands you in the net far below (MISSED, SPLASHDOWN, AIR BALL).
