Cattle Lasso
Swing a lasso around stampeding cattle, releasing at the perfect arc to rope a bull mid-run across the prairie.
Tap to throw the rope, hold to extend swing, release at the right moment to lasso the moving target and gain speed.
One-thumb: tap to fire lasso, hold for swing, release to rope the next bull.
