Barker Bill's Trick Shooting consists of four carnival-type game modes in which the player uses a Zapper to shoot various objects with your zapper for points. The game modes consist of:
- Balloon Saloon
- The player attempts to shoot balloons flying away while avoiding hitting the dog from Duck Hunt.
- Flying Saucers
- Barker Bill and his assistant Trixie will toss plates across the screen. Shoot the plates while avoiding Bill, Trixie, and the parrot.
- Window Panes
- Assorted objects will fall down a screen full of windows, but some of the windows are closed, blocking the player's shots. He can only hit objects through open windows.
- Fun Follies
- This involves progressing through the previous three in turn followed by two additional stages:
- Trixie's Shot (first seen in stage 4)
- Trixie walks around the screen and occasionally presents coins. Shoot the coins while trying not to hit her or the parrot. After playing Trixie's Shot, the player will go to a slot machine; this is the only way to win extra chances in Fun Follies. Diamonds that the player collected in earlier stages (which do not give him extra chances in Fun Follies) allow for more winning lines and a better chance at a big prize.
- Bill's Thrills (first seen in stage 9)
- Bill will throw objects high up. They'll be coming down on Trixie. Hit them before they reach Trixie, but be careful of the parrot again.
- Failing to hit a target.
- Hitting the wrong thing (such as a person or animal).
