You can take out these animals if you like, although this tends to scare the real animals. Lots of secondary animals appear around the landscape - from foxes to ducks to wolves. Sneaking in for a close-in bow shot while your animals are feeding or sniping from hundreds of yards away as your prey bolts across the landscape, there are plenty of different types of hunting to do here. Each of the animals has it's own set of about 40 missions, each representing a particular skill, exercise or approach.

In all there is a good range of locations to choose from. The Moose and Grizzly Bears tend more towards wintry, mountainous landscapes.

Whitetail Deer, Mule Deer and Elk reside in traditional temperate forests and plains. You can try your hand at hunting five different species. This gives the game a pretty disjointed or disorganized feel but it's damn nice when you're stuck on a mission to go on to others and come back later. To further broaden the appeal of the game, all of the missions are available right from the start and can be completed in any order.

Your time to target is significantly reduced here and you'll occasionally find yourself in sight of your prey right at the start. Anyone who's played any of the other hunting games that came out last year will surely remember the frustration of sitting in a blind for ten minutes or following a three-mile trail of deer crap as it winds along a flowing river. Most significantly, the game makes a point of getting you closer to your prey at the start of each mission. It makes a few changes to the basic hunting game model, most of which work. All of that is simply meant to say that hunting games are fun.Īnd Hunting Unlimited by Arush Entertainment is certainly more fun than most. 54 caliber slug into a bear's eye at 200 yards and I'll show you a real game. Show me a game of Yahtzee that ends in a bear attack or a Barbie doll that can put a. Perhaps these people have mistakenly adopted the cynicism they see practiced in the wider world of PC gaming, and decided that the scorn gamers so regularly level at Barbie games and board games should be broadened to include hunting games as well.

People only pretend to dislike hunting games.
