Choose a Deer Hunting Game Among Many
from:If you are looking for a computer deer hunting game, you can rest assured they come in no short supply. Some are free, while others cost a pretty penny, but all keep you in the middle of hunting season year round as you sit in front of your computer and become accustomed to using the controls and get your technique down. Let’s look at a deer hunting game or two and see what is available for your enjoyment.
Hunting Unlimited 4 – The best thing about this version is that it is more than just a deer hunting game. You can switch to different species and practice hunting other animals as well. However, even in hunting deer, you get a safe practice and can take your best shots in fifty different scenarios with any number of weapons available. You can opt for free hunt mode, or you can try a challenge. This one definitely isn’t free, but it’s worth the price!
Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2007 – This is not a true deer hunting game, as it focuses on 30 different types of fish and big game, but sponsored by one of the top fishing and hunting gear providers around, you’ll find that this 10th anniversary edition is a load of fun, geared toward the excitement and action of a hunt as opposed to truly simulated hunting activity. Also not free, this deer hunting game can be a great way to get the adrenaline flowing.
Deer Drive – This is a 3D deer hunting game that allows you to enter a wild area full of deer, moose, and other wild animals. It’s an arcade style game and pits you against all types of deer, including a few trophy sized specimens. This game is great because it focuses on deer and is available online through the publisher’s website.
ESPN Deer Hunting – To be absolutely honest, this deer hunting game is fabulous, but much of the excitement comes from the fact that it’s free. An online Flash game you can play on the ESPN website, you can choose the season, the deer stand you’ll be hunting from, and start on the path to bagging your first deer (virtually, of course). Graphics are a bit basic, but for a free Flash deer hunting game, there should be no complaints!
Deer Hunter – Unfortunately, this older deer hunting game is a bit outdated, and while there were several versions available, there have been none released of late, and the graphics can’t compare to the latest and greatest computer and video games out there. Of course, for players who like the classic games, this probably offers the best available.
