You are given the opportunity to emulate big game hunting in four diverse 3D environmental landscapes, each covering approximately a two square mile area. Played from a first-person perspective with a full range of movement, you'll stalk and be stalked by seven of the biggest and most dangerous members of the cat family on Earth. Depending on which of the four environments you choose for your hunt, you'll find lions, tigers, panthers, cheetahs, mountain lions, jaguars and leopards. Each is unique in appearance and has been programmed by the designers to emulate their real life counterparts in terms of behavior, territoriality, attributes, demeanor and aggressiveness. Jaguars and leopards hide within the rocky maze-like confines of steep slopes in a South American hunting arena while a North American private reserve offers snow covered ridges where deadly red-hued mountain lions guard their territory. The rolling grass savannas of an African Game Preserve set the stage for the see-and-be-seen hunts of lions and cheetahs, where you can become the hunted as well as the hunter. Finally, the dark and foreboding environment of an Asian jungle offers the opportunity to confront tigers and panthers. Nearly all aspects of actual big cat hunting are incorporated in the gameplay. An array of tools, techniques and equipment is available for you to learn about, master and utilize while on your hunting trips. Some of the features include camouflage, scent masking, proper weaponry, scopes, bait, wind considerations, location and binoculars. The game has eight weapons from which to choose, including one handgun (.45 caliber), two rifles (9mm and 30-30 lever-action), two shotguns (lightweight smoothbore and .049 Side-by-Side) and three types of bows (crossbow, longbow, compound bow). |
