If you are successful, you will spot the deer and make the shot. Once you feel you are in the right place, you start the hunt. As you look, you may come across signs that deer have been there recently. From there you can plot your paths through the woods in search of the deer, or where you hope the deer are lurking. Once you have chosen a location to hunt, you are taken to an overhead map view that shows the lay of the land.
Once you feel you have mastered your weapon of choice, pick out a place to hunt for your prize buck: the Arkansas autumn woodlands, Colorado alpine forests, or an Indiana winter. If you are such a bad shot that you have a hard time hitting the ground, you should spend some time at the target range to practice your aim on various bullseyes and deer silhouettes. Do you want to hunt from a tree stand? How about using scent to cover up your smell or attract deer? Each option has its drawbacks and makes the hunt different. You have the choice of three weapons-rifle, shotgun, or bow-and several other tools to track and hunt the deer. But I'm convinced that it has something to do with the bright orange box that reaches deep into the male psyche and says, "Buy me!" It is marketed by WizardWorks, which offers titles at a lower price than many games, and it doesn't require the high-end equipment that others do.
I mean, there are sports sims and combat sims and even city-building sims, but a hunting sim? Who would want to do that? Apparently quite a few people do, because Deer Hunter_ has done very well for Sunstorm Interactive. When I first saw Deer Hunter in the store, I was surprised.
