Ultimate Hunt Challenge: Turkey Demo

Hunting is quite the dangerous sport, yet it evolved from one of the oldest human occupations out there. Before farming was discovered and perfected, people hunted their food, albeit not by using automatic rifles and scopes. Even with so many advantages, it is still pretty difficult to make a kill, regardless of how powerful your weapon happens to be.

Ultimate Hunt Challenge: Turkey provides you with the chance to experience the thrill of going on a hunt without actually having to leave your house, and with minimal injury risks as well. The demo at hand only allows you to exercise your skills against turkeys, but they are tricky enough to hunt to make up for the lack of diversity when it comes to content.

The game can be played either from a first, or a third-person point of view, depending on how you prefer it. Naturally, the first-person perspective is much more useful when you have the target in sight and you want to take the shot, while the third-person camera can be handy when exploring. Regardless of what you choose, it is good to know that the option is there.

Because the in-game environments are quite large and they do not contain too many landmarks to guide yourself after, you can consult the map to find out where you are. To avoid losing your sense of direction, an on-screen compass can be used to keep your bearings. There is also a dial displaying the wind speed, which is actually useful if you want to avoid being detected by the animals.

As far as the visual quality is concerned, you should keep in mind the fact that the game is pretty old at this point. The world and most of the models are in 3D, however, so you have the freedom to move as you wish out on the map. The weapon models and the animals are pretty crude and lacking in detail, but they get the point across if you really want to get into the atmosphere.

In the end, just like real-life hunting, Ultimate Hunt Challenge: Turkey can be quite boring and dull at times, especially when you don’t seem to stumble into any animals. However, patience is rewarded and you do get to have some fun moments from time to time, although you need to take advantage of them when they come along.
