The deer are so stupid and easy to kill if they don’t kill you first (yes, deer can kill you). The sensitivity is bad as well, I can’t even look at my surroundings. I deserve to get at least some other guns for free considering I payed money for the game, the graphics are slightly ugly, but also pretty good for a game like this. Also, there is no bullet hit animation, the animals get hit and they just run off, I usually am confused if I hit them or not. As for the pros, the game is really immersive, and the selection of equipment is very cool. The animations feel really fluid and the AI is pretty realistic, one personal pro is to hunt in my homeland, Indiana, which makes me feel good, and it’s fun. I just wish there were more maps in general. It’s better than the deer hunter classic, because it’s open world, and not hop in - hop out gameplay. Thank you! ### 3/5 — Update *2021-03-28* Add more animals like elk sheep and more places to hunt like Africa also more guns ### 3/5 — Meh *2020-11-10* I enjoy the game but there are a few things that could be fixed. One would be make it so the game isn’t always so dark. Two it would be nice if the animals were easier to find. Three make it easier to actually kill the animals. Whenever I do the deer hunt or any hunt for that matter I have to shoot the deer about twelve times before it actually dies. Four make it so the trail cams, blinds, and stands stay all the time rather than disappear after each hunt. Fifth and finally maybe add duck hunting or something instead of just quail and pheasant hunting. ### 4/5 — Great game *2020-11-05, version 1.5* I play farming USA 2 all the time and I love the game and hunting USA but add like small game like rabbit and make a wolf muzzloader those are just my things but omg great game ### 4/5 — Add *2020-10-15, version 1.5* You should add recurve or long bows and tree stand that connect to trees and Make it so the animals don’t run in make it so they walk ### 3/5 — Controls are annoying *2020-07-25* Is a good game and has great potential there is one thing can you add better touch controls the controls are really annoying ### 2/5 — Sensitivity *2020-07-01* The aim sensitivity is way to slow to shoot birds ### 2/5 — 👎👎👎👎👎😡 *2020-04-18, version 1.5* The game is bad, the birds are very few, and there is only one round. There are only 6 birds, the artificial intelligence of the dog that accompanies you is bad, the deer are rare, and the world of the map is giant, but the animals are almost non-existent (I advise not to buy and badly it is bad) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t buy this game I want my money back *2023-01-10, version 1.5* I give this a 1 star ### 1/5 — Trash game *2022-06-25* Dont listen to that other review, the games is horrible and you cant even find or kill an animal, i found one deer that i was trying to find for 30 minutes then when i did find it, it just ran and you cant kill it. They give you a shotgun like your gonna get it 10 yards by the deer but max is probably like 100, the game is terrible and graphics are not that good also the map is trash because you can it took 0 effort and work. I rate this game a 0/10 and do not recommend it. ### 1/5 — Hey *2022-02-04, version 1.5* Now u got to add the trail cams since u lied and made people waste their money for trying to get trail cams ### 1/5 — Why I did not seen no deers and how it works *2022-01-25, version 1.5* I will like me 0.99 back this game do not work how it’s is not that good come and give me my money back pls ### 1/5 — Bad game *2021-12-13, version 1.5* Worst game of hunting ever not even worth .99 cents ### 1/5 — Not worth the money!! *2021-07-14, version 1.5* I had somewhat high hopes for this game. Sure, the graphics left some to be wished for but there aren't many good hunting games. Surely it would be good, since it costs money and all. NOPE. The framerates are bad, the graphics aren't great, the controls are...SO awkward. There’s a joystick to look around, instead of the whole screen. WHYYY??! Just have it control like any other normal first-person game. I couldn't even properly play it because the controls are impossible to use. The game was obviously designed for a controller, but had to be useable by anyone, so made some bare minimum controls. This game is NOT worth the money. Based on what I know from this game, I’d expect the other games to be similar. If you're gonna get one of the farming games they made, don't. You should get Farm Simulator 20. Or don't. Whatever. ### 1/5 — Hate this game *2021-03-03* I hate it because when you try to sign in to the back up cloud it won’t let me sign in so I’m deleting this game you should do it better I’m gonna do in this game ever again ### 1/5 — Waisted money *2021-01-09, version 1.5* I walked around for over an hour in the game and didn’t see crap. Wish I wouldn’t of bought the game. ### 1/5 — Horrible game! *2020-06-24, version 1.5* No good graphics, I don’t know how to move, horrible! ### 1/5 — You need to update it. *2020-04-10, version 1.5* You need to update it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Improvements *2024-12-08, version 1.5* Hey i love this game it’s so fun and most games are 3d and I hate the backgrounds but I love this game most games do not have muzzleloaders and lever actions. The one thing you could add is turkey hunts duck hunts, and geese hunt. Love your game. Keep it up. ### 5/5 — Good *2021-05-11, version 1.5* If their was a up date add tree stands allow access to cameras to see pictures and add good plots and more guns and upgrades ### 5/5 — Awesome *2021-04-19, version 1.5* I think this is a awesome game and you should add food plots and feeders and idk how to do the trail camera’s and maybe more species and yea great game. ### 5/5 — Add more *2020-12-31, version 1.5* Can you please put a New shotgun scope today ### 5/5 — Hunting USA *2020-11-04, version 1.5* I’m not sure about corn feeders cause that’s your farming USA but could you put fishing too cause that’s hunting also and allow options like the normal just fishing added as well with the boating option-Huei ### 5/5 — Couple of things it needs *2020-10-16* One it would be nice if you could put you gun away and it would also be nice if every animal had a different look like antler size and what not and it would be nice if you could start off with more money so you could get better equipment at the start ### 5/5 — Add more *2020-03-09, version 1.5* Plz add multiplayer ### 5/5 — Please add new animals and weapons *2019-11-17, version 1.5* I would like mule deer,elk,rabbits,and squirrels. Please make it more realistic to ### 5/5 — Help *2018-12-01, version 1.5* My game does not have any animals on it help! ### 5/5 — Very good game would like more graphic updates and more shotgun cartridge options 🤪 *2018-11-28* Very good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
