This is a great game to play if you are a hunter and ever thought that your the hunted because you never see dear but they always see you, you will laugh your butt off at this game.

Buy it and pass on a laugh, fun!

This is a simple game in learning to navigate. You're a ticked-off deer going out to hunt a plague of hunters invading your woods. You have several devices for locating these killers (comical calls, brocolli activated farts, and a sack full of lures) You can hop from one of four seasons. As you defeat a prey, you gain their weapon. The better tactics you use, the more likely you are to encounter a higher-level of hunter. But as much as you can hunt them, they are there to shoot you. And they are varied from Boozer--the bear-hat lush, to Tad---the Wall Street GPS-equipped aristocrat,--to Zeke, an A-1 sportsman. After you kill one or die, you are sent back to a cabin where you can select a new season and pick a new weapon. Good luck.

Hunting Hunters is cool...Period!

Anyone truly against the idea of hunting would appreciate this game regardless of the gameplay. Innovativeness should be held in equal esteem as asthetics. Hunting hunters is cool in my book and once you give the game a chance it's quite satisfying :)

It's about time

I received this as a gag gift since I'm not a big fan of the hunting games. In Deer Avenger, you play the first person in the form of a deer, going after stereotypical hunters. Along the way, though, you have to make sure you don't shoot any friends like the hiker or environmentalist.

There are several weapons to be used as you progress in the game, both attacking ones and attracting ones (pizza, beer, etc.) There are also 'attractive' sounds used to lure the unsuspecting hunter.

I found the graphics in this game to be a bit behind the technology although the sound is appropriate for the scenario.

Playing the game only stays interesting for the first few hunts as a typical gamer will find that this game is too easy and offeres very few twists and turns.

Installation was quick and without glitches.

So buy it as a fun gift, but don't think that it will keep the recipient busy for any lenght of time.

go kill men

Well, until Simon & Schuster comes out with a 5th "Avenger" game... I've got 'em all. I haven't played it out yet, but with what I have played this is what I see.

The environment in "Deer 3D" is a excellent evolution from the first person side-scrolling in "Deer and Deer 2". Not knowing how much previous experience that S&S has with "true" 3D environments ("Bass" is really 2D with a third person perspective) this feels like a good start with somewhat usable terrain features. With a few small beefs. Either I haven't figured it out yet, or you can't climb the trees. An obvious hunters perch. Also do the trees factor into how hard it is for the hunter to hit you? If not they should, cover and concealment after all. And one observation. Is it just me, or are there no negative elevation values on the ground? There seems to be a definite level ground or zero point and it stays at zero or goes up from there, with the very obvious hills. But nothing going down.

The weapon collection is interesting, with one suggestion. Unless I haven't pulled it off yet, there's no "one shot kills." Any of the weapons have the very real potential to do it "quick n clean" but not in the game. This may be an obvious choice by S&S to increase the difficulty, or keep it a lighthearted fun game. But the possibility of it, controlled or random, would be nice.

As with "Bass" (see my review) this is not for the serious player of RPGs or RTSGs, looking to tax their new computer or graphics card. But for those of us loyalists that were hooked by the first "Avenger" it's GREAT. The only reasons that I'm not giving it five stars I've mentioned above. With the way they're advancing, if S&S takes this concept any further. There is a possibility that the next one can compete directly with the current flock of "serious" 1st person 3D shooters.
