≠ Stands apart with sports simulation, deep simulation and survival mechanics, while skipping deep RPG systems

A hunting simulator far more patient than its arcade cousins: animals track scent and sound, and a session can be hours of walking before a single shot. That deliberate pace is the entire point. It is also free-to-play with most maps and weapons behind purchases, and the pacing will bore anyone expecting a shooter.
