Public Land Hunter

Public Land Hunter is a retro hunting simulator where you hunt across procedurally generated maps and grow your hunting camp. You scout each area using a satellite map and signs on the ground, then choose where to set up an ambush. The maps range from fall foliage and summer clearings to sparse winter fields, giving each hunt a different scouting experience.

Track and hunt animals

Hunting calls for strategy and an understanding of animal patterns, supported by realistic deer AI. A tutorial explains these systems. Rabbits roam fields, grouse must be driven from tall grass, ducks can be called in, pigs roam the woods at night, and deer move between bedding, water and food in the early and late hours. Each animal has its own patterns and AI. The game includes rabbits, grouse, ducks, pigs and deer, with the possibility of more animals in the future.

You can fast-forward time while waiting in a treestand or hunting blind, getting to the action once you have set up an ambush.
