Hunter Hunted is a fun side scroller that can burn off time when there is nothing else to do.
Its been a long time since I've last played this game, so the story is hard for me to remember. It takes place in the future, and Earth has been invaded by aliens, and five billion people were killed in a matter of days. You play as two people, the Hunter, Garathe Den, a minotar beast and the Hunted, a human named Jake. Garathe Den is faster and can jump higher, while Jake has a better selection of weapons. You play in the ruins of your homes, and try to survive. You have to fight many things, like floating mines, laser turrets, chameleons, bruiser (large robots) and Death (fiery demons). There are a lot of levels to battle your way through. Its a surprisingly difficult game, and it should keep you occupied for a while.
You can play single player, or you can play with one other person. You can fight each other in a selection of levels, and having either Jake or Garathe Den to be. You can also play co-op, which is very fun (the level called Death's Army is easily the funnest level in the co-op mode, maybe even the game).
The graphics and sound are old, but aren't too shabby. The backgrounds look pretty good, and the characters don't look too bad as well. There isn't a large variety of sound, but despite having not played this game in about four or five years, I still remember a lot of the sounds, from the humming of objects, to the firing of lasers, the grunting of Jake and Den, the jumping of Bruiser and the spawning of Death, the sounds are great.
Hunter Hunted isn't a game that you can play as a "main game". It's more of a game that you play when you don't feel like playing anything else, but it still does give you time to burn off. Despite that, it will be hard to get bored of Hunter Hunted.
