Deer Drive Doesn’t Have Much Driving

I honestly had no idea what this game would be about, however the name lead me to believe maybe I could hop on deer and shout “Deer me!” because y’know puns.

So, story? No. It doesn’t have one, this is a classic arcade style shooter, and I mean it’s very close. To the point that the game pretty much cheats to make sure you lose! Woo. You can upload your scores to the leader boards, but I seem to only get 404 errors! It’s likely this is an issue with my firewall or something though. If it’s an actual error I’m confident they will fix it in time.

The first person shooter game has pretty standards graphics but you don’t expect cutting edge graphics for one of these games. The idea of the game is pretty simple: shoot most things – deer, bears, moose and even squirrels! But not female deer, because they’re lame or something.

So the game is pretty fast paced, you only really get a break between rounds when it’s telling you how awful you are (Giving you a score and your accuracy).

There’s around 20 rounds I think, but honestly I never made it beyond 10. The game tells me my ammo supply is “Near endless” which makes me believe it can actually run out at some point. But I can’t say that happened to me!

You can get various upgrades, such as rifles that have more bullets per clip and shades that give you super zoom in powers, well not that super, but you zoom in.

So all in all, Deer Drive is pretty average but just good simple fun. It also has two modes, one is single play and the other “Party mode” is multiplayer, you just take turns.

You can download the game for $20 right here (Also has free trial!)
