This game is outright horrible. Apart from the epic title music, there's no other music in the game. The sound effects are minimal. The interface is unhelpful and the mission progress is baffling. The game is nearly unplayable. The most frustrating element is that the tasks are incredibly vague and difficult to locate. This game is mostly about finding small things like watches or footprints, but the graphics are so poor that these are nearly impossible to locate and the game does not make it any easier to identify. To make things worse, the game doesn't even tell you what to look for. Mission 5 involves searching for a red hat, but when you get to the area you waste time looking for a hat, but you're actually meant to find footprints that lead to the next clue area. The stamina system is unworkable. You get tired from running or riding the bike - which is fair - but there are only two ways to regain stamina: either wait, or buy energy bars. Waiting is unfeasible because you only hav...

You don't play this game free roam. You play missions that are pre determined. The gameplay is not bad....BUT You get an objective like "go find this thing" and on the map it is supposed "high-light" the location of where to start searching for said thing or person. I've played about 7 missions so far and was only able to complete 3 - 4 of them because the map location is not showing up. I really hope this gets updated...gets add-ons etc. I believe it would be a very fun simulator. As of now I cannot recommend this game because to me it seems as though it is in "Alpha" stage. From what I see this is supposedly a completed game. If this isn't alpha this it has some rather annoying bugs that need to be fixed. What I like: -Graphics. --On the fantastic setting they're beautiful. -Concept. -Gameplay. (Or what it should be) What I DON'T like: -The game does not seem to be configured for PC (Unexpected frame drops when turning etc.) -Broken Map. -The fact that the missions a...
I could find an acorn that has better qualities than this game.
Perhaps one of the worst 'simulation' games I have ever played (or attempted to play, in this instance). As another reviewer stated, the missions are exactly the same. Fail? No problem, just keep going. It's not like you'll be doing anything different anyway. I am absolutely baffled as to why I paid $11 for this - lured in by that epic starting music I suppose. I spent a good thirty minutes repeating mission three trying to find the next set of animal prints after finding the first. They don't seem to exist. Sure, there's a couple stags running around, but nothing within the ridiculous red-circle-of-searchiness you'll be chasing throughout the entirety of the missions at hand. Some woman's pocket watch? Failed. Not enough time because I was too busy riding my bike like a madwoman trying to get to another poorly-designed log cabin. Let's go chase a hat instead, shall we? Ambient sounds, music, animal design...they're all lacking, with the first two nonexistent. Enjoy the pitter-patte...
Don't buy this game. I say again Don't buy this game.
As sad as it is, the graphics and 3D affect is quite poor and some of hte missions are so limited on time that the simulator quickly become a headacke. After a hour of playing this, i started to ask myself why am i playing this... I could sigh up for a Urban Search and Rescue team and it would be more fun and less of a waste of time than this.
This is the game that made me question Steam's quality control
I kinda hurts to play
In short: terrible game. longer story: bad graphics even on "fantastic"; lagging (i have quiet a good computer, but this game manage to freeze every 10 secs for 1-2 or seconds); nothing realistic in here, which is quiet a negative point, seeing that this game calls itself an simulator. your riding on a unbelivable fast bike, loosing stamania like hell, which you than have to refill with candybars all the time. basically your just running arround from point A to B which is almost everytime highlated for you on the map, looking for baseballcaps or mp3 players lying around in the gras. this game calls himself a Rescue Simulation, but you dont even have some basic tools like a compass, a watch or binoculars. but a map, that is always showing your exact position and candy vending machines in every ranger station.
shit game not worth buying even if its on sale it doesnt even tell you what you have to do
