    The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their simplicity, cleanliness, and modern aesthetic, with many users highlighting the crisp visuals and appealing art style. While some players appreciate the minimalistic design as a refreshing change, others note that the graphics, though good, could benefit from more detail and variety. Overall, the visuals are considered a strong point of the game, contributing to its addictive and enjoyable gameplay experience.

    • β€œπŸ€― The graphics are crisp with clean lines, modern, and simple.”
    • β€œThe graphics are great and the gameplay is smooth.”
    • β€œI usually don't rate any games, but Big Hunter has such amazing graphics and gameplay that I had to.”
    • β€œThe worst game ever. I hit him but it bounces; the graphics are the worst. I don't even believe that there are so many 5-star reviews.”
    • β€œThis game is not worth downloading. It's laggy as heck; whenever I press a button, I get like 1fps and then immediately get killed. It's literally unplayable, and my phone is not even old. I can pretty much run very graphically demanding games with absolutely no problem.”
    • β€œGameplay gets boring the more you play. It could be improved by adding more details and features to the gameplay and graphics.”
  • monetization470 mentions

    The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads, often describing them as excessive and disruptive to gameplay. While some users appreciate the option to pay a small fee to remove ads, others feel that the game leans towards a "pay-to-win" model, requiring ad views to progress or acquire weapons. However, a segment of players also notes that the game offers a decent balance of ads and gameplay, with some finding the monetization approach reasonable compared to other mobile games.

    • β€œThe best part is that it doesn't feel like it's trying to suffocate you with in-app purchases.”
    • β€œFun, simple, and addictive, without in-app purchases or overly obnoxious monetization.”
    • β€œFinally a mobile game that doesn't charge you an arm and a leg for no ads.”
    • β€œGame is alright and fun but 100 levels of each animal, it gets boring very fast fighting the same animal 100 times. The recent update has changed everything; this game has become pay-to-win. For diamonds, see ads for coins, see ads, and can't even acquire whichever weapon we want. Have to open stupid chests before the coins. The game was simple but now you guys have made it for money-making, adding more dresses and all kinds of dumb stuff.”
    • β€œToo many ads, the game itself is fun but I'm not willing to pay to remove ads. If you're making a free game, why do you need those ads?”
    • β€œIt's impossible to win certain levels unless you upgrade your weapon, which forces you to make in-app purchases, which sucks and is frustrating.”
  • gameplay418 mentions

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating its simple mechanics and addictive nature, while others criticize it for being overly repetitive and lacking variety. Some users enjoy the challenge it presents, particularly in later levels, but find the difficulty unbalanced and frustrating at times. Overall, while the graphics and controls are often praised, the gameplay could benefit from more dynamic elements and less grind.

    • β€œSimply perfect game, I enjoy it very much. I just entered to try and I found myself playing for hours. Very enjoyable, simple controls, tap and swipe, various weapons, and I loved the difference of tactics using each weapon. Good chapters, the wearing after finishing each chapter, smooth gameplay, good graphics, and there are not many ads. Very well, continue upgrading this game! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»β€
    • β€œThe gameplay and the graphics are smooth and complement each other, minimalism at its finest.”
    • β€œThe controls and gameplay are simple but the game is so fun and addicting.”
    • β€œI am quickly losing interest due to meager rewards and repetitive gameplay.”
    • β€œUnimaginably repetitive gameplay with a little increase in the boss HP for every level.”
    • β€œThe gameplay is stretched through hundreds of same levels, became boring after 15 minutes.”
  • story285 mentions

    The game's story aspect is generally well-received, with players appreciating the engaging narratives tied to each animal and the overall concept. However, many users express frustration over the repetitive nature of the missions, particularly the lengthy 100-level arcs for each story, which can lead to boredom and difficulty in progressing. There is a strong desire for more diverse storylines and additional animals to hunt, as well as improvements to the pacing and challenge of the missions.

    • β€œLoved the concept, storyline, and 100 level opponent growth idea yet put together in a simple yet addicting trial to get to your biggest foe.”
    • β€œThe story system for each monster keeps you hooked on until you reach the next monster.”
    • β€œThe artwork, the music, the story is amazing.”
    • β€œThis is a decent game, and has incredible potential; however, the game itself does become horribly repetitive, especially considering each 'story' has 100 mandatory levels of the same task over and over again.”
    • β€œYou have to rely solely on luck to advance the story from that point on, and the game becomes tedious and rage-inducing.”
    • β€œIt's fun at first, but it's basically impossible to beat day 8 of the mammoth story.”

    • β€œThe game is really funny, but needs more improvement...”
    • β€œI like how derpy and funny it is and the background music doesn't match, which is kind of funny; overall, this game is amazing.”
    • β€œThis is dark, funny, and I guess sarcastic... amazing graphics.”
    • β€œThis game is not funny at all; it tries too hard and fails miserably.”
    • β€œThe humor feels forced and falls flat throughout the gameplay.”

    • β€œIt's amazing the music is good and the animals are splendid.”
    • β€œThe art is pretty good and the music is ok, but it's just so annoying that the mammoth dodges and blocks everything. The damage is so unbalanced; one time you can deal 110 damage, but another time you can deal 30 damage. There's so much more that's bad with this game, but you get the point: just don't play it.”
    • β€œJust a black screen with jungle music.”
    • β€œCute game, but the annoying ads keep interrupting and pausing my music.”

While some enjoy the grind as part of the gameplay, many express dissatisfaction with the lack of variety and the necessity of grinding for currency and weapons, which can feel excessive and unfair, especially at later levels. Overall, the grinding aspect is a significant point of contention, with calls for more balanced progression and alternative ways to earn resources.

    • β€œYou have to rely solely on luck to advance the story from that point on and the game becomes tedious and rage-inducing.”
    • β€œThe whole game is basically just grinding to get to the next animal.”
    • β€œIt's a grindy game and gives you about 1 minute of actual gameplay.”

    • β€œNo glitches or problems whatsoever.”
    • β€œThe game is fun when it works, but I cannot count the number of times I pull back on the screen to fire a shot and it either freezes my character in place so he dies or just makes him continue to move backwards. It is beyond frustrating.”
    • β€œSeems like a great game, but as soon as I tap a mission, it shows the story and freezes up.”
    • β€œGame is just buggy and unfair.”
  • optimization13 mentions

    The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with many players experiencing significant lag and performance issues, particularly on higher refresh rate devices and during intense gameplay moments.

Overall, there is a strong call for improvements to enhance compatibility with newer hardware and to stabilize performance.

    • β€œRuns smoothly, no problems overall, definitely recommend!”
    • β€œOther than that, the game runs smoothly and is enjoyable, nevertheless.”
    • β€œPoorly optimized, running on a 6GB Asus Max Pro, and yet when I reach level 50, the game starts to lag. Throwing a lot of spears or when the animals go crazy, it starts to stutter. The game isn't that hard; it's just not working as it should.”
    • β€œI lowered my 5-star rating to 4, then 3, as the game needs to be optimized for 120Hz phones. It runs insanely fast (twice the speed) when the screen refresh rate is set to 120Hz, so every time I want to play, I have to switch my refresh rate to 60Hz.”
    • β€œThe gameplay is so good; however, the hardest part of the game isn't the level but the constant FPS drop every time I throw stuff at the boss. Please enhance the performance overall.”
