SIR, YOU ARE BEING HUNTED (2014) REVIEW

Survival, with more tea.

PC exclusive.

Sir, You Are Being Hunted is a stealth survival game published and developed by Big Robot for the PC.

GAMEPLAY
Single player satisfying for the first few hours, although the experience may begin to dwindle on some, as the game won't change too much throughout.

The game at times can actually be a bit creepy, something plenty of these survival games somehow seem to fail at doing sometimes.


Multiplayer is pretty dumbed down from single player, and certainly doesn't hold up so well. While messing around with friends could be fun for a couple of games, the ability to only travel across a much smaller world space certainly reduces a lot of the fun from single player.

STORY
There are small tidbits here and there, nothing really to praise or critise the game for though. All you really need to know is that these small bits are not really important to the gameplay.

GRAPHICS
While perhaps not the best looking game visually, when considering the small team behind the game it would be harsh to call out the graphics too much. I was somewhat impressed with some of the designs for each robot and the way they moved around seemed satisfying.


SOUND
There isn't really much music wise, SFX the game seems alright.

VALUE FOR MONEY
Single player could take around 4 hours, the tuned down multiplayer could add a few too.


OVERALL
While it's more unique setting and fun first few hours make Sir, You Are Being Hunted appealing, the game does wear on you a bit quickly. The game is perhaps not worth full price to some people, but it's probably worth checking out when on sale for people interested.
