Duck Hunt Released in 1984 by Nintendo, Duck Hunt was one of the first games on
the NES platform to use the 'light gun'. The basic idea of this game is
pretty simple - you're a duck hunter armed with
a pistol and your trusty dog. You have
three shots to shoot one or two ducks each round. After ten rounds of
duck hunting (you'll probably be rather bored of shooting duck at this
point), you go to the shooting range and shoot at clay pigeons for
another ten rounds - although the dog is absent. The game is rather fun
and satisfying initially but gets old quickly. The sound effects are
pretty much what you'd expect for a game from the early 1980s - that is,
awful by todays standards - gameplay and graphics are simple - but it
remains a classic and is fun to play every once in a while. To fire your pistol click your mouse button.
