I was aware of this game, how bad and buggy it is, so I thought I will try it myself and have a laugh... however I didn't expect that the developers in 2022 fixed some things to make the game better.

First of all I want to mention that on occasion, Hunt Down the Freeman looks pretty good for its times. Also some of the ideas like the inventory system, parkour mode are good additions, The fixes by the developers makes the game more bearable: they either simplified certain parts to make them easy to understand and what to do or eased up the difficulty. I think it's cool that they gave it a go to fix some stuff. HDTF has some fun moments, which is coming from it's non-serious moments

However, even though the game is somewhat playable, it's still not a great game. The game still has maps which are useless to even existing, a lot of times I didn't know where to go, a lot of parts where the player has to run away from fights because the game sends enemies infinitely. The story does not make too much sense, most of the time even the maps have some plot holes and you just get to one place. There are some cringeworthy moments in the cutscenes, a handful of times where the cutscenes have the same dramatictrack.mp3 song which is okay sounding, but it just gets old. Crosshair is barely visible, games can freeze and crash a lot of times, characters can get stuck into scripts and you have no idea what to do.

Did the fixes help the game? They did. Is it any good? Not at all. Back then the game was infamous for it's bad traits, now the game has become a low mediocre something, which occasionally can be fun. I can't recommend it at all, although if someone is that interested, you can buy it when the game is like 3€ or smth like that.

there is a achivement for cheating and refunding the game by the way the only reason why i like this game also you can aim in the game with almost every weapons

better than hl2 and hl1 combined
