Hunt and Hook: Frontier is out now with a jam-packed package of hunting action

• Hunt and Hook: Frontier is out now on iOS and Android
• Experience an authentic, yet arcade-style, fun-filled hunting experience
• Hook fish out on the open seas or bag realistic animals out on the range

Hunting is something of a controversial pastime. And you could write an essay (in fact, many people already have) about the conflict between nature conservation and the 'circle of life'. So, why not take the controversy out of it and try something a lot drier, safer and more convenient? Like Hunt and Hook: Frontier?

Yes, those who're squeamish won't need to harm any real animals, and those of you who have friends and family who would rather you didn't head out to the woods or on the ocean for days at a time can enjoy all the fun of hunting in the palm of your hand!

And Hunt and Hook: Frontier is suitably ambitious. Combining the outdoors shooting of Wild America, and a full-on fishing experience. Whether you're bringing down deer between the pines or hooking swordfish on the high seas, you're practically right there with rifle or rod in hand!

Dangerous Hunts

Admittedly, Hunt and Hook: Frontier may not appeal to the purists out there. This is very much a more arcadey experience. But at the same time, for what you can fit onto mobile, this is very comprehensive, and you'll have plenty of real-life animals to bag. You'll even be able to customise your loadout using a series of gear and cards to make your own personal hunting style.

At the same time, don't expect to be exploring a wide open world, which is probably for the better, considering that it would probably melt the most powerful PC, let alone a phone. Still, if you need that kick of hunting action, then maybe Hunt and Hook: Frontier is worth a look.

Still got an itchy trigger finger? Well, why not dig into our list of the best shooting games for Android to experience all the high-octane action to be had on the handheld platform?
