Overview
Description

Step into the shoes of one of six camp counselors tasked with protecting children at Camp Crystal Lake. The 2D action‑horror game pits you against the relentless Jason, who attacks cabins on a strict time limit. Survive three increasingly brutal cycles by rescuing children, battling Jason, and mastering the lake’s pathways before the nightmare ends.

Set in White Wolf's World of Darkness, Hunter: The Reckoning lets you choose from four distinct hunters—Deuce the biker, Father Cortez the chaplain, Kassandra the raver, and Samantha the ex‑cop—each with their own gritty backstory. Armed with axes, shotguns and other fearsome weapons, you fight relentless waves of monsters in fast‑paced, hack‑and‑slash combat. The game supports both solo play and split‑screen multiplayer, delivering intense cooperative action that captures the dark, horror‑filled atmosphere of the tabletop setting while offering arcade‑style thrills for up to two players on the same screen.
