When people are hosting parties and other fun events, they often overlook the potential excitement an arcade game has to bring to the table. As video games grow in popularity, arcade games continue to offer experiences most people can only get their hands on at special events or specific locales.
Today we'll discuss why a Buck Hunter arcade game rental may be just the thing to help your event pop off. Now without further delay, let's review what Big Buck Hunter Pro: Open Season has to offer!
#1: A Fantastic Light Gun Game
The Buck Hunter franchise is a series of arcade staples; the sort of machines you'll find in tons of arcades and bars around the country. People love these games.
Moreover, the staying power of the series isn't due to any strong name recognition like one might argue for something like Pac-Man and Galaga. Instead, what you've got here is just a knockout light gun game that's difficult to touch without having some fun.
The Buck Hunter series is an easy sell to guests. They get to try their hand at shooting fast-moving targets in a competitive hunting trek with friends. Even better, the peripheral is a hefty but easy-to-use shotgun design, instead of the much more common pistols you'll see with other light gun games.
There's nothing wrong with older arcade games (and we have plenty of those available for rent too) but don't overlook a more modern arcade experience.
#2: Depth Without Being Overwhelming
The Buck Hunter games are classic arcade games renowned for the many ways they can be played and the game we have on offer is no different.
You can hunt 8 North American big game animals across 24 different hunting treks! Love trophy animals? That's not 24 levels either; it's treks. In terms of the screens you can hunt through, there are 120 hunting sites and, on top of that, 24 bonus rounds for players to hunt smaller critters in for extra points.
As for the hunting mechanics themselves, players have to do more than blindly shoot. Accuracy and hit location matter if you want to try nailing the best score possible. This can be perfect for a corporate event competition and provide an opportunity for bonus games at trade shows.
#3: A Deluxe Experience
A quick look at our machine and then comparing it to its associated product page on Raw Thrills, Inc.'s website (the game's developer) will confirm that yes, it's true: we're offering the deluxe version of the game for rent.
This beast of a machine goes online for as much as $4,500 and isn't in production anymore. That's a shame too, as these are sought-after machines for more than collectors; it's a fun experience that one can't really replicate in the home.
The screen is a large 42-inches, helping players immerse themselves into the game. Combined with the IR guns that require players actually aim at their targets, there isn't much like it.
#4: Adding a Wow Factor
A lot has been said online about how to add a wow factor to events and parties. The trick, as a rule, is to show them something they will both love and didn't expect.
Most parties and events don't have arcade machines. That isn't because people don't like them; home gamers and non-gamers alike tend to love arcade games. Moreover, light gun games specifically are a fan favorite.
The staff at Willie Fun Events can handle the hard stuff. You find moving a large machine intimidating? When we say we're full service we mean it; we'll set it up where it needs to be.
All you need to do is tell us what you need and we'll make sure it happens. You and your guests get to sit back and talk about how you know how to plan a fun event.
#5: Build on a Theme (or Not!)
Know somebody interested in a hunting or video game party theme? It's a concept that appeals to plenty of folks and it's one we can help with.
You could even peek at a few more of our machines and run an event that nails the feel of a good arcade. It all depends on what you want out of your party or event!
At the same time, many places just choose to use these sorts of games for a more event-neutral appeal. That's fine too; you obviously don't need to build an entire party around an arcade machine for guests to enjoy it.
People love arcade games, whether they're building on a theme or a fun diversion. It's just worth acknowledging that games like our Buck Hunter cabinet can really pull certain party themes together.
#6: Set It and Forget It
Our company is full-service and will, of course, staff games as needed. That said, there is an appeal to being able to hands-off games like Buck Hunter.
Arcade games need very little attention once set up. Unless the machine is mistreated or power is lost, it's going to do its job for the duration of your event.
In one tight package, you have a fun game for guests. There is no cleanup between plays and the game is intuitive enough that most people don't need any explanation for how it works. In fact, the delay between when someone finishes and a new pair wants to join the hunt is almost nil.
