** Fox Hunt **
**************
Fox Hunt was released on both the PC and Playstation (the first one). It plays
like them 3DO or Sega CD games with many videos and some little interaction.
The quality of the videos is rather poor but you can enjoy it. It comes on
three disks but the compression rate is just so bad. Rob Lowe stars in this
before he got famous and it's very funny if you know what to expect. If you
think this is some serious spy thriller then you are out of luck. It is more a
Naked Gun for spy thrillers (and I don't mean that lame Spy Hard! movie).

* Walkthrough *
***************
When you are in your apartment at the start of the game, grab the keys from
inside the chair and the video book in plain sight. You don't have all day to
complete this so be quick. In the next video, make sure you know which window
was used as an escape route.
Flower Shop: Use the computer to move on; this will also occur if you hang
around for too long.
Back at your apartment, pick up the knife and the bullet on the table. When you
have an encounter with Freddie you can escape through the same window he did
earlier else no good.
You are now in the hospital. From the third floor, proceed to the first
T-junction and then turn left, continuing along until you find an elevator.
On the second floor, turn right first chance you get and then continue straight
to the next elevator. First floor, go straight at first, then turn right and
left next until you find the exit. If you play the game on 'Strategy Mode' then
you the floors are different.
Check out the nearby vacation poster and remember how many huts there are in it
for later. Enter the Express shop.
What happens next is different depending on the events from earlier. You will
either end up in Las Vegas or in Aspen.
Las Vegas:
Fighting with show-girls is easy. Just block for the first two, then punch the
third one once and defeat her with kicks. The last one is once again defeated
by just blocking (weird right?). It takes some getting used to the timing for
the blocks. Enter the Express shop to leave Las Vegas.
Aspen:
You remembered the huts right? Go to the number (i.e. 4 huts go find ski hut
no.4). A ski game stars. You must go through the gates without missing too many
(unless you play on 'Strategy Mode'). Enter the Express shop.
In Vegas, quickly find the bullet (in a bra), blue feather (random) and if you
can, a knife. The knife is in a red book hidden by panties. Time is against you
but you can reset it by going up the ladder behind the curtains. Grab the
chip up the ladder and continue to a whole rack of chips. Move them to find
some powder, then move the powder for a clue.
When you play Blackjack, check the video book and watch the guy's actions. The
first two hands are part of the tutorial but there are no hints for the third
one. If Wolf does the same as the guy in the video then you want to pick a
card, else stand. You win!
Fighting again, this time it's actually difficult. To beat the Alans you must
block his swings and then punch/kick when he just waits around. The other guys
are not as tough so you should be ok. Use flurries and round-house kicks as
well as leg sweeps.
Next up you have to play Fox Hunt, I mean, another Fox Hunt. Actually you are
duck hunting so do not shoot the foxes in the game.
During the chase, always shoot the goons (what goons? - hired goons) ahead. It
takes some clever approach in the tubes to get behind the guys, else they will
shoot you from the back - not good. Look down a tube to see which way the guy
is going, then follow him and shoot his back. Yeah, Jack is a ruthless B.
Eventually you will have caught up with the evil-doer...to avoid spoiling the
ending for you haha.
