STARTING A GAME
Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2011 features two modes of play – Gallery and Story
Gallery – There are three types of shooting galleries you can access: Classic Galleries, Survival Galleries, and Trek
Galleries.
 •Classic:The Classic Shooting Galleries feature arcade hunts where you shoot as many animals as you can to
obtain a high score.
 •Survival: In Survival Shooting Galleries, you fend off against waves of predators and other dangerous
animals to survive as long as you can.
 •Trek:Longer missions for higher scores!
NOTE: Earning experience in Story Mode or high scores in Gallery mode unlocks more Galleries.
Story – In the single player Story mode, you unravel the secrets of the Rainsfords, a family of hunters with a
mysterious past. The story takes place across the wilds of North America, where you’ll encounter elk, caribou,
mountain lions, wolves, and bears. Later, you’ll follow the Rainsfords in Africa seeking even bigger and more
dangerous game.
Calibration – To get the most out of your TOP SHOT ELITE controller, use the calibration function in the Controls
section of the Options menu. This will adjust the positioning and speed of the on-screen targeting reticle. In addition,
your Hunter Sense will line up more accurately to your red filter scope.
HUNTER SENSE
In Story mode, Hunter Sense is your friend. Throughout gameplay, you’ll be able to use Hunter Sense regularly
to help detect relevant, pertinent story elements. These include animal tracks, hidden predators, and exploration
rewards. If you’re using the new TOP SHOT ELITE controller, you’ll need to look through the red filter scope to get the
most out of Hunter Sense.
MULTIPLAYER
Multiplayer gameplay is available in Gallery mode as either 2 player simultaneous or 2-4 player hot seat.
Versus – For 2 players, Versus Multiplayer allows you to go head to head with a friend at the same time using two
controllers.
Hot Seat – For 2-4 players, Hot Seat Multiplayer lets you take turns with up to 3 of your friends using the same
controller.
GALLERY GAMEPLAY
•Reticle– The on-screen reticle shows where you’re currently aiming. Also, reticle changes shape depending on the
firearm you’re using.
•Score– You get a better score for harder shots. Distance shots, heartshots, headshots, and shooting special animals
will all result in a higher score.
•HighScore– This is the score to beat, the highest score you’ve racked up on this Gallery.
•BonusIndicator– Group bonuses or combo shots will show up here. Bonuses are the only way to get the really
high scores.
•Power-Ups– Power-up icons shown in the smaller, upper circle are ready to be used. Power-ups currently being
used show up in the larger, lower circle.
•Firearmselected– This icon shows you whether you’re using the rifle or the shotgun. Remember, you can also tell
by looking at your targeting reticle.
•Rounds– You have unlimited ammunition in Gallery mode, but your rifle can only hold three rounds at a time.
Your shotgun can hold two shells.
•Health– If you run out of health, the Gallery ends. This is the only way to stop a Survival Gallery.
TIPS FOR GALLERY GAMEPLAY:
• Use your shotgun for birds and your rifle for everything else. Using the wrong firearm will drop your score.
• Don’t shoot the doe! Shooting doe will drop your score.
• Reload faster by using the pump action on the TOP SHOT ELITE. Shotguns reload after every two shots, rifles reload
every three shots.
