Locked and loaded, the thrill of the hunt comes to the Game Boy Advance in Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2005 Adventures.

Ever wanted to bag that 1,500-pound moose but just never had the trunk space to bring it home? Now size isn't an issue. Thanks to Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2005 Adventures, you can drag your trophy wherever you go. Armed with your rifle, shotgun and animal lures, you depart for the undeveloped areas of five states on the hunt for big game. Unlike the real-life experience, you don't need to worry about hunting limits, animal attacks or actually having to hoist your catch to the bed of a pickup.

During the career hunt, you must complete three challenges in each state to unlock another state. You drive to one of several hunting locations, park your truck and walk around the hunting area. If an animal is in sight, an icon appears in the bottom left. You'll press A once to bring up the target and a second time to lock on the animal. You're then taken to a close-up of your prey walking. Once it's in your sights, press A again to fire.

The B Button is used mostly to set the different lures. If you lose sight of an animal or scare it away, follow its tracks to make a second run at the animal.
