Play Hunter Killer Online

Game Overview

Hunter Killer on the Amiga is one of those games that looks simple at first—just a tiny submarine dodging mines and shooting enemy ships—but it gets intense fast. The controls are tight, and the chunky pixel explosions when you nail a torpedo hit never get old. I remember spending way too much time trying to thread between mines without scraping the hull, only to panic when a destroyer suddenly appears on the sonar.

The sound design is minimal but effective—that deep ping of the sonar still sticks in my head. And the later levels? Brutal. You’ll be weaving through narrow trenches while dodging depth charges, wondering how your little sub hasn’t imploded yet. It’s the kind of game where you lose track of time because “just one more try” turns into twenty.

If you’ve got an Amiga or an emulator, this one’s a solid pick for some old-school tension.
