Is Florida Simulator 1986 worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Players who want short, offbeat hunting action in a retro Florida setting
- Fans of deliberately simple games with hidden narrative details
- Players who enjoy humorous alligator encounters and unusual presentation
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking complex hunting systems or highly capable enemy behavior may hit a wall at the intentionally poor AI.
- Players wanting a broad, replay-focused campaign may stop at the straightforward hunt-and-clear structure.
- Players looking for a serious simulation may bounce off the stylized alligators, comic tone, and exaggerated premise.
Our take on Florida Simulator 1986
The bounce point arrives when the alligators begin reacting: the intentionally poor AI is a central part of the experience, not a minor rough edge. Players expecting tactical pursuit or credible wildlife behavior may lose interest there, even if the 1980s setting and hidden story remain appealing.
What is Florida Simulator 1986?
Play as Kevin, an alligator hunter working through a hot Florida summer in 1986.
The game sends players across golf courses, beaches, and wooded areas to hunt aggressive alligators with firearms. Its presentation combines a retro 1980s setting with a synth soundtrack, phone-call cutscenes, and a deliberately simple style. The game also includes a backstory concealed beneath its straightforward premise, along with intentionally inept enemy AI and stylized, cute alligators. The vendor mentions possible future post-story levels and community-driven events, including interest in speedrunning and plot decoding, but these are stated plans rather than current features.
