Manhunter is a Single Player and Multiplayer level in Dark Hour. Jason Ng designed this level after his previous map, Gauntlet, this was his second attempt at level designing. As with all of his levels, he was rather unsure as to the origin of the name of the level. Jason Ng considered this level to be similar in theme and lighting to Gauntlet. Jason intended to be rather difficult in Single Player. This level has a corrupt soundtrack directory as it searches for Track 1, which is a data track and therefore cannot be played. This level is also a standalone mission, meaning that no Level Exit exists.
In Deathmatch, it is intended for 4 players or less. There are no differences between the Single Player and Deathmatch versions of this map.
