Game compared to The Hunger Games In “The Most Dangerous Game” General Zaroff can be described as a dangerous‚ cruel‚ and mean person. General Zaroff is dangerous because he kills people and he thinks it’s a game/for fun.

General Zaroff doesn’t care about their feelings and kills them anyways with no

General Zaroff is uncivilized because he does not value human life. He constantly uses others for his own enjoyment‚ with no regard for their well-being.

Ultimately Zaroff can be characterized as Mysterious and cruel. First off one way Zaroff is mysterious is he already knows who Rainsford is without ever meeting each other before. Conelle page 44‚ “It is a very great pleasure and honor to welcome Mr. Sanger Rainsford‚ the celebrated hunter‚ to my home… I am General Zaroff.” As you can see from this quote Zaroff is excited to meet Rainsford and immediately wants to get to know him better. My second reason is Zaroff acts strange in general around Rainsford

Sanger Rainsford outsmarted General Zaroff in many unique ways. At the beginning‚ he made a decoy trail that was very confusing.

The last thing Rainsford did to outsmart was very dangerous. Since he was in top physical condition‚ he jumped off a cliff into the sea to escape General Zaroff and his whole pack of dogs!

Evidence from the story shows that Zaroff considers himself civilized‚ Rainsford considers Zaroff civilized‚ and Rainsford considers himself civilized. For example‚ one reason Zaroff considers himself civilized is because he has electricity. In the text it says “Oh yes‚..

successfully outsmart General Zaroff in the manhunt? In “The Most Dangerous Game” there are multiple ways Rainsford outsmarts Zaroff but there are three main ways‚ that are my favorite.

Finally the last trap is where Rainsford ties his knife to a sapling branch with some vine. The trap didn’t kill Zaroff‚ it did kill Ivan

In order to stop this ’dangerous’ game‚ Rainsford has to kill General Zaroff
