About
You are a gray wolf in the Northern Range of Yellowstone National Park. Now dispersed from your natal pack, you're on your own – to hunt, explore, find a mate and form your own pack to raise up a new family. Can you and your little pack survive the trials of the wild?


Surviving in the wilderness is far from easy! Hone your hunting skills by practicing on animals such as elk, mule deer, and moose. Once you've grasped their differences and know your limits against your selection of prey, seek out another wolf to become your mate and form a pack together. Explore fields and forests across Yellowstone National Park while you establish a territory and choose a den. Raise your pups by feeding them and playing with them. Protect them from deadly predators who try to kill them.

Over time, your family will outgrow the need for a den and become nomadic, where you teach your pups how to catch their own prey. By next spring they will be yearlings, and test these new skills to help raise the next litter. Eventually, some will venture out on their own and disperse, just as you did all that time ago.

And the cycle repeats, year after year, until you die. The saga of your life begins and ends when you choose, be it one life only or a succession of multiple generations.
Explore realistic recreations of select locations within Yellowstone National Park. Set in the Northern Range (often referred to as "the Serengeti of North America"), where many animals roam meadows, sagebrush steppe grasslands, alpine forests, and high ridges.
But be wary – you are not the only wolf in the area. Rival packs make their home across the landscape and don't take kindly to sight-seeing intruders. Other dangers roam the lands as well – grizzly bears, cougars, and coyotes among them who will vie with you for territory and food.


Raising the bar for realistic and accurate eco-simulation gameplay, many features in the game are directly adapted from wildlife research. Our science advisors include some of the top wolf biologists in the world today, who help us keep WolfQuest accurate to real wolf biology and behavior.
Live the life of a wild wolf! Form your own pack and watch your adorable pups grow into adults and disperse, year after year, until your wolf dies. End your story on your deathbed, or select an heir to continue your legacy.
Dynamic day/night, weather and seasons immerse you into the wilderness.
Wolves communicate with each other using natural actions and vocalizations. Packmates and pups interact and play with each other. Dynamic (family-friendly) courtship interactions help find and choose a suitable mate.
A genetics system models inheritance of each wolf's genes, including eye color, physical and personality attributes, and genetic coat color.
Elk roam the lands in realistic herds, along with moose, mule deer, beavers and other prey.
Animals behave and change to the seasons. Herds migrate through the year. Bucks and bulls spar in the autumn rut and shed their antlers. Cows and does give birth and raise their own young.
Rival wolf packs maintain and protect their own territories from intruders – like you!
Bears, cougars and coyotes will challenge you for your kills and defend their own.
Optional Ironwolf Mode: Live life on the edge, where each decision counts and your death can't be taken back.
Over 100 Achievements and a variety of collectible objects hidden across the map, from shed antlers, skulls, to lost human items.
And a lot more!


Engage in Co-op Multiplayer: Raise your pups together in a group for one game year, maintain territory together against rival packs, or hang out in a sandbox without any real objective.
Live a Wolf's Life Together: Build a pack and raise pups year to year in a special 2-Player Mode, until one of you dies of old age.
Choose who joins your games by selecting if they're public to all, private to friends, or only for select individuals or in-game pack groups.

AWOOOOO
gud game
I absolutely love this game, I love how good the graphics are and how I can actually learn some facts about other animals especially the wolves. WolfQuest is a really good way to show how wild wolves in Yellowstone National park are. Despite me having many problems with running it on my desktop, I do think that it is an amazing game for those who would like to have something to do, those who want to learn, and those who enjoy the wildlife.
it is the MOST realistic game ive ever played OMG. love the aspect of yellowstone in the game. sooooo fun to play but i cant make an account because your one email thing sad face
great game, clearly theres so much passion behind it. While i love it, i personally have been struggling to actually get good at it, which could be a skill issue (lol), so if you aren't use to survival games, it might take a bit of time to get good. but yes, very very good game.
♥♥♥♥ yeah im a wolf auoooooooooooo
good game overall and awesome graphics, love the realism and the multiplayer
I absolutely love playing this game with my daughter. It reminds her a lot of "Warrior Cats" and since she loves wolves, this game has quickly become one of our favorites. One of the things she enjoys most is how realistic everything feels. For me, I really enjoy the gameplay mechanics. The wolves look beautiful, and their movements feel natural and lifelike. Could the graphics be a little better? Sure, but considering this was made by a small game studio, they've done an incredible job. The amount of detail and care put into the game is impressive. I also love that the game includes multiplayer. Being able to explore and play together with other people makes the experience even more fun, and I really appreciate that feature. I don't know a lot about wolves myself, but playing alongside my daughter has actually taught me quite a bit. She loves sharing facts about wolves while we play, which makes the experience even more special for both of us. I truly hope you continue developing this game because it has so much potential and is already amazing. One small feature I'd love to see added is a thirst or water meter. Wolves need water just like they need food, so I think it would add another layer of realism to survival. Thank you for creating such a wonderful game. It has given my daughter and me a fun way to spend time together, and we can't wait to see how it grows in the future.
I have actually played much longer then Steam believes as I had countless hours played before I moved to steam. However, I would still very highly recommend this game to people as I enjoy it greatly. I love naming the pups and seeing what coats they grow into as well as wonering who I'll pick next to lead my main pack. Absolutely amazing! (Although I would recommend having at least a half decent PC. Had a GT 730 before upgrading and although I still loved playing the game, it didnt run very well once the saga came out lol.)
