Daniel Ángel Romero Senior editor

The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 1.6

WolfQuest 1.6.3 is a 3D game where you live the life of a wolf.

So, your goals will be those of a real wolf: find a mate, hunt for leaving, take care of your children, find shelter, etc.

At the beginning of the game you can customize the wolf you will impersonate, by choosing a hair color.

The game will be controlled by the keyboard and the mouse.

The keyboard will let you control the movement of your character (moving back, forward, right, left), its actions (walk, trot, byte, jump, howl), and will let you access some program controls (Scent View, Map, Options, Help). The mouse will allow movements (by moving the mouse) and byte (left button).

WolfQuest will assign you goals, that you must complete in order to progress in the game.

Your wolf will be part of a pack with other computer controlled wolves and will have to learn to survive in the wild, facing the challenges of the environment.

The game will aid your wolf with a compass that will show it where to find elks for hunting or your objective.

Pros

It´s a very entertaining and educational game, with nice sound and graphics.

Cons

None.

What's new in version 2.5

1. Winter!
Wolves start preparing for pups before the snows have melted, and now WolfQuest represents this reality. You'll start Slough Creek in March, with late winter snows still covering the ground.
2.Weather!
It's not always 75 degrees and sunny in Yellowstone. WolfQuest 2.5 adds snow, rain, thunder and lightning. You'll find that prey scent trails are muffled by rain. Note that weather effects can slow down the game on some computers, so you can always turn them off. Just go to Options: Game Settings and click on the Weather Effects toggle.
3.Changing Time of Day!
Time passes for wolves just as it does for people — but in WolfQuest, you can control it! Press Z to go to sleep, choosing when to wake up: daytime, dusk, midnight, or dawn. (In Multiplayer, Time of Day is set initially by the game host and cannot be changed later.)
4.Rest and Sleep!
Give your wolf a rest by pressing the R key, and R again to lay down. Go to sleep by pressing the Z key — and then decide how long you want to sleep.
5.Phrase Chat!
A new option for multiplayer games, Phrase Chat limits all chat to canned words and phrases. You can construct sentences by selecting them one after another, then click Send. There are over 100 phrases available for safe, fun chatting for players of all ages.
