Everyone here RP's wolves, but have you ever tried playing in a game as one? Basically, that is what Wolf Quest does in a nut shell. You play as a wolf in the wild, and you do normal wolf stuff. Hunt, Explore, Run around a lot, meet other wolves, rinse and repeat. So, is the game worth playing?
First off, you can download Wolf Quest at www.wolfquest.org. The game is free and more importantly, very much the real deal. So no virus' and other junk. But you will need a pretty good graphics card in order to run the game properly. The actual specifications are listed on the website. I ran the game off my Alienware notebook so I had no problems, but you might want to run a system check to see if you're computer can handle the game.
Gameplay: In wolf quest, you start up by creating your own wolf. You can name it, choose a gender, choose pelt color, and stat bonus. The bonus' include Strength, Stamina, and Speed. By adjusting one, you counterbalance others. For instance, more stamina gives you less speed, and so on and so forth. Once you're satisfied, you begin the game.
Just as I said before, you play as a wolf, doing normal every day wolf stuff. Basically you are placed somewhere on the map, told to find a mate, and that's about it. The rest is up to you, and you're given free roam to go which ever way you want to go. You don't even have to complete that objective if you really don't want too. Here are some notes I made while playing the game.
Notes about Hunting
-You're life bar and food bar are the same. So if you're hungry, you're life will go down, which in turn makes you slower.
-You take damage when trying to kill something. Which I thought was kind of strange. No matter what angle you come at an elk for example, the moment you bite, both take damage.
-Killing rabbits is the only thing that won't hurt you when hunting.
-Hunting can sometimes be annoying, especially when you're not given the bite command, even though you're practically ontop of your pray.
Notes about meeting wolves
-It works like a turn based RPG. You are given actions, and so is the other wolf. You choose a comand, and he/she does the same. You go back and forth until someone submits first. That being who ever has lower health.
-I found that most wolves that I encountered, wanted to be dominant "I'm the boss", so always meet one with full health so you can establish yourself as boss first.
Random notes
-Don't mess with a bear
-Don't hunt elk by yourself, you take too much damage and don't do enough damage.

I haven't tried the online multiplayer yet, so if anyone is interested, I think it'd be really cool if we could hold an online TS pack thing on wolf quest. If you're interested, PM me or you can reach me on AIM or MSN. Hope this review has helped out some. To me this seems like it's made for online multiplayer, single player was interesting but got kind of boring after a while.
