Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 6.43/day in the week to Jul 24 → 6.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
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.

Hi everyone, I am coming from South Africa and worked in the Safari Industry for 15 years. This game is the best animal simulator game around. I have a lot of respect for the creators of this game, because they vigoriously researched about the ecology of the wolves before just creating a game. As someone who loves wolves, I can honestly recommend this game, you will not be dissapointed. My only hope, would be for the same creators to start making a game about the African animals in Bostwana or South Africa. :)
i know this is supposed to be a realistic ecological simulator, but my wolf deserves a gun

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 usually play shooters and car games. Never thought I'd be playing a wolf simulator. All my friends were like "wtf are you playing"
Be wolf. Find mate. Have pups. Rival wolves try to kill pups. Kill rivals. Pee on rival corpse. 10/10 game honestly
WolfQuest is honestly one of the best animal games I've EVER played. The realism, genetics system, family dynamics, and overall experience of living as a wolf are incredible. However, my biggest criticism is that I wish there was more to do. After a while, the gameplay becomes very repetitive. Most of your time is spent defending territory, hunting, and raising pups. While those are important parts of a wolf's life, wolves do so so much more than that. Wolves spend a lot of time exploring, playing, scavenging, resting, and socializing with their pack. Wolf packs are families first and hunting groups second. Maintaining those family bonds is a huge part of their lives, but in WolfQuest, social interactions feel very limited. A couple howls or play bows can instantly raise affinity, and then it's back to hunting and reinforcing territory. I also wish scavenging played a larger role. Real wolves take advantage of carcasses whenever they can, but in the game there aren't many opportunities to take over kills or find carrion. Most of the time you're hunting for yourself. None of this changes how much I enjoy WolfQuest. It's still one of my favorite games, always will be. I just think there's a lot of potential for deeper social interactions and more varied activities that would make pack life feel even more realistic and engaging.
I think my hours speak enough for itself. I HAVE A LIFE ON GOD W game it's really cool and fun and I like it uh idk what else to put W game I like it
Got this game to relax then pups existed........love the game but have never have i been less relaxed. You will become a paranoid parent. 10/10
This game goes beyond words. I strongly reccomend this game. Absolute GOLDEN use of my money, amazing graphics (if you can handle them) And the gameplay is just amazing, wonderful comunity, especially on the wolfquest wiki fandom! Great immersion, textures, gameplay, shadows, day/night cycle, honestly, I could go on for at least an hour. Ive recently gotten "Im juggling as fast as I can!" achievement and it was amazing, did I mention the INFINITE wolves, family trees, sagas, and stories as you figure out what happend to Lost River, explore the amazing new map, Tower Fall! And experience the amazing simulation that actually makes you feel like a wild wolf in YellowStone. With a cattle ranch, the grand (I cant remembur if its loop or east lol) road, an entire legal hunting area!?!? Oh yeah, dont forget the beautiful northern lights, the pesky coyoties the amazing (but dangerous!!) bison! The huge elk population, moose, summer calves/fawns, pronghorn, mule deer, dogs in Lost River, cattle, also in LR, the AMAZING collectables, the vast, vast achievements, and, drumroll please, seamless transisions beetween years! watch your pack grow, whilst keeping away eagles, bears, cougers, coyotes, lynxes (tower fall only) dogs, (LR only) and rival wolves, learn to hunt, find a mate, find a den, grow your pups, loaf around through the summer, grow some more!, and finally, teach them how to hunt, watch them disperse and form their own pack, whilst struggling to find food, or, if your more of a casual gamer, pick easy mode, where health regenerates quickly, and food goes down slowly, try to find a variety of prey, including: Beavers, snowshoe hares, elk, moose, cattle, mule deer, pronghorn, fish dropped by eagles on occasion, and bison. What about your mate? First thing, they have their own personality! Second, they will sadly die eventually, and you can find a new one! And they can have so many coats, howls, sizes, On occasion they can have collars, scratches, mangy tails, notched ears, and way more! But you can also (for roleplay reasons) kill them when you get pregnant or when pups are born and survive single. Watch your pups packs grow, contest rival wolves for territory, and food, if the rival wolves are pushing your territory to the limit, you can move to a different map, in tower fall, theres even tour busses, dont worry! They wont run you over! Or, if your feeling daring, try your luck, at the cattle ranch. There is so, so, much to do in this game! If you made it this far, thank you!!! And by the way, I havent covered HALF of the features in wolfquest, anniversary edition, also thanks to the youtuber, Siri! Pixel biologest, for getting me interested in the game. But in the end, if you love wolves, hardship, immersion, or just wildlife in general, get. This. Game!! Although, one reccomendation I do have is that I think that adding A: elk/prey with injuries, and B: add some more customization options, for free and for the payed packs, like maybe some scratches but not a coat, a texture that simply gets put over the coat texture, this would be realy, really fun for rp!! Thank you for reading this far!!
WolfQuest has been so important all throughout my life and it's helped me become a better writer, helped me feel like I have a community, and honestly it's just so fun knocking out all these achievements. I love this game so much, it feels like the devs care about you and are there for you. Such a sweet and wonderful game, community, and team :). 10 out of 10
