It was originally meant to just be a tablet port of the game with some bug fixes however, with the unexpectedly large amount of interest in a tablet version, the massive number of improvements in the game, and additions such as a graphics overhaul, new map, and account/achievement system, it was decided that it would be released on PC and Mac as well. WolfQuest 2.7 was released in November 2015 - the name was chosen because it doesn't include a 3rd episode, so WolfQuest 3 isn't entirely accurate, but the changes make it distinct from 2.5. This version, now known as WolfQuest 2.5, remains free on the WolfQuest website. This was intended to be the "final" version of the game, since everything was about as complete as it could be and there was not enough funding for a third episode the game had already outlived expectations by several years. Its "deluxe" version added weather and time - the winning suggestion in a contest - and was released in fall 2011. This was the summer episode, focusing on a series of missions where you and your mate establish a den site and raise pups. Despite funding issues along the way - the game had grown far bigger than its original scope - the game got its second episode, "Slough Creek" (aka "Survival of the Pack"), two years later, on January 1, 2010. Episode 1, "Amethyst Mountain" (the fall season, which focused on finding a mate) saw its first release in December 2007.
The game was originally envisioned to be four "episodes" long, with each one covering a different season and a different stage in a wolf's life. There is also a multiplayer option where players can connect to create their own pack. Along the way you are free to hunt (including on a cattle ranch outside the park if you're willing to risk it), interact with other wolves, and encounter other animals such as coyotes and bears. In this game you play the life of a wild wolf in Yellowstone, from finding a mate and establishing your own territory, to raising your own pups. It is the first video game to have received a grant from the National Science Foundation.
WolfQuest is an educational computer game created by the Minnesota Zoo and Eduweb, designed to raise awareness about wolves.
