Open-world wolf sim
Wolf Tales - Wild Animal Sim
The best wolf sim on Android: it teaches you the country before it teaches you the menus.
Our score 8.9Play rating 4.6
Independent, Melbourne, since 2026
Six wolf games, read slowly
Four open worlds that put you inside the animal, and two puzzles that put it in the frame. Each one played over several evenings and written up properly, with no lists of thirty, no scores without an explanation, and no dates on the front page pretending anything here is news.
Store facts come from the Australian Google Play listings, checked on 10 September 2026. Everything else is one person opinion, and it says so.

Six games, one subject
Every review on the site
The six
The whole catalogue, best first. The large one is the game I would install if I could only keep one; the five beside it cover everything else this corner of the store has to offer.
Open-world survival sim
WildCraft: Animal Sim Online
Enormous, generous and determined to make you work for the first hour before it opens up.
Our score 8.2Play rating 4.5
Nonogram puzzle
Wolf And Moon : Nonogram
A clean nonogram engine under a moonlit wolf, and the calmest thing on this site.
Our score 8.0Play rating 4.4
Task-led wolf RPG
Wolf: The Evolution Online RPG
Never stops handing you something to do, which is both the appeal and the problem.
Our score 7.4Play rating 4.3
Jigsaw app
Wolf Jigsaw Puzzles
Wolves, as jigsaws, with nothing else attached. Plain in every sense.
Our score 6.9Play rating 4.5
Wolf sim MMO
Animal Kingdoms: Wolf Sim MMO
The most populated wolf map here, and the one with the least to do on it.
Our score 6.7Play rating 4.4
Side by side
All six in one table
The whole catalogue summarised in a row apiece, so the differences are visible before you read any of them.
| Game | What it is | Typical sitting | Entry barrier | Google Play rating | Our score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wolf Tales - Wild Animal Sim | Open-world wolf sim | 25-40 minutes | Gentle; the opening walk is the tutorial | 4.6 (87.7K) | 8.9 |
| WildCraft: Animal Sim Online | Open-world survival sim | 30-60 minutes | Steep; expect a rough first hour | 4.5 (1.22M) | 8.2 |
| Wolf And Moon : Nonogram | Nonogram puzzle | 10-25 minutes | Moderate; the rules take one puzzle to land | 4.4 (1.68K) | 8.0 |
| Wolf: The Evolution Online RPG | Task-led wolf RPG | 15-25 minutes | Very low; it tells you what to do at all times | 4.3 (53.9K) | 7.4 |
| Wolf Jigsaw Puzzles | Jigsaw app | 15-30 minutes per puzzle | None whatsoever | 4.5 (1.63K) | 6.9 |
| Animal Kingdoms: Wolf Sim MMO | Wolf sim MMO | 20-30 minutes | Low, with a talkative opening sequence | 4.4 (4.46K) | 6.7 |
Every row is the same six games you will find in the catalogue above, laid out so the two right-hand columns sit next to each other. That pairing is the most useful thing on this page.
Reading the numbers
Two numbers, and what each one is for
Every review here prints a Google Play average and an editorial score side by side, and they are answering different questions. The store average is a very large number of people rating an app once, usually early and usually generously. The score on the right is one person who kept the app on a phone for a fortnight and then wrote down why.
Where the two disagree is where the review is worth reading. Animal Kingdoms carries a respectable 4.4 on Google Play and takes the lowest score on this site, and the explanation is a whole section of its review rather than a line in a table.
What the store average is
A very large number of people rating an app once, most of them in the first week they installed it. It is a useful signal of whether something is broken and a poor signal of whether it is worth an evening.
The count matters more than the figure: Animal Kingdoms: Wolf Sim MMO carries 4.4 from 4.46K ratings, and both halves of that belong in the same sentence.
What the editorial score is
One person, an ordinary Android handset, at least three sessions on separate days at the hour the game was built for. It answers a single question: how glad was I that this app was on the phone.
Facts on every review - developer, rating, rating count, content rating, update date - come from the Australian Google Play listings and were checked on 10 September 2026.
