Sounds interesting, I like the idea. c:

Hmm, sounds good.
It might be hard to make the game into an app, but it might not be impossible, might it? c:

I believe Eduweb did state they would be interested in making an app.
WQ Coordinator wrote:Update: Eduweb would love to make an app, but if we are going to release one, it has to be good (and have a point), meaning it would have to be a separate project that would cost a fair amount of money. There's still a chance (they've developed different iphone apps before), but it cost a lot more money than they anticipated, so the basic funding would have to be there. That, and it probably wouldn't be a free app because of all the funding it would take to create it. But since the WolfQuest computer game and forum are free, I don't think it would be awful to charge to download a smartphone app. So we'll see, but again, don't get your hopes up too high.

As explained by Cana, making an app for the game would still require funding and a Unity license for such a thing to be possible for Android/IOS devices. There are different licenses depending on the platform developers want to work on -- WolfQuest's being built on the computer engine.

...and Unity does not come cheap at $1,500 give or take a few of the other add-ons provided there.

So having an app with the game on it would probably not be an option at this stage. It may or may not be possible based on what would be put on the app.

Again, it comes down to funding that the team just doesn't have, nor are they actively seeking funding as of December 2012; however, if you have any serious ideas or suggestions for funding solutions, you're welcome to get in contact with Eduweb.

That quote is from a post made in September 2012; we've heard nothing about an app since then. Cana's position was terminated at the beginning of 2013, so it's hard to imagine they're still thinking about making an app - especially with phase 2 being on hold.

With funding being an issue, it probably won't be a possibility at this point without serious funding suggestions. Unless Eduweb can get the project back in gear, it's highly unlikely we'll ever see an app for WolfQuest.

I'm honestly not sure an app would have even gotten off the ground. Because of the size of WQ, the game would have to be shrunken down. A lot. Either that, or it would only be able to work on tablets, no smart phones or iPods.

I asked about an app a few years ago. It most likely is never going to happen, espically since funding is a problem.

Wolfquest App Discussion

Post by Starz10 » Sun Dec 28, 2014 9:19 am

I haven't been on Wolfquest for a while, but after checking up on the forums I found out that there is a Wolfquest App in the making! I'm sure people are really excited for the new features they might include. Therefore, I thought it would be cool to make a discussion about what everyone is excited for, or what they hope will be added in. My apologies if there is a topic already like this one.

Yay, your back Starz!


I'm super-excited for the Tablet Edition, I even dreamed about it!

I'm really hoping for more customization options and pictures of the new multiplayer map!

Night is now falling, so ends this day.
The road is now calling, and I must away.
Over hill and under tree, through lands where never light has shone.
By silver streams that run down to the sea.
