Slough Creek Walkthrough

Slough Creek is the second and final area in WolfQuest Episode 2 you will visit, in which you raise pups.

After a long and bitter winter, the time has come to start a pack. You and your mate have wandered to Slough Creek, another region in Yellowstone National Park. First, you will need to choose a den by entering a den site (the den will stand out somewhat; it can be anything from the roots of a tree to a rock cave), and mark your territory by pressing the P key or howling by pressing H.



After completing the tasks above, a litter of four pups will be born after a gestation period of nine weeks (not in real life, of course!) Now with four pups to worry about, you and your mate will have to be quite responsible.



Train your pups to stay close to your den. To do this, whenever a pup wanders away, pick it up by pressing SPACE when you see a green icon. Then return your pup to the den. Remember to reward it with food! To feed your pups, after eating, regurgitate food for your pups by pressing F when you see a yellow icon.

Protect your pups from predators. Your pups will stay near the den when you're over 50 meters away from it, but hungry coyotes, eagles, and bears could be lurking nearby. Kill coyotes and chase off bears by biting them three times, making sure you have full health. As for eagles, attack them when they land after flying.

Once your pups weigh at least 10 lbs (you can track their weight by pressing the ESC key and then clicking "Pack Stats") feed them twice as much. Your mate will help as well. Search for elk carcasses and feed them constantly until they weigh 15 lbs.

​Once they weigh 15 lbs, your pups are beginning to grow too big for the den! It is time to leave for your summer home. To do this, howl (H key) until you have maximum pack affinity (blue bar on your stamina-and-health circle in the top left corner of the screen) Once you do, follow the star on the compass--this leads to your summer home. Carry your pups one by one toward Slough Creek. Do not attempt to carry them across the creek, as they'll probably drown. Instead, search for shallow areas where they can wade and go across. Once you have completed this task, head toward the star.



If elk are scarce and carcasses are being eaten by a coyote/grizzly, you can visit the Cattle Ranch, right off the borders of Slough Creek. To do this, jump over the fence by hitting the spacebar, then press the W key to stalk. Scan the herd for a small calf. Don't get too close to the adults, or they will moo loudly. When you approach a calf, wait till you see a red icon, then press the spacebar to kill it. Feed until your health bar is full. Listen out for the barks of a dog--the dog will warn a human and you will be shot before you can escape!

With enough Experience Points (ESC key then "Pack Stats") you'll be able to name your pups. Gender is your choice, although most pups are half male, half female.
