Excuse the mess...
This article is currently in development. We'll post on the main page when it's complete. Check back later!


Are you brand new to Wolvden - planning to create an account, or just starting with a new account? We're excited to have you! The Grouse House Wiki is a player-created wiki for Wolvden, and we hope that you'll find it helpful in getting started. Wolvden can be overwhelming when you're just beginning, but we're here to help!


What is Wolvden?

What is Wolvden?

Wolvden is a free-to-play browser game created by Lioden Ltd, the same people who brought you Lioden back in 2013! With an emphasis on breeding and genetics, and full of beautiful artwork, Wolvden lets you take the role of the leader of your own wolf pack. You'll be able to raise, train, and breed a whole pack of wolves, all while collecting dozens of items, interacting with other players, and building a fortune!


If you're coming from Lioden, you might be able to catch on to the gameplay a bit easier, but keep in mind that many of Wolvden's mechanics are very different than Lioden's! When it comes to hunting, breeding, and more, what you understand about Lioden will not apply here.


Wolvden was released to the public in October 2020, following months of closed beta testing. Since then, it's been in active development, with new development updates every few months!

Opening Sequence

Opening Sequence

When first creating your account, you will be tasked with creating a wolf. This will be your lead wolf, and you will be stuck with them until they retire. Don't worry - you'll have plenty of opportunity to customize this wolf with items you gain later on!


In Wolvden, you have the opportunity to choose between a male or a female lead wolf. Both sexes have their benefits, but it's also important to consider the drawbacks. Female lead wolves, if pregnant, will have slower energy regeneration than normal. This means that, if you plan on breeding your female lead wolf, you'll have some periods where exploring might be a bit slower. However, you will be able to have puppies!


On the other hand, male lead wolves, if assigned the Breeding Male role, can be bred at basically no cost except for a little bit of energy. So, when choosing a lead wolf, consider whether you plan on breeding them and whether or not you care about slowed energy regeneration.


After you've made your account, you'll be greeted by Tala, a helpful and passionate guide. You'll see Tala many times throughout the game, so keep your eye out!


Tala
 

An enthusiastic guide, Tala will instruct you through the creation of your pack and work alongside you in learning the game. She's a friendly neighbor who you'll encounter multiple times throughout the game, whether that be while wandering around in explore, seeking help from the archives, or even... dating!

Wolf

she/her


The next thing Tala asks of you is to select your first home biome, the place that you'd like your pack to reside. All biomes have their benefits and it's recommended you just choose the one you like the most! It doesn't really matter which one you choose in the start as it's easy to move around later on. We recommend you choose based on aesthetic! Each biome has its on set of artworks, decorations, and backgrounds which make them enjoyably unique. You can view galleries of every biome on the Biome Image Gallery page.



After this, Tala will introduce you to your companion wolf who you're also able to customize. Then, she'll point you in the direction of the Questing Snake, where you can pick up some additional tutorial quests to learn more about the game and start unlocking mechanics.
