I love that game! Espcially when you have pups but the graphics arent great but hey thats 1994 for you XD. Lion was also pretty cool cos u could kill hunters of nasi that entered your den. As with wolf if a hunter went to your denhole anyone guarding the pups would be dead.
I also know some cheats if you want me to explain them.

  I have considered downbloading these and such, but i have no clue if I should. How did you guys get it? I'm sure you just can't go out and buy this stuff am i right? Because it does look interesting, I've been wondering how I should get it for a while.

You should, it's work the play. However, since it is a DOS game, controls are a little difficult, but it's not too bad to learn them with Wolf.
You should also look at Lion, which I love too, but it has horrendous (we're talking 10 minute) loading screens.. it can be fixed by turning the frame rate waaay up in DOSBox though. Still, Wolf is easier if you're just learning with DOSBox. (Also, the link to the version I have has no sound - because Lion is really big to download as it is at 27 mb/28,164 kb. OUCH. That's alot when your downloading directly from a server and not by torrent.)

DOSBox can be downloaded here from their website.
WOLF can be downloaded here from Abandonia.
LION can be downloaded here, again, from Abandonia.

Just for anyone else who sees it and has no idea of where to get any of them, or if you don't want to look for a legit downloaded to Wolf. xD
If there was a way to have spoiler tags on this forum, I'd put a walkthrough on how to run wolf in it.. but, sadly, this forum has no such button (although if asked I will post another reply with it right here). :(

I'm really enjoying Wolf, I've been playing for a few years now, and it's very fun. Hard to get pups though... Well not hard, but you need patience.
