## The Pack Description
Help restore the world to an ecologically balanced state in this open-world puzzle and survival game – while learning some computational thinking along the way! The Pack is set in Algos, a future world where healthy ecosystems have faltered, water and food are scarce, and it’s up to you and your Pack to help fix the environment.
 
You find yourself waking up in a barren land where the only way to bring balanced life back is to replenish water sources and find varied seeds that are scattered all over the world! You can’t do it alone, and can’t stray too far from water, so you and a “Pack” of helpful creatures set out on an adventure across Algos.
 
Throughout the game, you must find food sources to attract your own Pack made of local Algos creatures with special skills that will help you in your new environment. These creatures have functions like digging, moving, holding, grabbing and bumping, skills that will help you collect seeds and bring water to dry areas. When your Pack has more than one type of creature, you can combine them in a sequence (also known as an algorithm) to perform complex tasks and overcome challenges. Learning and mastering how to use these algorithms is the key to finding all of the seeds and restoring harmony to Algos!

## The Pack Reviews in United States

### ***** "Long time player"
Please update game so it can support more it’s my favorite!!!
-- Lotuz Luxx, 2025-12-15

### ***-- "I cleared this game."
But, few played after cleared, that NPC stuck corner of field. But still that NPC saying, “Thank you! I’ll keep exploring.” But how does that NPC move from stuck on corner of field? How can I help that sticking NPC? Or, is that bug?
-- Globalstandard Space, 2024-11-17

### ****- "A small, but annoying glitch"
So I have completed The pack and have been trying to restore the land. After awhile my friend gets stuck in the same place and keeps on saying "Thank you! I'll keep exploring." and " There used to be a forest here… Let’s plant something new.". It's a great game! But there are some flaws.
-- Cinnamonbun888, 2024-06-15

### ***** "very fun and relaxing"
super fun game. the visuals are amazing.great work on the world. 

it would be nice to have the option to mute the music though
-- C_Styyles, 2024-01-16

### ***** "good game"
well made and great theme. the characters reek of hard work
-- albert randy, 2022-11-14

### *---- "App crashed"
the app not open and crashed with error 
Termination Reason:    Namespace CODESIGNING, Code 0x1
on mac os 10.13.6
-- Abo calypso, 2020-11-26

### **--- "it wont work"
downloaded on high siera for iMac. but the game only opend to a black blank screen. was really excited to play.
-- Parked and monkey, 2020-08-21

### ****- "Science Teacher Says Thumbs Up"
As a middle school science teacher, I would say that The Pack is simple, yet challenging. I have been playing for a few months and will now introduce it to my students.

The game will support my students in their understanding of algorithms and computational thinking as they use creatures to create algorithms and solve problems in Algos. 

The Pack’s themes fit into several of my learning units such as scientific inquiry and ecology. I’m interested to see how the game enhances their engagement and understanding of patterns, cause and effect, scale, porportion, and quantity etc..
-- Samantha Waugh, 2020-05-16

### ***** "Great game! Beautiful and creative!"
This is a wonderful game for my kids, but I wound up loving it as well! The algorithms are a great way to get kids thinking. Great job!

I’m not sure how to reach the developer, but it does eventually dead end with somebody telling you to plant a forest no matter how many trees you plant. Maybe that’s just the end of the game?
-- Tmgtenor, 2019-10-05

### ***** "Cute, fun, relaxing!"
My son and I love playing this game together! It’s so relaxing and challenging in just the right ways. We can build and try out different algorithms to solve the problems, like how to find and gather a seed that is out of reach. I’m drawn to the idea of restoring natural land much more than the other simulation games out there, which seem to mostly be about buildings and war.

It could use some improvements with the controls—tap & drag is how you move AND how to move the algorithms around. There are some weird glitches like how the water sometimes stacks and doesn’t spread, and there’s a significant lag in water movement and land re-greening. I would totally pay for this game if someone made improvements!
