About the Game

A True Story That Became a Legend

You are Wojtek. A brown bear cub found in the mountains of Iran. You don't understand the war. You don't know who the enemy is. You only know the men who feed you, carry you, and call you their own.

Follow the 22nd Artillery Supply Company from the scorched sands of Iraq through the camps of Palestine and Egypt, to the bloody slopes of Monte Cassino, and witness history through the eyes of the only soldier who never needed a uniform.

Key Features

A Bear's Journey Through 5 Acts: Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Egypt, Italy, Scotland. Each chapter tells a different story of belonging, courage, and loss, seen entirely from four paws.

Scent Vision: Explore the world through Wojtek's nose. Detect emotions, find hidden memories, and sense what no human soldier ever could.

No Combat. No HUD. No Game Over: This is not a war game. This is a story about what war does to those who never chose to fight.

Letters from the Front: Discover 15 hidden letters that reveal the fates of the soldiers who walked beside you, and the families waiting for them at home.

Historical Gallery: Photographs, documents, and stories from the real Wojtek's life - the bear who carried ammunition at Monte Cassino and never forgot the sound of Polish.

Based on a true story. Wojtek the bear served with the Polish II Corps from 1943 to 1947.
