Product Description
The gameplay will evolve as the animal's age over eleven stages that take the player from snowy mountains, across turbulent ice sheets that are ravaged by blizzards, and into the frigid oceans that are patrolled by deadly killer whales. The stages alternate between free-roaming areas containing several mini-games to travel zones, which involve the player taking actions to get from one area to another. The travel zones could be anything from descending a cliff face from the mountains to the ice sheets below or surviving in the open ocean as a storm rages around you.

My kids love this game. They think the polar bears are so cute. You control the bear and move around interacting with other bears, finding food and playing little games.

Great for a kid who loves animals by J. BELAK 4 Stars

If your child loves watching nature shows and researching animals on the computer then this is a great game for them. My 9 year old son LOVES it. But, if your child is only looking for a game for the fun value, this is not the game you want. The graphics are poor and besides exploring and a few mini games, there is not much to do.
