Venture Arctic

Venture Arctic is a unique software that sets itself apart from other Tycoon Games. The game does not involve people, hot dog stands, or the need to balance your checkbook. Instead, you have the freedom to build your ecosystem in any way you want. The game allows you to control nature with the wind, earth, sun, and water to create extreme seasonal changes that affect the cycle of life in the northernmost reaches of the globe.

With Venture Arctic, you can collect the "spirits" of departed animals and use them to control the forces of nature. For instance, you can blow the smells of a beached whale to a starving wolverine or blanket the tundra with snow and ice to weed out the weak musk ox from the strong. Additionally, the game emphasizes environmentalism, so you can experiment with how animal relationships change when the weather is unseasonably warm or when a species is knocked out of the food chain.

Venture Arctic is the ultimate animal game as it does not involve people or the need to manage finances. Instead, it allows you to build your ecosystem in any way you want. The game also features authentic Inuit sculpture and lore, which inspire the storytelling and artwork.

Venture Arctic is not just all about fun, though. It features educational games that provide insights into marine and terrestrial animals of the northern reaches. By playing the game, you can learn strategies for success that revolve around understanding the actual animal behaviors and the challenges of ecosystem stewardship.

Lastly, the software offers discounts for educators and those who purchase three or more copies of the game. You can download the free demo version before buying the full version of the game. Once you pay for it, you can unlock the remainder of the game and enjoy more features.
