Dive deep into the forests filled with birds singing, fascinating animals, and various challenges. Natural Instincts is a relaxing experience that gives you an insight into the wildlife of European forests. Learn about the different species and protect them and their environment. Keep the dangers away from the animals and help them breed so their packs, colonies, and families can grow. Be careful though as the balance in the environment is very fragile.
Each animal is born with a set of traits, some of which are inheritable. Choose carefully which animals to breed, to create stronger and stronger generations. Remember to keep the balance between prey and predators; otherwise one of the group may struggle to survive.

The game features several campaigns, each of which tells about a different species of European forest animals. Get to know the lives and struggles of wolves, rabbits, or even wild boars with these short yet complex stories. Do unique quests, learn about the animals’ habits, and enjoy watching them grow in safety thanks to your actions.
Each animal species has its own unique habits. In Natural Instincts, you can observe how wolves, deer, and other species of European animals behave in their natural environment. Now, you can discover all their secrets! Did you know that fawns are born scentless so that they are less likely to be found by predators?

Lead the animals and show them how to avoid harm! Direct them away from the streets or trash, which may be very dangerous to wildlife. Help them avoid poachers, and save them from dangerous situations. The animals will learn based on your actions - command them wisely as the balance in the ecosystem is fragile. Do not let them go extinct!
During gameplay, you will face a number of events and challenges. Encounters with poachers and wild dumps will get in your way to protect the environment, but you can always count on volunteers to help you clean the trash or feed the animals! You can lead the animals to extermination or bring balance and multiply their population. It all depends on you!
