Man vs. Wild is a video game inspired by the Man vs. Wild survival television series. In it, the player takes on the role of host Bear Grylls to survive the hardships of various environments. It was developed by American companies Floor 84 Studio and Scientifically Proven.

The game targeted all major seventh-generation platforms, but the handheld versions were ultimately cancelled.[2][3]

Gameplay

Players control Bear Grylls in a third-person role-playing adventure and must use survival techniques such as gathering materials, catching food, and creating tools to survive. The game consists of five expeditions that take players through diverse landscapes and weather conditions, including: the Everglades, the Sahara, the Rocky Mountains, a deserted jungle island, and Patagonia. The gameplay is a mix of exploration, mini-games, and puzzle solving.[4][5]

Reception

Man vs. Wild received an overall score of 4.5/10 from Gameplay Today.[6] GameZone gave the game a 6.5 out of 10, stating "Man vs. Wild is a fun, easy game based on a successful television series. Those looking for the next life-changing experience will probably find themselves disappointed. On the other hand, they might learn skills that may be helpful in the event that they’re actually stranded in the wild one day."[7]
