Man vs. Wild is inspired by the survival television series of the same name. The player takes on the role of host Bear Grylls to survive the hardships of various environments. Based around Bear's actual survival techniques, the player must survive the Sahara, a deserted island, Patagonia and more! Unlockables include videos of some of the best moments from the Man vs. Wild series.
The gameplay centres mainly on collection and mini-games within the levels, from dissecting a camel so you can hide inside its carcass during a sandstorm to catching fish with the spear you just made. The player also battles a multitude of animals, including snakes, pumas and bears. It is however a family friendly game, with no blood and plenty of educational material on animals.
Man vs. Wild was released for the Wii console on 26 April 2011.
