About Wayward Valley
Welcome to Wayward Valley, a captivating semi-sandbox turn-based RPG that blends village building, resource management, and dungeon crawling into one epic adventure. After a sudden death transports you to a mysterious new world, you'll start from nothing and forge your own destiny in this isekai-inspired journey.
Build Your Village, Shape Your Destiny
Transform a humble settlement into a thriving city at the edge of the kingdom. Every building, every workshop, and every home must be constructed by your own hands using resources gathered from the wild. As your village grows, you'll attract new NPCs—each with their own skills, needs, and personalities. Keep them fed, happy, and employed, or risk losing valuable high-level workers who take their expertise with them when they leave.
Farm, Craft, Conquer
Master the art of resource gathering and crafting as you explore the dangerous wilderness surrounding Wayward Valley. Collect materials, forge powerful equipment, and prepare your hunters for the challenges ahead. Your farming and crafting skills will be the backbone of your settlement's success—every resource matters, every item crafted brings you closer to prosperity.
Lead Your Heroes into Battle
Recruit and manage a team of hunters who will protect your village and venture into the unknown. Your first companion is an ambitious young hunter seeking glory in the new frontier. Together, you'll clear dangerous areas, defeat monsters, and unlock new gathering zones for your villagers. Equip your heroes with the gear you've crafted and watch them grow stronger with each victory.
The Tower Awaits
At the border of the kingdom stands the Tower—a mysterious dungeon filled with increasingly powerful monsters and rare treasures. Your village exists to defend this crucial location. Battle through the Tower's floors in turn-based combat, defeat guardians, and unlock rooms filled with unique resources that can't be found anywhere else. The deeper you venture, the greater the rewards—and the greater the danger.
Manage Your Growing Settlement
Balance the needs of your expanding population with the demands of the capital. Your NPCs require food and happiness to remain productive. You'll pay taxes to the kingdom based on your population size, but in return, you'll have access to trade routes and support. Make strategic decisions about which buildings to construct, which NPCs to prioritize, and how to allocate your precious resources.
A True Grind for True Farmers
Wayward Valley is designed for players who love the satisfaction of gradual progression and long-term planning. This is a game where patience is rewarded, where every hour of grinding brings visible improvements to your village and your heroes. Watch your settlement evolve from a few wooden huts to an impressive city, and see your hunters grow from novices to legendary warriors.
