About the Game

About the Game

In Wilderness and Evolution, you will lead a tribe of primitive humans starting from the age of ape-men, embarking on a cross-generational journey of survival and evolution through a perilous world. Assign tribe members to gather, craft, hunt, migrate, and pray as you guide them through harsh environments, fending off wild beasts, natural disasters, and plagues. Collect inventions and evolution points to unlock new tools, abilities, and technologies, pushing your tribe toward the Homo sapiens era — or even into fantastical civilizations beyond.

Core Features

  • Tribe Management & Growth: Assign members to gather, craft, hunt, rest, or pray. Each has unique attributes and lifespan, directly impacting your tribe’s productivity and combat strength.

  • Dynamic Survival Challenges: Face food shortages, disease, predator attacks, disasters, and encounters with other tribes.

  • Migration & Exploration: Lead your tribe on constant migrations to explore new lands, seek food, uncover rare resources, avoid threats, and defeat powerful creatures.

  • Evolution System: Earn evolution points to unlock “black technologies,” physical mutations (like gills or wings), new tools, and branching civilization paths.

  • Grid-Based World Exploration: Traverse varied terrains, discover special events and mysterious monsters, and plan your tribe’s expansion strategies.

  • Roguelike Adventure: Every playthrough offers a unique journey, where your tribe’s survival depends on your choices, luck, and multi-generational progress.

Highlights

  • Simulated life cycle: from birth to old age, each member’s journey matters.

  • Turn-based hunting system with injury, recovery, and loot mechanics.

  • Dynamic AI tribes and wildlife that evolve and move across the world map.

  • Rich tribe customs, quirks, and achievement systems for unique runs.

  • Evolve from realistic human history into fantastical civilizations like dwarves, winged folk, aquatic people, and elves.
