There’s a new AFK game on the block, the aptly named Idle Wasteland, in which you get to train your survivor as he makes his way through several levels with never-ending paths, fighting monsters, salvaging scrap, and trying their best to survive in their post-apocalyptic world.

True to its name, this game has lots of idle elements, including auto-farming, and auto-gathering; not to mention that the combat is completely automatic as well. However, you can assume manual control at any time and help to speed up your character’s attacks by clicking repeatedly on the screen. Also, you can use items, upgrade your character’s suit, and even unlock permanent buffs by purchasing special boosts with materials you get from exploring.

For many reasons, most of which revolve around its AFK gameplay, Idle Wasteland is a perfect way to pass the time as it lets you progress without the need to constantly monitor your game. However, as is the case with most AFK games, it’s the players who go beyond and put some effort into the game who will progress rapidly, and Idle Wasteland is no exception to this. For this reason, if you want to get good, you’ll need to spend some time manually helping your survivor to hunt, salvaging scraps for materials, and keeping him upgraded at all times.

Nevertheless, despite being designed to be played on mobile devices, you can play Idle Wasteland on PC with BlueStacks, and get access to a variety of tools that can help to speed up your progress and power up your survivor in record time.
