The Wandering Village

In a hostile world stricken by toxic spores, a small group of survivors seek shelter on the back of a giant, wandering creature called 'Onbu'. As the settlement's new leader, navigate the many dangers this world holds in store, grow your village and, ultimately, ensure the survival of your people and Onbu alike. Provide shelter, food and entertainment for your people. Plan and optimise production chains. Make sure your village is prepared for changing climates and environmental hazards. Take the opportunity to forage the world for treasures and rare resources. Overcome great odds in a poisoned post-apocalyptic world. And decide how to live with the gentle giant: will you form a symbiotic relationship based on mutual trust, or will you become a parasite and exploit Onbu, taking whatever you want? The choice is yours to make.

  • Survive together: Expand and optimize your village on the back of a living creature, either as a helper or a parasite.
  • Keep the balance: Weigh the needs of the settlers against those of Onbu, facing tough decisions around every corner.
  • A changing world: Adapt your strategy as you travel through a multitude of biomes and face new challenges and threats.
  • New technologies: Find and research remnants of long-lost technology, but use them wisely, as progress can be a double-edged sword.
  • Overcome great odds: Keep your small village alive through poisonous spores, merciless weather, bloodsucking parasites, and more.
