Free idle fantasy RPG
See what’s beyond the next town.
Walk one long road east from Wanderer’s Rest. Fight for better gear, mine and smith your own, and choose what your wanderer works on while you’re away.
This is the game
Wanderer is one connected map. Towns are safe ground with shops and forges; the wilds between them get tougher the further east you go. Tap to walk, pick a travel mode, and your wanderer finds fights, loot and work along the way.
How you progress
Better gear gets you through country that used to stop you. New country has better things in it.

Mine copper and tin, smelt them into bronze at a town forge, and smith your own tools and gear. There are twelve ores, from copper to celestial, alongside woodcutting, fishing, cooking, alchemy and more.
Some bosses and mini-bosses guard the way forward. Beat one and the road opens up, and the gear you find gets better the further east you push. Lose a fight to a monster and you wake in the nearest town you’ve reached, with all your items and experience.
Where the road goes
More than thirty regions so far, each with its own monsters and towns. Four of them, in the order you’d reach them:
Levels 1–6Wanderer’s RestA warm green basin and every traveller’s home. Your house goes here.
Levels 34–50BlackfenA maze of stagnant water, reeds and sunken ruins.
Levels 145–170The Gilded ValePast the dusk the sun returns: gold grass and an empire’s broken Sun-Gate.
Levels 258–298The CindermawAn obsidian ridge of lava falls, where the Forgeheart smiths work.
Open the World Atlas for every region, town and landmark. Region pictures are rendered from the live world map.
Find your own pace
Pick what your wanderer does: explore east, hunt nearby monsters, rest, head home, or work a skill like mining, smelting, fishing or woodcutting. Close the game and they keep at it.
The whole game is free to play. It’s paid for by optional rewarded ads (each one adds up to three hours of double XP and gold) and two optional purchases. The monthly Supporter subscription keeps a double XP and gold boost topped up, adds at least 12 hours of offline time, gives one extra Market Token a day, and a blue name and cape. Soul Shards buy Soulfire boons, which raise XP, item drops or gathering for everyone on the server for a while, and a cosmetic cape. No gear or levels are sold, but these options do make progress faster.

Yes. It’s one account on one server, so you can sign in on the browser, the Android app or your iPhone and carry on as the same wanderer.
No. You’ll see other players on the road, in chat and on the leaderboards, but nothing needs a group. Outside towns players can fight each other; losing a duel costs some coins and sends you back to Wanderer’s Rest. Towns, the Rest and your house lot are safe.
Against a monster, nothing but position: you wake at full health in the nearest town you’ve reached, with all your items, gear, experience and gold.
