Wayward is a turn-based survival rogue-like game that focuses on exploration, crafting, and survival mechanics. Players start by creating a character and are placed in a procedurally generated world. The game does not have a defined win condition; instead, survival is the primary goal. Players collect resources, such as wood and stone, from the environment, which are then used to craft tools, weapons, and shelter. Managing health, hunger, and thirst is crucial. The game is played from a top-down perspective, and players move on a grid, taking one action per turn. Combat is turn-based, and players must strategize their attacks. The game uses a context-sensitive menu for actions like gathering resources and crafting. Inventory management is key, as resources are limited, and players must decide what to carry. The game includes a well-documented help system with tooltips to aid players in understanding its mechanics.
