Basics
Navigating The Wastes
How to read the map, move between tiles, and understand terrain.
Map Grid
The Wastes are divided into a 4x5 tile grid. Tap any adjacent tile to move your nomad there. Each tile has a terrain type and may contain encounters, resources, or points of interest.
Tile Types
Terrain varies across each zone: plains, forests, mountains, swamps, and more. Special tiles include merchant posts, resource deposits, and nomad camps. Terrain type affects what monsters and resources spawn on that tile.
Map Icons
Indicator icons on each tile tell you what awaits. A biohazard symbol means hostile creatures are present. A campfire marks a nomad camp offering trades and bounties. A pickaxe indicates a resource deposit for gathering.
