You wake up as the lone survivor of a wagon convoy ambushed by bandits, with no shelter and night coming. Westland Survival, from Helio Games, starts from that spot and asks you to build, hunt and fight your way back. About 10 million installs have been recorded on Google Play, and this page covers what is known about the game.
A survival game set on the Oregon Trail
The defining fact is the setting. Instead of zombies or a ruined future, the game places you in the Wild West, with outlaws, sheriffs, bounty hunters and tribes spread across a large open world. Each location has its own resources and its own enemies.
The store listing names two stops: Native American tribes, where you craft spiritual items, and a Bandits Outpost where you clear out enemies. The game is tagged adventure and rated Teen.
From ranch building to bounty hunts
A session begins with gathering. You collect resources, craft workbenches, hunt animals for furs against frost and hunger, and raise a shelter that grows into a fortress. Rare blueprints unlock stronger weapons and armor for fights with bandits.
Later loops add a stable, where a horse speeds up travel and carries extra items. You can also tame animals to fight beside you. Daily bounty quests pay rewards from the city sheriff, and a PvP ladder ranks players.
Alliances let you build a town together, mine gold and contest treasure in PvP. Limited events, such as a train raid on the Oregon Trail, rotate in with traveling traders.
How it sits against other western titles
Alternatives include Western Survival Shooting Game, West Gunfighter, Guns at Dawn, Wild West Cowboy Redemption and West Game. Several of those names point toward shooting or gunfighting.
Westland Survival leans on base building, crafting, taming and alliances alongside combat.
