The Wastelands
A downloadable game for Windows
The Wastelands is a text-based game made with a type of computer programming called Batch.
In the game, your goal is to live and survive in the wastelands. You will need to explore around, finding several Loot Crates and special items. But beware! Zombies roam around this place, so you might need to deal with them first. Get materials, upgrade your tools and begin your journey that might never end. Who knows?
The game includes:
- Fighting Mechanics
- Endless Exploration
- Loot Crates & Rare Items
- Mouse/Keyboard Interaction
And more!
Have fun playing this well-made Batch game.
Made for Windows 11. Although this will work in older versions of Windows.
Additional Notes:
- If a message pops up asking if you want to open a script file, just click "Open".
- To leave and keep your progress, choose the "Quit" option on the main menu instead of just closing the window.
- The game will be FREE. Forever. So just enjoy ;)

Hi, i found 2 bugs:
Any suggestions? Write them here!
i personally use mac and plan to add linux as second machine, so i'd welcome a browser version if porting this curious-looking game is a hassle for you. couldn't run the .bat file with the Wine Crossover for mac i sometimes use for windows indie games
