Survive in the Wild West with nothing but your own resources
Survival games have gained a lot of momentum over the years. Minecraft is the best example, but many other titles have targeted this genre with different luck in very diverse platforms. There is one thing they all have in common: it looks like they are never going to get out of early access.

This is the case of Westland Survival, which seems to be in the same situation as its close relatives for PC and even Android. What is the good part? You do not need to purchase the game to have access, although it still involves some microtransactions. At the time of writing this text, the title is pretty complete (thank goodness), although there are a few things that developers are still trying to implement, including daily quests and PvP duels.
Westland Survival features
- Aerial perspective.
- Wide-open world.
- Intuitive game system.
- Use your resources to survive and improve your shelter.
- Craft your items and equipment.
A good survival game?
The survival games market is so saturated that it is hard to know if this is really innovative or if we find ourselves in front of yet another Minecraft clone with a facelift. Westland Survival is a strange mixture of genres: on the one hand, the survival game genre; on the other, your typical mobile game where players can either pay to carry out specific actions or wait what feels like forever.
To what extent is this good or bad? It is hard to say. In any case, the best thing is for you to try it for yourself and draw your own conclusions. In our tests, we have found that the experience was satisfactory for the most part, although, as we have mentioned, we are not too keen on this mobile gaming trend of almost always ending in the need for a microtransaction.
