SCRAP METAL
Salvaged metal, wire, and components — the universal currency of the wasteland. Used to build everything.
Click the shelter to gather manually. Each survivor passively adds +0.05/s.
Your Shelter
A crumbling ruin. You are alone. Start scavenging.
Collapsed Gas Station
The smell of old fuel clings to broken concrete. Minimal shelter at best.

DEFENSE

Fortify your settlement. Each building here provides a permanent passive bonus to raid defense — walls survive longer, defenders fight harder, and losses are reduced.
Scavenging
Deploy scavengers and build facilities to automate scrap collection.
Upgrades
Food Production
Without food, people starve. Each survivor consumes 0.18 food/s. Keep production above consumption.
Upgrades
Water Systems
Contaminated water is a death sentence. Each survivor consumes 0.12 water/s. Water scarcity freezes population growth.
Upgrades
Power Grid
Electricity enables advanced industry. High-tier buildings consume power continuously — always maintain a surplus.
Upgrades
Population
Survivors strengthen your colony. Each person consumes resources but generates Tech Points and assists scrap production.

Research
How Tech Points work: Each survivor generates 0.006 Tech/s. Research buildings add flat bonuses. Automation adds +0.8/s, Advanced Engineering adds +2/s. Research requires significant Tech investment — build population first.

You are not the only survivor group. Build influence to unify the wasteland under your banner.
Upgrades
Faction Treaties
Spend Influence Bonds earned from diplomacy expeditions to forge lasting alliances with wasteland factions.

WELCOME BACK

Your settlement kept running at reduced capacity while you were away.

◈ ECHO RESET ◈

THE CYCLE CONTINUES
Your city stands — but the world is vast.
Another settlement calls for a founder.
You leave behind only memories.
Those memories are power.

NEW DAWN

CIVILIZATION RESTORED
From ash and ruin, you built what no one believed possible.
New Konstantinopolis stands.
Its lights are visible for forty kilometers.
Humanity endures.

FM 87.5 · EMERGENCY BROADCAST
You wake to the sound of silence.
Not the comfortable silence of sleep.
The silence of everything that used to hum — gone.
No power lines. No traffic. No voices on the radio.
Three days ago the lights went out across the continent.
Nobody knows why. Nobody is coming to explain.
You are standing in the ruins of a gas station.
There is scrap metal in the rubble.
Start picking through it.

The Echo Remains
Your city stood.
Then you let it go.
But something survived the reset —
the memory of what you built.
Each completed civilization earns you Echo Fragments.
These are permanent. They never reset.

Memory as Power
Each Echo Fragment grants a
+2% production bonus to everything —
scrap, food, water, power.
Stack them. They compound.
But spending fragments in the Echo Forge trades that passive bonus
for something more targeted. Choose carefully — spent fragments don't return.

The Echo Forge
Spend fragments on permanent upgrades
that change how every future run plays.
Start buildings earlier. Run missions better.
Carry things forward that weren't possible before.
The Forge is now available in the navigation panel.
Run traits and World Archive fragments are also unlocked here.

REMNANTS — Free Post-Apocalyptic Browser Idle Game

REMNANTS is a free post-apocalyptic browser idle and incremental game. Scavenge scrap, construct buildings, automate resource production, defend your colony from raids, and rebuild civilization from Year Zero. No download required — play instantly in any web browser on desktop or mobile.

Gameplay Loop

Start by manually collecting scrap and food. Build structures to automate gathering. Expand your population, unlock technologies via a research tree, and manage defenses against raid events. Progress through exponential growth typical of incremental games like Cookie Clicker, Kittens Game, and NGU Idle — but in a post-apocalyptic survival setting.

Prestige System — Echo Reset

When you reach sufficient progress, trigger an Echo Reset prestige event. This resets your colony in exchange for permanent Echo multipliers that accelerate future runs. Multiple prestige layers unlock deeper automation and progression systems.
