"How to Get and Use the Wish Machine in Once Human"

The highly anticipated mobile version of the post-apocalyptic survival game, *Once Human*, is slated for release on April 23, 2025. Since its announcement in 2024, it has consistently ranked among the most wishlisted games in its genre. A standout feature of *Once Human* is the Wish Machine, which plays a crucial role in helping players obtain blueprints for weapons, gear, and other vital items, significantly enhancing their survival experience in the game's harsh, post-apocalyptic world. This guide offers a detailed look at the Wish Machine, covering how to unlock, construct, and make the most out of it.

How to Unlock the Wish Machine

Unlocking the Wish Machine is straightforward, as the game encourages players to access it early on. You can initiate the setup of the Wish Machine by advancing through the main storyline quests. It becomes available during the main quest line in the Greywater Camp of the Iron River section. Upon encountering the machine, you'll have the option to either transfer it to your base or craft it using the required resources. To construct the Wish Machine, you'll need the following materials:

• Copper Ingots: 25
• Rusted Parts: 10
• Metal Scraps: 5
• Rubber: 3
• Glass: 5

After collecting these materials, you can build the Wish Machine within your territory by navigating to the building menu under Facilities > Function Facility.

A single draw from the Wish Machine costs 500 starchrom, while a 10-pull requires 5000 starchrom. Once you've made your selection, you'll engage in a mini-whacking game where you strike a llama with a mallet. The outcome of the game doesn't influence the final reward, but you must complete the task. If you prefer to skip this, you can select the bypass Cutscene button to proceed directly to the results.

Tips for Using the Wish Machine to Your Benefit

While using the Wish Machine is relatively straightforward, players can maximize their efficiency with these tips:

• Evaluating Costs: Although the mini-game involves a chance-based system, directly purchasing desired blueprints from the Blueprint Shop can be more cost-effective, especially for high-tier items.
• Budgeting Starchrom: Given the limited availability of Starchrom, it's wise to prioritize spending on essential blueprints that suit your gameplay style.
• Understanding Probability: Be aware that the mini-game's rewards are randomized. If you're targeting a specific item, prepare for multiple attempts or consider a direct purchase from the Blueprint Shop.

For an enhanced gaming experience, players can enjoy *Once Human* on a larger screen using BlueStacks on their PC or laptop, along with the precision of a keyboard and mouse.
