How To Get to Dark Forest 5 Island in AFK Journey

Prepare your allies. It’s a tough journey ahead.

The overarching map inย AFK Journeyย feels boundless, with plenty of places to explore and new enemies to wipe out. But one area seems to stump some people: Dark Forest 5. The Island looks like a mystery, one that can be tough to solve because some can’t get there. Thankfully, unlocking Dark Forest 5 Island inย AFK Journeyย isn’t as complicated as it appears. But it will take time and plenty of leveling up of your allies and AFK Stages. So, buckle in andย prepare to enjoy the adventure.

Unlocking Dark Forest 5 Island

As you frolic aroundย AFK Journey, merrily helping people and destroying any enemy, you’ll eventually glimpse a dark, blocked-off Island known as Dark Forest 5. And if youย haven’tย noticed it, you haven’t reached the general Dark Forest area yet. It’s inaccessible until you complete the “Merlin’s ‘Ward'” chapter.

You’ll need to travel to unlock access to several sections, one of them being the Dark Forest 5 Island. If you want to reach the entire area,ย follow the main storyline. It’s tempting to enjoy the extra perks inย AFK Journeyย to score more rewards like the timed events andย additional game modes. But you can’t forget about the main story.

Note that you’ll have to play through quite a bit of AFK Journey to gain full access to Dark Forest 5 Island because you first must get through Dark Forest 7.

Dark Forest 7 Connection

Dark Forest 7 has an interesting connection to Dark Forest 5 Island in AFK Journey. About halfway through, as you focus on the Lucent Lament storyline, you’ll nab two artifacts:

  • Starshard Spell
  • Ironwall Spell

This is how you know you’re on the right track. Following the story until you have both artifacts ensures you naturally move into the right area where you’re on the side to unlock the blocked bridge into Dark Forest 5. With full access, you can freely explore and aim for that 100% completion.

AFK Journey is available on PC and mobile devices.
