“I almost didn't buy this game after reading a couple of reviews that said that your ship never moved for more than a few seconds before breaking down, and making the repair process sound tedious. I'm so glad that I gave…”
“This game taught me to not take things for granted. Not a single word spoken in the game but the way environment told us the story and the location it's situated like it's end of everything which really stood out. Story…”

“This is a tough one to review and Steam's binary "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" doesn't help. To get it out of the way, overall I liked it. It's like a 7/10. The art direction, the atmosphere and vibe, the sounds and…”

“Played on Steam Deck. Great to play in a single sitting. Wonderful game all around, gives me nostalgia for when more games were simple like this. I usually don't like walking sim style games, and in this one you're just…”
“Amazing how certain games can tell you so much without uttering a single word. A short adventure well worth your money.”
“A clever little platformer for as long as it lasts with some serious "Limbo" vibes, and worth the few dollars cost if purchased on Steam sale. I like the premise and give real credit to the dev team for both the…”

“nice relaxing game short hard to lose and easy to 100% price to high in my opinion so i'd say get it in sale, beat it whole in about 3 hours”
“It was meh for me if anything. The art is beautiful but definitely not worth full price though. You can finish the game in about 3 hours, so get it on a sale.”

“This will sound bizarre, but I almost wish this game was slower. The exact same amount of content, just... the okomotive is slower. Or things are more spread out... It's WAY too frenetic. You are constantly running from…”

“FAR: Lone Sails is a quiet journey across a dried ocean in a machine that constantly needs attention. You refuel it, repair it and keep it moving while the world around you stays almost completely silent. No enemies, no dialogue, no real pressure. Just distance, wind, and the…”

I enjoyed this journey, keeping the locomotive up and running, stopping to solve puzzles and keep going afterwards. The backgrounds…”

I only had a few glimpses of game screenshots prior to playing it and I have to say it's a great indie game with an impressive art direction. During my entire playtime and despite the gloomy undertones of the post-apocalyptic world, I…”
