    Cool little game that overstayed its welcome. Fun at the start learning the mechanics, upgrading the ship and solving puzzles. But got old really fast late game. Ending credits cannot be skipped or fast forwarded. Alt-F4 out of there. I have no respect for games that don't respect gamers' time.

    Interesting, relaxing little game. Run time is about 4 hours. 20 € on steam seems a bit too much though. You would be better off putting it on the wish-list and waiting for a sale.

    Yes, 2 and a half years later, we get the deserved FAR sequel, with more gimmicks, more world-building (even though some doesn't make sense) and a much more satisfying ending to bookend these two relaxing games!

    It's okay, pretty much like the first part.
    I wish they added more complex mechanics or a story or movement in more directions, but the boat is cool

    Truly a masterpiece! I really liked the first game, but this one was amazing. The soundtrack and art were just surreal and made the experience completely worth the trip. The ship is really cool to use and i'm glad that there is more control over the vehicle than the first one, however it's a bit hard to keep track of everything.

    FAR: Changing tides, compared to its previous entry, increases in complexity through adding more components to manage on your ship. While this makes the game more engaging, the atmosphere of the game suffers slightly. I only say slightly, as there were many instances where the game would allow you to put your sail up, and enjoy the scenery after a session of puzzling.

While this makes the game more engaging, the atmosphere of the game suffers slightly. I only say slightly, as there were many instances where the game would allow you to put your sail up, and enjoy the scenery after a session of puzzling. This is accompanied by an unforgettable soundtrack, that you would be humming even after you put down the controller.
    Overall, I recommend this game if you have an afternoon to spare. The game is 4 hours in run time, and, although it is on the more expensive side, it is a solid experience.    … Expand

    Slightly worse than first one but still enjoyable af some tasks felt tedious and felt less post apocalyptic than the first one.

    Although it doesn't add much to the first game, it still manages to give the same pleasure.

    FAR: Changing Tides has the player traverse through a submerged post-apocalyptic world, which is an experience that feels like a playable documentary. While definitely a fascinating journey to take, you won’t be able to fully appreciate it if you haven’t played its predecessor.

    FAR: Changing Tides is a phenomenal atmospheric game, as the visuals and sound design amalgamate wonderfully. However, you might be disappointed if you go into it expecting more.
