    A mournful yet bright and enormously warm-hearted adventure with a novel landship mechanic, sublime backdrops and a brilliant score. [Recommended]

    A game that offers us both a memorable journey and a place to call home. Of course, how much meaning can one have without the other? Far: Lone Sails gave me a wistful sense of both that I won’t soon forget. [RPS Recommended]

    Beneath it all is something human and primal: the desire to carry on, despite unthinkable odds. The desire to keep rolling rightward, to see what lies just beyond the limits of the screen. Few games take that desire as seriously as Far.

    Piece of art. One of the most original and best 2D platformers out there. Soundtrack is also excellent.
