    It was another pleasant experience, just like its predecessor. Visually more impressive, filled with moments that you'd want to screenshot. Slightly more complex gameplay wise, but puzzles are still pretty easy. Pacing was good, except one bit that felt a little drawn out (you'll know it when you're there). The music wasn't as memorable as the first game, but still pretty good. I was goingIt was another pleasant experience, just like its predecessor.

I was going to rate it 7, until the ending elevated to an 8. It was well-done, and opens up interesting opportunities for a possible sequel.… Expand

    I finished the game, the dn successful independent game I've been playing lately. Its subject, graphics and non-boring puzzles connect you to the game. Congratulations to the production team.

    You're in charge of taking care of your ship, so you drive it, cool it, repair it and figure out how to progress together. As a reward, it will take you through a beautiful environment to somewhere far over the horizon where you might find a new home. As well as the perfectly crafted splash of waves, the sound of the wind and the creaking of the remnants of civilization, there's some amazing music to accompany your journey through the silent world.

    Game length is about right and although there is very little narrative, the story does come full circle and has a satisfying conclusion. If you are looking for a chilled-out, unusual puzzle-solving game I heartily recommend this one.

    FAR: Changing Tides ably evokes the blissful passion of travel. It is the perfect antidote to overly-stuffed, bloated video games.
