"There is something therapeutic about tending to your ship and then just moving along slowly through the day. ... Not a lot of games are brave enough to tell a story this way, and to me, that’s exactly why FAR: Lone Sails is a gem." 5 / 5 - Platinum Rating
Catherine Ng Dellosa, pocketgamer.com

TouchArcade Game of the Week
"There are some games that aren’t really about testing your reflexes, or your high scoring prowess, or any of the many other video game-related skills, but are more about offering up an experience. And boy is FAR: Lone Sails ever an experience. ..."
Jared Nelson, toucharcade.com

### 1/5 — Ruined by UI

*2026-07-23, version 1.32*

The dpad button and jump are very hard to reach. Borderline unplayable.

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2026-06-15, version 1.32*

After seeing many gameplays throughout my childhood i am comfortable with concluding that i had finally got to experience the joy this game brought me

### 2/5 — Скучно

*2026-06-02*

Скучная, легкая игра. Прошел за 3 дня играя только по вечерам. Своих 350 руб. точно не стоит. Ни на одном этапе не задумался и не завис. Все предсказуемо и легко проходится. Не советую

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-03-09, version 1.32*

Absolutely amazing I love it

### 5/5 — Игра классная мне очень понравилась.

*2026-02-15*

Будет ли продолжение игры очень хотелось бы

### 5/5 — Perfect for me

*2025-12-06, version 1.32*

Was looking for a game that included some not too complicated puzzles and an immersive gameplay and this fit the bill. Enough of a challenge that some things took me a while to figure out but not so much that I looked up how to do something. The game is beautiful and simple. No instructions you just figure things out. Loved it!

### 1/5 — What a piece of garbage

*2025-11-03, version 1.32*

Boring boring boring uaawwwww

### 5/5 — ONE SPOT

*2025-10-29, version 1.32*

As a cartoonist I do not have a lot of time to play games. I leave one spot open on my main menu for one game. This has that spot. So why is it so great:
1. Supports offline play
2. Atmosphere: without saying or explaining a thing you are just there
3.Imagination: Images are present that bring to mind so many possibilities. It is like a good book. Creating “what ifs” in your mind.
4. Simple: Again for the time strained this a fun journey that uses basic mechanics, yet somehow feels so open.

If there is a sequel, I want a plant for my room. It would be cool to pick up trophies to decorate your  bedroom with.

Last note: I would love to feature your game in a couple of comic strips.  I have never offered this as I am trying to stay a way from “pop” culture but this feels timeless.

Update: found my plant. Spoiler there is one in the game already. Just had to look
Update No.2: I have finished the game. I have never been so eager at the end of a game for a sequel or additional content. I love the world they have created. I would be happy playing again just getting to chose color. Your guide color is red..maybe offer a green  or blue. 
Ultimately , in the end this is my current favorite game and the only mobile game I have ever played to finish. 
Great Job! Far: Changing Tides, would love to see this on iOS.

### 5/5 — Это шедевр

*2025-09-10*

Игра достойна покупки! Прошел на одном дыхании, рекомендую однозначно!

### 5/5 — Про саму игру

*2025-07-25*

Не ожидал, что затянет, игра обладает отличным визуалом и атмосферой, музыка отдельное удовольствие она ложится на происходящие отлично, да игры сама короткая на пару, тройку вечеров, но какая же она красивая. Не жалею, что потратился на неё.
