FAR: Lone Sails

ye aight ig minimum 30 characters

:)

I admit I wanted to like it, and I did finish it... in three days and less than 1.5 hours each day. The pros: + interesting and somehow innovative game mechanic The cons: - very few puzzles/challenges, no more than 4 in total, and all of them painfully easy - tiresome "global warming is bad mkay" idea. I hoped for more, for some kind of transcendental stuff, or something, anything except the crappy eco cataclysm that bores me to hell and back - very big minus is the fact that the developer(s) used government money to create a product and then sell it, SELL IT at full price! This is abject anti-competition things that you can only find in our dear EU, For those that don't know what I'm talking about, finish the game, read the credits in full... be amazed who sponsored this game and shocked that you actually payed money on it. Sadly this is not a true indie product even if it's disguise is almost perfect.

Description: You leave your home to sail your land boat toward something unknown. Pros: - Nice atmosphere (graphics, music, etc) - Simple, smooth controls Cons: - No story, explanations, or closure - Too much micromanagement to enjoy the atmosphere at times - Some obviously silly/illogical designs (ie. sails with holes pushing a land boat forward, a chair being equal to half the fuel of an oil drum) When I bought this game, I knew about the lack of story and explanations, but I thought that there would be an ambiguous ending with some form of closure, not one that made me feel like I completely wasted my time and money. If you really like pushing buttons, moving a character, carrying things, and sometimes doing nothing, you can play this game for about 3 hours. Alternatively, you could just watch the trailer.

And allready hard locked in a screen that does not go further, no matter what you do, with noexplanation whatsoever.
