Spiritfarer®: Farewell Edition

Where to begin with this game... Its a 2d Side-scroller type of game but it has incredible story depth and when I first played it, it felt like I coulden't stop until I had completely finished it. The main mechanics of the game are very fun as well, and thinking about it it mirrors a lot of what Dredge(another great game in my opinion) has to offer, from fishing, to building a bigger boat(in this case, a raft), to doing side quests and connecting people from different islands around the map. I don't think I can play this game again, due to how sad the story is, but man it packs a punch and i've been chasing that high ever since with other games, books, ect. It remains on one of my top 5 games ever that i've played so far, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I can only hope that theres someday a sequel to this game and I can play more in this incredible world that has been built.

9 out of 10 Paradoxically, Spiritfarer: Farewell is a game about death that can be calming, put you in a positive mood, and even have a certain therapeutic effect. Gameplay-wise, it is a mix of farming and exploring a 2D open world, seasoned with situational mini-games. And, of course, there is the story, which moves you through the game. The gameplay itself is very relaxed, but I can't call it shallow or boring: while going through the main story, there is always something to do. The game looks and plays wonderfully on the Steam Deck, and the soundtrack is perfectly fine as well. The plot and story also do their job very well: they are nothing groundbreaking, but they very gently and smoothly immerse you in a distinctly positive-melancholic mood. In other words, this is one of those games where each individual element is done at a good, but not outstanding, level, yet together, combined with the theme it explores and the way the story is presented, they create a rather strong mood for the player.

PRZEPIĘKNA GRA! Delikatnie porusza bardzo ważny dla mnie temat, temat śmierci, opiekuje się tym tematem, pomaga nam się z nim oswoić w subtelny sposób. Mechanika także jest przyjemna! Dialogi są ciekawe chociaż przydługawe. Niektóre czynności bardzo powtarzalne, jak nie jesteś odporny na to to może Ciebie to zniechęcić, ja mam autyzm to mi super weszło :D

My gf wasnt much of a gamer but she wanted to try them out, this was the first game we played together in the local co-op mode, and we both loved it. Amazing art style, great progression and pacing never felt like i was bored or the game got repetetive, the movement is smooth and fun and the story is amazing till now. Very cozy and very beginner friendly, still yet to finish but love it fully

Я не знаю, как описать свои чувства по отношению к этой игре... Мне нравится музыка, дизайн, сюжет, персонажи... Но мне ужасно не нравится геймплей. Он всё портит и раздражает. Вторую половину игры я просто заставляла себя проходить. Этот бесконечный гринд, бесконечное перемещение туда-сюда... Когда Стелла впервые падает, собирая какой-то овощ, ты думаешь: «Какая милая анимация!», но на 50-й раз это уже утомляет, и ты даже не можешь её скипнуть. Геймплей испортил впечатление от самой игры.

Si estas en un mal momento o solo quieres relajarte definitivamente juegalo, la musica, jugabilidad, todo es bello

Spiritfarer it's one of the most beautiful, charming, and cozy games. I loved the animations, the art style, the characters, the ship management, the gathering, and the mini-games. It's my comfort zone. I highly recommend it; it's a little masterpiece.
