✦ AI summary

The Far Frontier is a casual puzzle-strategy hybrid that players note can be entertaining for passing time, but it suffers from a complete lack of tutorial, minimal strategic depth since much of the gameplay is automated, and broken achievements with no developer support since shortly after launch. The consensus is that the game is not worth purchasing given the abandoned state and fundamental design issues that leave players confused about core mechanics.

I bought this game after getting a half off price coupon from steam, and after playing with for a whopping 40 minutes there are already so many things wrong with it. Despite the fact I bought it for almost nothing, I will ask for a refund. - No tutorial (I had no idea I had to collect chests, was able to summon a hero, or get pieces for the god statue, I had to figure that out myself). - The game pretty much plays itself, it takes an automatic move, then allows you to click yourself. Some maps can be won by letting the game play on it's own. There's no strategy in that whatsoever. - I entertained myself by clicking the coins for a while since I had to wait to be able to click something, then figured out the game collects the money on it's own as well. - The chests, pieces for the god statue and especially the coins are only clickable half of the time. - You can pay to level up your units, but while playing, the units also level up themselves, it really feels like I'm throwing money at nothing. It's a thing you can do to unlock higher level equipment, which you also have to pay for to unlock it, and has to be replaced when your units die. - The graphics are far from being anything …

This was an interesting casual puzzle/strategy hybrid that had promise, the Dev appeared active and was responding to bug reports and all looked well. Then one day after a patch the achievements would no longer unlock and the Dev hasn't been seen nor heard from since... support and development ended just two months after launch and a year on, nothing has changed.

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.
