About The Faraway Land
The Faraway Land is an open world and survival game. Immerse yourself in the relaxing atmosphere of a magical world filled with cute and dangerous creatures.
You are Theofin's creation, summoned to bring order to the world. Can you handle all challenges and dangers of this world?
You will have to explore an uncharted world filled with friends and foes. Collect resources, craft items, trade... Ride a pony, go through portals, the choice is all yours!
Keep an eye at your conditions. Just like the locals, you will need food and water. Battle diseases and illnesses, be careful with the plague! As you progress, watch yourself acquiring new qualities, each one coming with new challenges.
To learn new recipes, you must cope with the locals. They arrived first and already know the ways of this land. Help them out and they won't mind sharing their knowledge with you!
Are you tired of growing your own stuff to make new stuff? Then maybe you should try talking to the various merchants scattered around the islands. All you will need is some money to pay for it all...
Build your own home sweet home! Learn a variety of construction blueprints from the villagers to make your home as homey as it can be! Collect the different furniture blueprints to make your home extra especial! Be patient and you'll probably become a fully fledged part of the world.
Make your own garden! This magical world has many types of unique plants! Dig a hole and start planting to shape your garden as you see fit! Learn how to extract seeds with the locals and never go hungry.
Beyond the villages and towns the wilderness awaits! Wild animals, monsters and unusual creatures roam around these areas and will not always welcome strangers. Fortunatly, the locals also know how to defend themselves. Learn how to make armor and weapons with them and you will be well prepared to go on adventures!
Play online with friends, in a group up to four people. Together, you will face enemies, complete quests and learn to survive in this strange, magical world. But beware! You're not only sharing the adventure itself! Your revives, resources, food and structures will also take part on these numbers, so you will have to manage everything at your disposal and overcome the difficulties ahead. Don't worry, it is worth it. After all, two is better than one trying to catch the elusive turtle...

The Faraway Land invites players on a contemplative adventure through a hauntingly beautiful world filled with puzzles, secrets, and quiet storytelling. It’s less about action and more about atmosphere, reflection, and discovery. At its heart, The Faraway Land is an exploration-driven narrative game. You wander through lush, mysterious environments that blend nature and surreal elements, piecing together fragments of a larger story through environmental clues and subtle interactions. The puzzles are gentle but clever, encouraging players to think rather than rush. There’s no rush here — the game’s pace is deliberately slow, inviting moments of pause and awe. The visuals are striking in their simplicity — pastel-hued landscapes and soft textures combine with a dreamlike art style that perfectly complements the game’s themes of memory and loss. It’s a place that feels both familiar and alien, evoking emotions without heavy dialogue or exposition. The soundtrack is equally evocative, with ambient melodies and natural sounds that heighten immersion and deepen the emotional resonance of each scene.

Worked fine but then they launched a patch back sometime in 2022 and it hasn't worked since. I get the popup banner, followed by a black screen, and that's it. I've let it sit for up to 3 hours, just to see if it would progress. Nope. Can't minimize it. Can't ALT+F4 to close it. Have to force it closed through the task manager. Tried verifying the files. Tried reinstalling on two different types of drives (SATA & SSD). Tried adjusting my graphic hardware settings. Nope, doesn't work. Looking into the dicussion boards, it's clear I'm not the only one having this problem either.1 found this helpful
if black screen happen, just wait until it is ready, the owner is really kind and helpful in discord, the game is realistic1 found this helpful
Having fun, feels like a hidden gem. Give it a shot!
Love the game, graphics and the whole concept but there are quite a few issues here and there but over all manageable. The whole voxel 3d environment is done pretty well. The english translations are a slight bit off and may be confusing. Still waiting on some improvements which might still be coming slowly. Overall good game.
Nice game, I recommend!
