About The Final Farewell
The Final Farewell is a cosy narrative adventure where you play as a lonely ghost. Among the shadows and echoes of the Whispering Woods, a misty Veil has fallen. Rumours abound of lost mortals who’ve had their memories stolen by the mist, and precious trinkets lie in wait, ready to be found…
You’ve awoken to find you have no memory of your past - and you’re a ghost! How did you come to pass? Memories once lost are not gone forever… Can you discover the clues of your former life and finally be at peace?
Seek out lost mortals who have come to lay their loved ones to rest. The misty Veil wipes their memories each time they venture into its murky haze, so it’s up to you to help locate forgotten trinkets.
Stay close to the light of campfires to lift your spirits and avoid the dangerous mist of the Veil. There are many secrets to be found in the Woods - but do you dare take the time to look? Spend too long, and the Veil will close in before you can return to your new mortal friend!
Inspect and identify precious belongings to see if you can assist in triggering a memory or two! As each mortal recalls their past, they grow one step closer to putting their loved one to rest - and saying goodbye forever.
A landing place for spirits, the Solstice Shrine is your force of teleportation to the Whispering Woods. In the safety of the Shrine, you can recharge and guide mortals to bid their loved ones adieu.
Unlock spiritual assistance as you complete each mortal’s story, allowing you to tackle the Veil with an extra advantage. Whether with a dash of light, or an encouraging word, each ghostly entity can help you find precious trinkets and uncover new memories!

Players consistently praise this short game for its touching exploration of grief, loss, and acceptance through beautiful art and emotional storytelling that resonates deeply with many. However, some players object to the inclusion of LGBTQ characters and themes, while others note minor frustrations with the veil mechanic's difficulty and unclear help system, though gameplay isn't the focus of the experience.
This game is short and sweet. It explores beautiful themes of loss, grief, and acceptance of death from a few perspectives. I was curious what the negative review was, and it was about LGBT themes, describing this game as themed around that and asking for a warning about it. There's two queer people in one portion of this game. It's not an insignificant piece, but it certainly isn't the whole game, and I think saying a game needs a warning for two people living and loving differently is crazy, especially when we all experience death. Given the game's theme, the story also isn't about queerness. My one gripe is that the veil can be a little difficult to navigate and come in very fast, and the help isn't necessarily ... helpful. That being said, the gameplay really doesn't feel like the focus of this game -- it's a short (sub-one-hour) experience about coping with loss with great writing and a sweet message. In that short time, it may just make you cry.4 found this helpful
I'm mad at the developers, but with love. Thank you. Beautiful game<3
This hit way too close to home. Loved every second of it and would recommend to everyone. But like everyone else said, grab those tissue boxes, you're going to need them.
Purchased for a child to help understand grief instead met with sexuality references and gender politics. Entirely unnecessary and unsuitable.
Sweet short game!
This was a lovely game - short but very sweet! The art was really amazing!
