Описание
Особенности
- Добывайте, выращивайте, создавайте. Добывайте 14 разных видов сырья: древесину, камень, глину, металлическую руду, травы, мёд и многое другое. Заготавливайте 17 видов пищи, включая дикорастущие ягоды, рыбу и дичь, а также 10 видов различных посевных культур. Создавайте 32 вида предметов и материалов в рамках многоуровневой экономики.
- Стройте и развивайтесь. Вам доступно более 50 различных зданий. Постройте скромное поселение и превратите его в оживлённый город. С ростом процветания поселение будет привлекать новых жителей, а городской центр и жильё пройдут несколько стадий развития. Улучшайте производственные здания, чтобы повысить их эффективность и получить возможность создавать более сложные предметы.
- Развитая система сельского хозяйства. Выбирайте из 10 видов сельскохозяйственных культур с разными характеристиками и организуйте севооборот, чтобы сохранить плодородность почвы, не потерять урожай из-за засухи или заморозков и предотвратить болезни растений. Возделывайте поля, удаляйте сорняки и камни, повышайте плодородность и регулируйте состав почв, чтобы получить максимальный урожай и накормить население.
- Продвинутая симуляция города. Поселенцы живут своей жизнью и выполняют работу в реальном времени. Вы можете наблюдать, как они переносят сырьё из отдалённых рудников в город для последующей переработки и создания предметов; как доставляют пищу и произведённые предметы в жилища и торговые лавки — или на склады для хранения. Развивайте дорожную сеть, стройте повозки и улучшайте методы хранения, чтобы оптимизировать перемещение товаров и предотвратить их порчу.
- Случайные карты. В Farthest Frontier можно играть снова и снова: благодаря случайной генерации ландшафта и ресурсов каждая игровая партия будет уникальной. Игроки могут регулировать количество водоёмов и гор на местности и создавать невероятные карты, которые сами по себе станут сложнейшим испытанием.
- Идиллия или хаос. Настраиваемые параметры сложности позволяют создать спокойную игру без вторжений и эпидемий — или выставить максимальную сложность, которая станет серьёзным испытанием даже для самого опытного градостроителя.
- Взаимодействие со средой. Развивайте экономику исходя из того, какое сырьё вам доступно, и производите товары для обмена на те ресурсы, которых вам недостаёт. Стройте ограды, чтобы олени не вытоптали ваши поля, а медведи не добрались до погребов с пищей. Размещайте колодцы в тени деревьев, чтобы не допустить пересыхания. Расчищайте землю под сельскохозяйственные посадки, но старайтесь сохранить важные дикорастущие ресурсы вроде ягод и целебных трав.
- Старые добрые болезни! Обеспечьте своих поселенцев чистой питьевой водой, чтобы избежать вспышек дизентерии и холеры. Собирайте ягоды и сажайте овощи, чтобы обеспечить им разнообразное питание и защитить от цинги. Убедитесь, что они обуты и одеты — это снижает риск подцепить столбняк, бешенство или простуду. Постройте хижину целителя, чтобы изолировать больных и обеспечить их травами и лекарствами. И не забывайте о грызунах, разносящих ужасную бубонную чуму — утилизируйте мусор, надёжно храните пищу и пользуйтесь услугами крысоловов.
- Отражайте вторжения. Вы можете начать игру в мирном режиме, и тогда вам вообще не придётся сражаться — или выбрать подходящий уровень сложности, при котором на город будут нападать налётчики. Стройте деревянные частоколы и каменные стены, возводите башни и казармы, нанимайте и обеспечивайте снаряжением солдат, которые будут защищать город. Чем богаче станет ваше поселение, тем чаще на него будет падать алчный взор разбойников и чужеземных армий.

Unlike other City and Settlement games. I can play think for hours and hours. No end game right now but looking forward to final release. Early game is really fun
If you liked Banished, this is a great successor (intended or not) I love the depth of it, tho I haven't played a ton. I do very much enjoy this type of game. Also I always love a game that allows me to step away and take care of things only to come back and miss nothing. I will also say I love the way it looks. I don't feel anything was sacrificed (aka graphics for gameplay or vice versa). The menu's are a bit overwhelming to start, but that is typical in any 4x game. Well done!
Farthest Frontier is a charming city-builder game. I'd consider it a spiritual successor to Banished with more focus on working towards efficiency within your city. The art style and music create an atmosphere that draws you in. The game is a good balance of some straightforward features combined with opportunities for deep optimisation.
The game is early access, so balance remains something that is adjusted. For me, the transition into T4 is a bit of a slog, and I think that deep mines are something that often feel unrewarding. I also think there's a bit of jankiness with seasonal workers (e.g., farmers automatically turning into laborers in winter) that add needless micro. It's why you've seen the popularity of the seasonal jobs mods. In the early and middle game adding those extra workers is helpful, and in the early game I especially like the idea of farmers going into workshops for the winter; it'd be nice to automate/set a condition/flip a switch the ability to do this, or it'd be helpful to allow an option for "pause when winter comes" or "pause for change of season" for the player to opt into a prompt to reallocate farmers and/or foragers without just relying on working memory.
As for the developer, Crate Entertainment is one of the best in the business. Like with their Grim Dawn, their first release, I know that they'll continue to work on and care for this game for many years. Crate is a passionate developer that treats both their game and fans with respect, integrity, and care. Grim Dawn is a good comparison because, like FF, there are engine limitations; I've watched Crate push their game engines to the limits with consistent optimisation, refactoring, etc. throughout years of free patches as well as releases. Unity engine willing, I can absolutely see a future of bridges and guards walking on walls. As for the game's balance, again GD is a good comparison - there are frequent balance patches, and Crate will probably be making thoughtful, free patches for FF a decade from now.
I adore this game. I love building up from scratch and seeing how far I can go. This game filled a role in my selection of games that I didn't know I had been missing. I can leave it for a stretch and come right back and pick up right where I left. Although there will always be some features that I would like to be a bit different like the flattening tool. But overall those aren't deal breakers for me. I recommend it for those who want that more historical itch with beautiful graphics.
While there is a bit of a difficulty curve learning how this goes, once you get far enough in and know what you are doing, this game is pretty fun! I'd strongly recommend playing this for at least a while until you grow bored and move to something else.
The game is chill, music is great and the town management difficulty to manageable. However, much features of this game are still in need for optimization. Storage management, civilians routing issues and the game-play frameworks have been the troubling factors since the early access till now. And because the nature of how "people" walk, the combat system is abysmal to manage, you either build your settlement like a tower defense at every corner, or you throw in all your troops into meat grinder hoping most of them will survive. Highly suggest integrating better and more dynamic defensive structure and strategic gameplay.
Definitely can be set up for a casual city building experience. sometimes i just want to build a city and not be bothered by attacks, which the casual difficulty pretty much encompasses that, i made it to year 7 and never attacked. graphics are great, UI and HUD is good, not confusing once you get the hang of it.
I love the dynamics and, going back to gathering individual resources rather than just credits, just gets you so much more involved.
I enjoy these types of games but this game is missing something I can't quite put my finger on, some sort of spark or catch. In short its boring and doesn't keep my attention for more than 30 minutes and I don't know why.
I always loved playing survival type town builders, and this game is, so far, one of my favorites. Whether you prefer a casual play style, or challenge yourself with harsh weather and invading hordes, this game has it all. A really fun and relaxing game if you are planning on chilling with your favorite podcast or just listening to music. Overall, a fun and enjoyable game!
A definite successor of Banished,
I really enjoyed the Easter eggs from grim dawn included, scorv got a good laugh out of me so props to crate entertainment for that
I've completed my first play through a little over 50 hours playing the game with no speed up on normal, i'll definitely try on a harder next time for more challenge as i only was caught off guard once by raiders
Thoughts
- wagoners waiting for a task while labourers trek across the map to mines
* suggest having the ability to designate a wagon route between a mine and stock yard (1 wagon per mine) and horses can be applied to wagoners like barrels to food supply to improve speed further ( i barely had a use for horses)
*relic for increase difficulty from wildlife and raiders sold for cheaper to allow players who want a challenger
+ well worth the price tag
+ very quaint atmospheric
- predators attack alarm had to be clicked every time to view details even if it was just an alert that a predator was chased away, so i wish the alerts were separate
*make wax easier to come by it was a real bottle neck waiting on bees as my village could only fit 8 in the walls
looking forward to 1.0
This game is a spiritual successor to my favorite town builder, Banished. It's beautiful, the mechanics are fairly well balanced, the music is amazing. My biggest complaint is the speed of the game, which only goes up to 3x and feels incredibly slow. I've read that there is a 5x and 10x speed available, but they are disabled in the game files and can't be edited by the user. Please re-enable them thanks
Reviewed at version 0.9.6c. Love this game. It feels complete at this point, I have very few complaints. The hard mode feels appropriately like actually trying to feed a village in untamed wilds. The level of complexity is deep, but it's approachable rather than overwhelming. I love the way they handle crop rotation and trade. It feels slow unless you play it on max speed, but then it's fine.
This is a 9.5/10 for me. My only gripe is I would like more variable map terrain. Water bodies and mountains are generally round, no rivers. I would love rivers and bridges to break it up and make me adjust my village layout more. I would also really like sliders in random map generation to force more mountains or lakes. I like the random maps, but I find myself rerolling several times so that I don't just get a large landmass without variation. Hopefully more map variety is coming. If it never does, it's still an excellent game.
TLDR - amazing game for the price, Early Access seems basically done and game is very polished. a mostly relaxing city builder along the lines of Anno light
The core Gameplay is very similar to Surviving the Aftermath. Supply chains are less clear than Anno and similar games, which makes it lean to a more relaxed gameplay rather than spreadsheeting. Just buying and stockpiling things is a legit tactic here, no need to calculate in- and outputs. Combat is basic but functional I guess? I'd like to see better defensive options in the future, just lining up troops is a bit underwhelming. Custom maps would be great, randomized are all too samy for my taste. Replayablity is therefore limited despite this genre being sandbox optimized.
Where I'm at - For the money I spent I got more than enough enjoyment to call it a great game. I'll come back for sure, but in order to really put in hours, I'd need content Expansions (that I'd happily pay for. the price for the curret game is fair after all) or larger mods
I have been playing off and on. It is but isn't a difficult game to understand and comprehend. I am definitely more biased towards city builders and this scratches a primordial itch in my cranium that other builders aren't scratching. I know it sounds weird and based on the other games I've played for much longer this is definitely worth it as a city builder.
Great game, i like interface! Deep and joicy gameplay and complex strategy type! Definetly makes your brains work! love it
the game was fine at the start, but as the population grows the game struggles to load in your file save. ive now reached a point where it does not load in at all, refund requested
update: im on a 4080 super with a 7800x3d so hardware isnt an issue
Beautifully designed game. The graphics is wonderful, the music is soothing. It's more emphasize on the supply chain, defense, 4x kind of game with city planning in mind.
great fun game you can get lost in for hours.
if you like manor lords, building towns and upgrading you will like this game.
I really do like this game despite some of the weirdness of early access. Management in the game could use work, in that it's easy to miss things. I like all the customization possible in terms of the interface and toggles. My favorite game is Grim Dawn so I was excited to try a different genre from the same developer. When checking/unchecking/toggling boxes, the sound effects are the same as Grim Dawn and I found that strangely comforting and delightful.
Combat is really clunky and it's difficult to control fighters so I've ended up turning that off for now. What I really like is how detailed game play is. I like the complexity of farming. There's lots to do. The game takes a big commitment, though, because leveling up into new tiers and getting new buildings takes whole heaps of time. Sometimes I've just let the game run and turned away to do other things. Because it does take so long to level up, it feels like a big accomplishment when achieved. It's a little annoying that the game really starts to lag when you get further with more villagers. Because isn't that the whole point? I have a powerful computer. I don't think it should struggle as much as it does later in play. I even adjusted the video settings and it didn't do much of anything.
I recommend the game but certainly looking forward to full release. Pretty good, needs work.
Great game. Trading is not fun. Not having all mining resources severely affects growth.
What are Wagons doing. They just sit there, while idiot miners and other labor keep taking produce to warehouse.
Fix these glitches and it will be an amazing game.
A very good game for EA. All of the mechanics are here and work well. The visuals are pleasing and the atmosphere is calm and relaxing as any city builder should be, I like the resource and industry tree for upgrading the city, I think they did a very good job with that. At the moment cities are limited to 500 people without potential performance issues, per the devs comments in game. If you are a city building enthusiast like me you will really enjoy this. I am looking forward to watching this game grow to full release version and I expect it to be a sold final product. I highly recomend it.
This game has become my newest addiction - I absolutely love it. If you like Banished, it's similar but much more detailed/complex. It has so much more to it, I couldn't go back to another sim because it would be too simple.
I've gotten the occasional bug, but nothing that couldn't be easily fixed. It's understandable though, considering the game is still in Early Access. I look forward to seeing what, if any, changes will be brought forth as time passes!
Tl/dr: my newest favourite game. Will NOT disappoint!

Farthest Frontier Review
Farthest Frontier is a captivating city-building simulation that blends resource management, survival mechanics, and stunning visuals into a cohesive and engaging experience. From the very beginning, the game immerses you in its intricately designed world, where your task is to guide a fledgling settlement to prosperity while navigating the challenges of the frontier.
One of the standout features of Farthest Frontier is its automated work system. The ability to assign tasks to laborers without having to micromanage every single action is a breath of fresh air. This system strikes a balance between giving players control over their settlement and allowing the game’s mechanics to handle the repetitive details. It’s a feature that feels intuitive and ensures that the gameplay remains smooth and enjoyable.
The economic management aspect of the game is another highlight. Whether it's balancing the production and consumption of resources, trading with other settlements, or planning for long-term growth, the economic systems are robust and rewarding. It’s deeply satisfying to see your settlement flourish as you make strategic decisions that impact both its immediate and future success.
The graphics are simply stunning. From the detailed buildings to the lush landscapes, every element of Farthest Frontier feels meticulously crafted. The attention to detail is evident in how seasons change the environment and how each structure evolves as your settlement grows. This visual fidelity not only enhances the gameplay but also draws you deeper into the world, making every accomplishment feel more tangible.
Additionally, the small details in the game, like watching villagers go about their daily tasks or the subtle animations in the environment, add layers of immersion that set Farthest Frontier apart from other games in the genre. These elements make the game feel alive and dynamic, further enriching the experience.
In conclusion, Farthest Frontier is a game that excels in its design and execution. The automated work system and economic management mechanics create a perfect blend of strategy and accessibility. Coupled with its breathtaking graphics and attention to detail, it’s a must-play for fans of city-building and management games. Whether you’re a seasoned strategist or a newcomer to the genre, Farthest Frontier offers an experience that is as rewarding as it is beautiful.
Not a bad game, but for me it suffers from the genre-disease of getting boring when your town is up and running. A game like Against the Storm have solved this issue, so this review is just a recommendation of a better game, according to my personal taste.
Its a wonderful game and I cannot wait for it to go live, the pre-release version is surprisingly well polished and very enjoyable.
i want multiplayer to build cities with friends and open trade routes with them or go to war with them
at the time, i like it. slow pace and peaceful. relax and watch a movie at the side game.
I don't play many resource management games, but I enjoy city builders and this one hits the sweet spot between casual and challenging. So far the only complaints I can muster up are about control issues with citizens and that I sometimes find myself building the same ways on each map. There isn't enough variety to the build options to make it worth while to make it unique. I always tend to use the same decorations and build layout because there is a "best way to do things" aspect that takes away the uniqueness of play over and over.
Great game, for simulator lover, not as deep as some others but clearly a survival/simulator game. I would give a 7/10
game's addicting, very similar to the game "Banished" while I think this game is better because it's more complicated than Banished so its more interersting overall, but it still lacks some features that Banished had that I really liked, like being able to make tunnels in mountains and other trivial stuff. But overall great game, would recommend to anyone who loves playing : Banished, Tropico 4/5/6
Occasionally you will have a villager get drunk at the local pub and start attacking others in the nearby vicinity. Pray that it is not one of your geared soldiers that initiates this, as they will cut through half your town only to wake up the next day and go back to work.
If you liked Banished, then this game is everything you're looking for. It does everything Banished did well and implements many of the features that people were begging for in Banished, such as raiders, hostile wildlife, and crop rotation.
Dang, I got hooked on this game, but, as you'll see, over two days I grinned for 16 hours and seemingly did everything the game has to offer. Once you hit a population of 500, the game tells you that it's caped and you can change it if you want at risk to lower graphics. I was tempted to bump the numbers, but then I realized that I had built and done just about everything in the game. I really want more. Some things that would be fun is to attack other cites, AOE's style, maybe? Or literally just anything to keep me going. My city was well planned out and I was ready for more. It's a thumbs up from me, but I do hope the deves have big dreams.
This game is great! Although still in early access, every update adds new features that make it exciting to play over and over.
I love the game and watching towns grow.
But, it takes so many times to Reroll a map just to get every basic resource that I end up getting bored and playing something else. I think the map generator code should guarantee water and basic resources, or provide users the option. Happy to change this review once map rerolls are reduced.
My type of game, you can play for survival or mostly in a sandbox and see if you can build big beautiful settlement. Its consumed a few hours from me and I do it all over again and will keep playing it in the future. Devs have been great, listening to feedback, addressing issues and concerns. Highly recommend the game.
This game has a lot of potential but way to many issues are overlooked. Things that should be simple and obvious, but turn out game breaking. for example if a villager dies the other villagers want to go pick up the body, even if its on the other side of the map and swarmed with enemies, there's no way to stop the villagers from doing this so eventually all your laborers die and your game is essentially over.
I'm 40 hours in, so i can't get my money back. but if i could i would
Huge potential with some game play mechanics, but suffers from the same issues as both end zone games. Too much of everything to feel like a focused experience. Too easy, too much to manage, too many resources that I lost track and lost interest. Too much of a chore to little reward
Love the level of detail focused towards the game! Watched a youtube series and got me hooked. Its a nice relaxing game from all the chaotic games in my library.
love the game, countless hours... but would love to see a update to add some dungeons.. police... ect. would love to see crime in the city for an update would be really neat. we have invaders already..
Absolutely amazing game! Looking forward to the full release!
I own most of major games in this genre - this is easily my #1 or #2 in the genre. If you like this sort of game - don't hesitate - get it.
I enjoyed playing Farthest Frontier and I appreciate the developers doing something different with their game
The only thing I distinctly remember not liking was the interface. It's so bulky, old looking and takes up way too much of the screen. They barely showed it in their Steam store screenshots, but it is easily the worst part of the game for me. Simply because it brings a whole 'outdated' feeling to an otherwise fresh take on the city building genre
But I believe that despite the game's slightly dated visuals, it still manages to look quite nice. The atmosphere, the general aesthetic and presentation is great. The sounds and music are nice. I enjoyed expanding my little town and reaching new technological milestones. Will definitely play it again when it leaves early-access
My go-to split screen game for when watching sports, documentaries or other media. A game like this is, imo, best to enjoy the journey. Immerse yourself in your city, and it's inhabitants. No min/maxing, no rush to get anywhere and this game will provide tons of enjoyment! As of early access, once I get to end game (all buildings unlocked/built) and large population is right about when I lose interest and take a break and wait for another itch. This game was my game of the year 2023 and it's come a decent ways from then! The itch still comes back but not as strong as it was last year (850 hours - I've done most everything). I've a feeling the itch will come back STRONG when 1.0 drops.
favorite game. i like it a lot. learning curve fs, but i like that i keep learning new things everytime.
I enjoy the influence I have over the direction the game takes form a strait forward urban simulation to combat strategies
I love this game!! fun to play for long times. beautiful lots of buildings and fun and its not full release yet.
if you like city builders play this game
The graphics are great, the UI is polished. But building sucks, for a colony builder. There is no tilt control so you're stuck at a pre-defined tilt and it's not so easy to align things. The grid only displays around the template of what you're placing to build, not the rest of the map, so that doesn't help assist in aligning to compensate for the major lack of tilt control. If you're picky where you want to place objects, I'd skip this. It takes too much unnecessary effort because of the lack of tilt. If you don't mind just plopping things down wherever, then go for it.
Absolute great sandbox medival city builder! Needs some time to really get into it and feel comfortable with all the mechanics, but then it rocks hard. Im curious about what comes next. Well done, Crate.
