Издание Spiritfarer®: Farewell

this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. this is just a game. fck im sad.

A game about death (and life). Gorgeous graphics and music. A bit of a slog (40+ hours) but worth the investment.

Straight tears into the tissue box. What started as a game I didn't think I'd finish because the story felt underwhelming and the spirits in their comeuppances lacked sense, I'm so glad I stuck it out. Like a good book, it needed its building blocks that came together in a stunning ending. Fun to play, with freedom of how you tackle each zone, 10/10 cozy game and visual novel with an abundance in variety of quests and mini-games. 50 hours of gameplay, well worth the money spent, excellent job to the studio, I look forward to their other games. Only thing i wish i would have anticipated was my swapping to controller, wished i had bought it for the switch but dragged a cozy armchair to the computer instead.

Most beautiful game Ive ever played. I got lost in this game for hours, the beautifully art, smooth animation, and extremely interesting characters.
This game made me laugh and cry, emotional roller coaster is an understatement.

Not a difficult game. Just a cozy, cute game and 2 player mode with my friend was a ton of fun!

This game is an unforgettable journey that combines stunning visuals, heartfelt storytelling, and deeply meaningful gameplay.

The game tackles the delicate topic of saying goodbye with grace and emotional depth, making it as much about celebrating life as it is about loss. Each spirit's story is rich and unique, and their farewells are bittersweet moments that left me reflecting on my own relationships and memories.

This game isn’t just entertainment; it’s an experience. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates narrative-driven adventures, cozy management gameplay, or just a game with a heart as big as its world.

Don't look at my playtime, because I also bought it on Switch :)
It's a great game with awesome animations (especially cat's ones), music, story... I don't usually play "relax" type game, but this one stole a lot of hours from me and my wife :) Surprisingly, crafting wasn't boring; text amount was nearly perfect. Characters stories were well-written.
I can't find anything negative I can say about this game.

It is just good.

Very fun and relaxing to play with a good amount of exploration

Got this when it released on switch. It's just a great experience to go through. Cozy as hell. Amazing characters with amazing designs. Music that is an absolute vibe.

I got it a second time and gifted it to two friends because it is that good.

Fun and lovely game but the interface experience is a bit confusing.

4/5 - Good

It's a solid builder/grinder game. However I found the pacing to be off in the second half, compared to the beginning, where the design was tighter. Basically once you open the whole map, you get to a point where you have a very large boat but never more than 2-3 spirits on it at a time because of the way you're blocked from acquiring more. There is also a lot of tedium with travelling around or doing stuff, they could have included more quality of life features, such as:
- fast travelling directly from a bus stop to any location, or vice versa, so you don't suffer the bus detour twice
- cooking from the recipe book so you don't need to remember recipes and then manually select ingredients
- when shopping, seeing how much of an item you already have so you know at a glance if you should buy more
- Location name visible on the map (with toggle) so I don't have to hover my mouse over every piece of land to find where I want to go.

This is one of the easiest games to fall in love with. It's clever without being cringe, it's easy without being boring. It is a slow burn that doesn't waste your time. Progression is satisfying and linear in a way that doesn't feel limiting. I highly recommend this game.

Saying goodbye is the worst part of this game. Some of the characters, especially early in, hit so close to home for me that it's difficult to continue. I want to, I desperately do, but this game hurts me on an emotional level.

I cannot really recommend this game to people that are highly empathetic. It really does hurt.

gorgeous soundtrack dialogue character interactions, combines cute and silly with real and meaningful undertones. i love this game, 10/10 would 1000 percent recommend you buy it when it on sale (which it is quite a lot)

Perfect for players who love cozy games. There are a ton of things to do so you won't notice time passing while you are playing. The story line is pretty good too and will keep you engaged for a long time while playing.

This game is so calming, and it is truly a wonderful experience. If you are looking for a cozy game that isn't a farming sim i'd recommend Spiritfarer. Though you do need to farm a tiny bit there is so so much more to the game and the growth song is beautiful <3

I feel like this game doesn't deserve the Overwhelmingly Positive reviews. It's a good game, it builds the atmosphere well, the OST is brilliant, and the art style is gorgeous. After that ... There's nothing. It's what every gamer hates. Fetch quests. Fetch quests. AND ... More fetch quests. You wait on a boat to move to some location grab items and do it again. That's the entire loop. I've been doing this for ELEVEN hours ... The game says I'm 20% complete. But I'm 100% over it. And this obnoxiously beautiful fetch quest game.

I'm going to get "you're missing the point" comments, but needing to talk, hug, and feed my tamagotchis/pets/passengers feels more like a chore and the "reward" is they leave if I do it well enough ... ? So why should I invest the effort (beyond fetch quests which moves the story along) into them?

This game didn't need to be 10 hours long and I would have loved it, praised it even. But now I have 8 different quests pulling me (literally) in 8 different locations and I have to hear the NPCs drone on about the same shit (Atul, STFU about your fried chicken, when I find it, you'll get it) because my boat takes an entire in-game day to get half way to a destination ... I originally thought the reason I couldn't skip so many animations was because the developers wanted to squeeze every single frame out of the hand-drawn artstyle. It's actually because you'll have nothing to do for long periods of time so you better enjoy this NEAT WATERING CAN animation for the SEVENTEENTH TIME today!

Again, this game is gorgeous. It's the epitome of all form, no function. It's great to look at, but there's nothing going on upstairs. Games like this need not be longer than 10 hours. Padding the game hours with **MASSIVE** wait times to get to the great artstyle, music, atmosphere, and personalities was such a depressing and grave mistake.

One of the most beautiful games I've ever had the chance to experience. Been crying for most of the game, and left in some pretty deep thought with the memories dredged up. Like, just endless good vibes to the folx that made this.

I have played this game over and over, it's beautiful and one of my favorites. The artbook is really cool too, and the music makes me feel feelings! 10/10 would play again!

i'm not one for the "chill" type of games like animal crossing or stardew valley, but even though it's similar in gameplay to those games, the story is what makes this one such a high-tier favorite for me. it's so beautifully melancholic, all the characters are unique and well-written (as well as the designs being amazing), this game is worth every penny.

I will one day make it to the end of this game, I keep getting too sad to finish it

One of the most beautiful games I've played. Great way to discuss death with kids.

I have the best time, waking up and playing this game to my morning coffee. The art is beautiful, the soundtrack is so relaxing and atmospheric. The gameplay is not challenging enough for my competetive afternoon self, but just after waking up, the engaging story, the simple mini games, and the chill exploration is just perfect! Would buy again

One of the most beautiful games ive ever played, both the art and the story. The mechanics are super fun and cozy. Sad but it really brings light to certain topics.

This game is amazing with so many different emotions handled and beautiful graphics and music. I haven't played this for a few years but I'm about to get back into it and I could not be more excited! It is 100% worth it and I don't regret getting this game at all. If anything it's underpriced for how amazing it is

Beautiful. On a surface level the art and music is a masterpiece. Nothing about this game and the quests feel like a grind. Throughout the story you make emotional connections which lead me to crying more times than I could count. This game is moving and I'd recommend to anyone who loves cozy games. I was originally hesitant to buy this game when it was recommended to me, but quickly it became one of my favourite games that I couldn't put down. I finished it in three days and am starting a second run. And to top it all off you have a cat companion.

Highly recommendable.
The game can be a little grindy and linear at times, but that was entirely my own fault.
I like to explore and roam, and that will lead you astray, but not more than it's still fixable. The game will just take longer to finish.
Can only recommend you take your time, when playing this very unique game. Time well spend exploring, talking to the NPC's on the many many islands, as well as unlocking abilities, details and stories along the way.

The NPC's, their personalities, appearance, the dialogue and their destinies makes this game one of my favorites. Thank you for making this game devs!

The game will have you smiling, very close to tears (heck beyond tears with some NPC's), and unwilling to take your fav NPC's to the other side, when they tell you it's time for them to cross to the other side.

I loved this game, it has really beautiful art, movement, and environments, and has a compelling story line while still being very open ended enough to choose your own path.

Beautiful game exploring the stages of dying and grief. Cute indie aesthetic, cooking, crafting, fishing, farming, exploring the ocean and various islands, making new friends, customizing your boat, with a beautiful soundtrack and immersive storyline - 10/10 would recommend. Did I mention your kittycat is your companion, and you get to hug everyone? Get this game, you're missing out if you haven't played it already!

One, if not the most beautiful game I have played. It feels cozy and somber, I enjoyed every minute I played so far which is a combination of the local coop experience, the phenomenal art style and setting, and the well thought through progression system. The character design is really well done and all spirits so far have enriched the story and felt like they had their rightful place in this game adding to a genuinely one of its kind experience. A masterpiece, cannot recommend it more!

Very cozy with lovable characters. Okay to play at slow pace.

Usefulness is an easy way to meaningfulness. But not a trustworthy one. It vanishes as quickly as we do. And so it seems the only hope humanity has for transcendence is through art. Meaningfulness pulled from our chaotic minds. Not for utility, but for its own sake. And after the artist has been long gone, turned to dust, the art remains. And even after the last one of all humans will have returned to the primordial chaos, provided that we have protected it, Art will remain. And so it is that art alone is left in our wake. The only veritable form of transcendence to ever have been in our grasp. Proof of our existence, and of our pitiful efforts to raise from the chaos. As would some unknown script from a long-gone power.

Well, well, now, Stella. Ozymandias beckons.

Let's go.

I am not one to cry easily from video games. But so far, i haven't released or even met all the characters and every single one i've teared up. Amazing game.

Every second of this game is dripping with passion, artistry and sincerity. It is incredibly polished and feels great to play. It is delightful, funny, and somber all at once and I didn't want it to end. Has easily become one of my favorite single player games.

Really good game. thanks to everyone for your work hard.
I love this game. Thank you for teach me about "LIFE"

Beautiful game. It's about death and "letting go", so the overriding mood is bittersweet, and it's a really heartfelt and meaningful story. Aside from the storyline, a lot of the gameplay revolves around gathering and spending resources (from farming, mining, chopping trees, rearing livestock...), but not in a way that ever feels stressful. I found it a really addictive loop. There were some platforming challenges I found difficult, being not very good at platforming, but for the most part this was an excellent, immersive cozy game.

The only negative thing I could really say about it is that the later spirits aren't as likeable as the first several, and I reached an awkward point where I'd already been given the final quest to end the game but still hadn't finished bringing those last couple of spirits through the Everdoor. It felt like maybe, that sequence of quests leading up to the "now go do the ending" quest should have triggered a bit later. I'd also have appreciated it if there were still new islands to discover and sidequests more substantial than "find treasure chests in the ocean" and "run errands for Francis" as I worked towards 100% achievements... but overall these things didn't affect my enjoyment of the game much. It's still, on the whole, a brilliant, artistic game. If you haven't got around to playing it already, I recommend it.

I have played this game on other platforms than the PC and every time I play I fall more in love with the game. The artwork is beautiful, the storylines are bittersweet, and this game has helped me process some unresolved emotions. I would always recommend this game.

This game is a genuine masterpiece. Its so emotional, with such a beautiful art style an incredibly fun game-play loop. This game is pure melancholy, to the point where it hurts to play at times, knowing that eventually that you'll reach the bittersweet end. I highly recommend this game, i think its something everyone should go into blind without help and just, enjoying the experience that this game brings.

deep story, simple town-management and platforming adventure gameplay

Sometimes it feels like the UX and workflow for doing the simplest task can be so needlessly strung out and frustrating. Like talking to the bus seal, or knowing which platforms of the dragon you can jump onto. The visuals, writing and art are beautiful; the experience of the gameplay to get there is not.

A really fun, calming game for when you don't want anything to be too intense. If you like walking around Zelda to listen to the music and chat with shopkeepers, this game is for you. Also, teaches life skills for parent looking for a game that isn't violent for their kids. They do need to be able to read and they will learn patience.

A charming game about death and grief. The cake is the storytelling, and the icing is the gameplay. The gameplay is a Metroidvania-esque town-builder with farming, gathering, crafting, building, platforming, and no combat.

The character writing is extremely well done and I grew attached to at least half the crew. I was moved to tears twice by the story. There's also a good amount of comedy to balance out the heaviness of the story.

I 100%'d the game in about 50 hours. There was more story than I thought there would be and I met many more characters than I thought I would. I played as a bit of an over-prepared hoarder so some of the gathering and the crafting mini-games became a bit boring from overuse, but were fun enough to progress through nonetheless.

If you want to emotionally open up to the story and characters, this game is probably a 10/10.
If you're a dialogue skipper, you should probably skip this one.

P.S. Here's my biggest QoL tip: You don't need to water your plants, they just grow a bit slower when they're thirsty. You're welcome.

I played this with my daughter. It was an incredibly moving experience that brought us closer together and for that I will never be able to express enough gratitude for the devs who created it.

Definitely recommended, phenomenal game.

It's been over a year since I last played this game, and to this day I still keep thinking about it. Do you love character-driven stories (and crying a river)? Then Spiritfarer is for you. Within the gameplay you gotta to do a lot of management when it comes to upgrading the boat, farming for materials, making food and the like, which I personally am not a fan of when it comes to games in general, but you also have a lot of exploration and some platforming which I DO love. Overall the characters, the stories, the atmosphere, the art and the concept won me over completely.

10/10 this game will always have a special place in my heart.

Great game. Beautiful art and music. Interesting story.
There isn't much replay value, unless you want to find every chest. My first playthrough took ~36 hrs.

This game is so cute!!!

So far, I've cried both happy and sad tears; the characters are so easy to get attached to and seeing their arcs play out is so satisfying. Andddd, the little cat companion you have throughout all of your journeys just adds to the cutesie nature of the game.

I genuinely love this game and totally recommend

I adore this game.

It's beautiful.
Gameplay is smooth.
Music is amazing.
Characters will stay with you long after you've finished the game.

If you're terrible at platformers like me, some parts will be frustrating (mostly late game), but they're doable. I suck, I hate frustrating games, but I still finished it and it felt good. I actually got better without too much annoyance and during most levels you can just start over without a time limit or penalty.

This game is fantastic! An 11/10, and a wonderful experience. I got this game on sale for 8 dollars, and it made me cry, it made me laugh and it made me feel deep emotion for these characters. I cried at the ending and there were no words even spoken at the time. It had quite the impact on me and that's more than I can say a lot of triple A titles.

Shout out to the whole team at Thunder Lotus, you guys knocked it out of the park! :)

Lo que más me gusta del juego es la historia, como aprender a decir adiós, y por su puesto, que su principal personaje es femenino, Stella, y tiene un gatito, Daffodil, el cual amo sus orejitas en forma de flor. Los personajes que aparecen son auténticos y tienen personalidades muy diferentes, los amé a todos y lloré en cada despedida :( los echo de menos!

there is nothing worse than getting to meet all these lovely spirits, especially my beautiful boy Stanley, and remembering this is a game about death and i have to let them all go eventually..
