Far from Noise

What a beautiful story. I very much loved this game, very relaxing and calming. The one thing I wish it had was opposing dialogues though, a lot of what the character dialogue choices meant the same thing. Which is probably staying true to the character but doesn’t give much creative liberty to the person putting themselves in the characters shoes. For instance I would have continued to stargazing scene for longer. Or with the badger, it was a good lesson, I just wish the character would have fully been able to change her mind about the badger. Great game though, beautiful art and a nice pace. It was nice how we could pause the game.

Enjoyed the story line and lessons within.

Love this game! Been playing it on and off throughout the pandemic, okay mostly not playing it, though I have a game on my phone and another on my iPad for the subtle differences. It’s a great distraction and I feel a little bit better after 15 minutes or so.

Not much of a story. If you like a lot of pseudo-philosophical interactions, think Star Wars Jedi type stuff, then this is the app for you. Many adventure story apps use visual and written media to tell a story and allow the user to interact. This doesn’t. Single scene. Rudimentary graphics. Dialog balloons. No real advancement of a story. Same ocean background sound the whole time too. Really not much here. Too bad because the description makes it seem like it will be thought provoking and interesting. It is neither. It also is a major battery drain for some reason. It pulls current like no other app I have seen. And it isn’t even a fast action game with physics. Severely overpriced for what it is.

Got free therapy from a deer who cured my depression. Thanks

I usually love narrative games, but this was like listening to a long monologue about existence from someone who loves the sound of their own voice with no opportunity to contribute to the narrative. The protagonist dialog choices were all throw-away lines, so the point really does seem to be to read someone else's stream of consciousness writing. And after half an hour of playing it, I don't feel like anything developed or moved forward. It gets two stars for being really pretty, and for being a neat idea that was just poorly executed in my opinion.

What a wonderful experience, very deep and thoughtful, I only wish it would last longer, but that is a non issue. Buy this game and reward yourself... memorable for sure ...

I also have clinical depression and anxiety, so my answers tended to reflect that, but I enjoyed the outcome. I felt it was beautiful and fitting. That’s just me, but I wanted to add that for anyone that was worried about downloading this. It’s definitely not the happiest experience, but I cried and felt less alone afterwards.

This is definitely not a “game”. It’s a story, and an incredible one at that. When I finally reach the end I was deeply moved. Not all stories are in books or movies. Some stories are far from lawyers.

It felt very boring and depressing. A waste of money.
