Far: Changing Tides is a lovely, contemplative side-scrolling platformer about the end of the world. You’re the captain and sole passenger of a creaky steampunk sailboat, sailing east for unspecified reasons. Traveling demands you raise your mast and catch a breeze or scavenge for burnable salvage to fuel your engine, which requires jumping up and down on an Industrial-era bellows. Sailing segments are punctuated by environmental puzzles that tease your brain but never prod it. Far: Changing Tides offers just enough engagement to distract without becoming overwhelming, hitting that sweet spot for a lazy Sunday.
