90% off: Highly rated adventure game drops to $1.50 from $14.99 on Steam for the first time
Steam's latest deal brings the beautifully atmospheric adventure game FAR: Lone Sails for just $1.50 - a first-time 90% discount off its regular price of $14.99 (as per SteamDB). Released in 2018 by Okomotive, a Swiss game studio, the game takes players on a quiet yet captivating journey, where they guide their character across a dried-out seabed using a peculiar, sail-driven landship.
The standout feature of FAR: Lone Sails is its ability to put together an engaging story entirely without dialogue or explicit narrative, which very few games can do well. The game does a fantastic job of immersing players in exploration, puzzle-solving, and careful management of their "vehicle" as they travel through visually stunning landscapes. Critics have praised it for being emotionally evocative above everything else, using words such as "warm-hearted" and "transfixing" to describe the game.
Player reception for FAR: Lone Sails has been consistently positive, with an impressive 92.7% positive rating from over 20,000 Steam reviews. Reviewers from outlets like Eurogamer and GameSpot are also impressed by the game's memorable visuals, mechanics, and emotional depth, referring to it as an adventure that resonates long after completion.
The system requirements for FAR: Lone Sails are accessible for most modern PCs with at least an Intel Core i7 or AMD Phenom II processor, 8 GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 680 or AMD Radeon R9-280X graphics card. Even with lower specs, players can still enjoy the experience comfortably.
If you've been meaning to switch to a calm, relaxing game that looks stunning as well, now might be the perfect chance to dive in, especially considering it's at an all-time low price. This limited-time Steam deal ends on April 18, so you may want to grab it before it "sails" away (pun intended).
