Community Insight:
This game certainly makes you think on an exponentially large level.
Love the mechanics, pretty visuals. Feels like a puzzle game that someone made personally.
These games are always our favorite, great quality.
We loved the music on this one. We completed all of the other apps, every puzzle, every page. This last batch of notes is so strange. We couldnt follow it. Its like he has slowly turned mad. We swear he turned into his wife at some point? And his daughter destroys the world? Lol we want lore behind this. We want to understand. The second pages were harder to find on this one than the other onessometimes harder than figuring out how to find the 3rd page. You really need to look at everything critically. Some of the puzzles were a little challenging for once. We didnt mindlessly go through them. Please make another game. It says he ended up in 1955? We don't know if it is his madness but we think you should do an apocalyptic type of world.
Love Love Love Love all the Faraway games, not too hard & not to easy, just enough to work our old brain, perfect.
Pleaseeeeeee! Ive played them all more than once, worked on notes and secret levels! No other game is like this one. We dont want a variation of it or some elaborate wizard school academy whatever, we want another one like the Faraway series. (Not opposed to an immersive reader version like maginary but just really want a new game that isnt straight buns and trash!) Or do a masterclass to teach us how to make one? Sincerely your biggest fan, Stan.
Obsessed with all of these games please keep making them. We work in a high stress job and we find these to be a great brain teaser and relaxer when we just need to shutdown. They are so much fun.
Its really clever. Its fun and challenging.
Ive play the first three an d now the fourth. Great game. Relaxing.
We love these Faraway games. Theyre not too challenging but not so easy that theyre not fun. Very relaxing and cool graphics.
Awesome game! Just challenging enough to keep you playing.
Engaging game with interesting puzzles. Simple graphics and mechanics, but a highly complex, immersive world. Our favorite series of games.
We love the game so much we downloaded all of them but we were wondering after this one if there would be another one be cause well these games were great but shortish and we were wondering why the game why in some of the games then the third note was really hard to get even though it would involve the key to put in for the portal. Still in a little weird to find out and we would and we love this game so much we really hope theres another one.
Good logical puzzles, some make you think outside the box, so beware, music is very good, no so understanding the adventure though. Still very good game.
Have played every game in the series, love them all.
Well thought out. Love the music.
Its a really really good game we really like it and we think its really pretty! :3.
We loved this game when we first played it years ago. Lots of glitches on iPad OS 18.
On level 16 and have watched all the vids of people who have finished this game.. No matter what we do with those handlebars for that third note never pops up for us. So here we are stuck and, can get through, but we don't have the third note. We don't know if there is some twist the person leaving the video tutorial has a different set up than us.
The puzzles are getting a bit complex.
Idk where to start… So the first time we downloaded it everything was going fine. But then, we would try to play it and the app would just crash!! We know our phone isnt the thing thats doing it it is the app because we can go into other apps but not this one. Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz fix this!! We love the game and we want to play it! But we cant if it keeps crashing on us.
Just a little too easy. Difficulty level is higher than the previous Far Away games, but It doesnt take too much thought to burn through this in an hour, but it kept our attention. The game mechanics are good and theyve mixed it up a bit more this time, but we would still appreciate more challenge.
All the Faraway games claim to run iOS 9, and they all work fine except this final chapter. This game loads the opening logo page and then quits. It's a shame.
Level 9 Has Some Type Of Weird Glitch That Needs To Be Fixed When we Look Ate The Dominos The Squares Keep Getting Frozen And Not Switching Places So Can You Please Fix That And Then we May Change The Rating.
We were enjoying this game for about 10 levels before it closed itself and brought us to the iPad home screen. Ive tried offloading and reinstalling, as well as deleting and reinstalling. Now we just get the black splash screen and the app closes. Running iOS 13.4.1 on an iPad from 2019. Hope they fix this! UPDATE: Fixed.
We were enjoying the game immensely as we always do, but after our iPad updated to 13.4.1, the game wont launch. Offloaded game and re-downloaded (full version purchased), didnt fix the issue. When launched, youll get the splash screen, and then back to home screen of the iPad. Update. Issue has been fixed. Thank you.
We have really enjoyed all of the Faraway games, and we do like this one a lot but somewhere around level 14ish it became super glitchy. Spontaneously closed numerous times without saving our progress. Controls got laggy too. Thus the 4 out of 5. This is the only Faraway we have had this experience with.
We dont understand the puzzles. Ive played all of these so far, but we just dont get what the puzzles are looking for. And making every puzzle about numbers is difficult for those of us not naturally inclined in that area. This was not worth our money.
We love all your games. If not for us being homeless n living in a semi, we would purchase them ALL. Maybe later…..Im hoping.
Great graphics- pleasant music- and just challenging enough for morning coffee break.
Deductive and trial and error fun.
Great game but why does it say 68% complete when you finish all levels.
A bit too easy or repetitive in many places but we love their games nonetheless. Please keep the games coming.
Can you please make another Faraway game. The others are great and we really want more.
We love the Faraway games! The way the puzzles are solvable using trial and error and intuition to understand how they work is so seamless and something very rare in puzzle adventures. They continue to be unique and engaging.
We LOVE the faraway games! We mean their the BEST!!! Literally we mean what beats em? SO GOOD SO FUN AND THE BEST FREE GAME EVER. So download it now for FREE NOW!!! The ONLY BEST GAMES we KNOW we HAVE EVERY FARAWAY GAME.
Wish there were more FREE levels.
Great graphics and smooth game play.
A lot of fun! Love the puzzles.
This final installment (for now) of the Faraway game series is the most challenging yet, but we highly recommend it.
Very enjoyable puzzle games. We always look forward to them. Please keep it up.
So far we havent encountered any, pay to play parts and ads dont seem to bombard us, allows for some good gameplay. Only problem involves a bug that causes the game to crash upon opening.
We love all these puzzles but now it is crashing on our iphone xr. This happened after we purchased it once we completed the free trial.
Really enjoyed until update 13.4 – it now crashes on opening. Please fix ASAP. Thanks.
This is one of our favorite escape series, and this game was great. We really love the graphics and storyline, and the controls are pretty intuitive and easy to maneuver. However, Ive been running into a bug with the in-game photos. Each time we start a different level (Im redoing levels as we try to unlock the secret level), the photos we take in previous levels are randomly deleted or duplicated. Also, even if we only have a few photos saved, if we continue swiping past the oldest photo, we can continue swiping into blank photos.
Love this game so far,but when on got to level 17 the game crashes when using the hint with the circles.
We really like the Faraway games. Great graphics, sometimes challenging gameplay, and a decent back story. We bought this one as soon as it came out. The recent update fixed a bug we ran into. Thanks.
Love this series, but after completing a number of levels (10 ish?) the app crashes and will not reopen without crashing. The app is basically broken for us now. We guess our next step is to try reinstalling but we worry that wont fix it.
Anybody else have problems at level 16? The puzzles at the very end dont make sense and the hint shows a completely different puzzle! Its frustrating to get so close to the end, only to run into a glitch that makes it impossible to finish the game.
We love the Faraway series but Galactic Escape wasnt at the same level as the others.
