Steam review snapshots
It gives a vibe that is between Firewatch and Life is Strange, but without all the forced action, stress, adrenaline those game…There is still enough room left to explore left out questions and answers given, that make up for at least another playthrough.I wouldn’t describe Far from Noise as a “game"… it is more of an emotional “experience”.The artwork is playful, with vibrant cyan and magenta hues creating a dreamlike atmosphere.Why it fits
