Far Away is a VN with top-tier quality. Its gangster theme is rare and unique, the adventure story is intricate and well-crafted. There r 8 main plot routes, yet it surprisingly hits logical consistency. The 500k word script makes Beije, the city of sea and sand, vivid and full. The exclusive Cantonese VA has no rivals at all.

This is a very ambitious visual novel. The story takes place in a fictional isolated country that is in the sights of multiple other nations, and itself is divided by two conflicting gangs and the official rules at City Hall and the police force. Krosa, the protagonist, can end up taking multiple different paths and joining with most of those separate powers. The result is a very broad view of a 2-3 month period that largely covers the same events, but from multiple perspectives. There are some downsides to this, mostly from repetition. Since the same major events take place in every route you'll end up retreading old ground a lot. The story does make sure to vary things; Krosa may hear of a person's murder in one route, try to protect him in another, and be an active (if unwilling) accomplice in a third. Being able to see the events from other perspectives definitely helps expand the world building. The other problem is that some routes are just much better than others. One route I had high expectations for, as it would cover a completely separate section of the world, was just kind of a joke route. Krosa can join either gang but both of these routes were underwhelming in my view - she's forced to join one, and in the other they go way too hard on making the gang members the good guys. Krosa is an excellent protagonist. She's both charming and strong, and adaptable enough to work well in all her various roles and jobs. In most of the routes she will be working with flawed people or institutions, and brings her own values to each. Most of the local powers are made at least somewhat defensible even if flawed (except the major villain; some attempt is made to justify his actions, but not nearly enough. It's probably better they don't go too far here). Overall it's an excellent story. It's very ambitious and doesn't quite meet its own expectations, but the flaws are forgivable for what is done right. The translation is good. Not great, but an effort was made. There are some clear mistakes, odd word choices and such, but it's far from a hack job. There's a minor localization issue with the text advance - there's a short delay after a period, e.g. at the end of a sentence. The problem is that this delay also exists for any period, including stuff like "Mr. LastName" or even just "...". Is this a big issue? No, but it's mildly annoying. The biggest issue with the translation is in one of the climatic scenes, right after a big reveal to Krosa, and her response is... nothing. The entire text box was just left blank. It's clear enough what's happening from the context, but it's still a major issue. There is one other major technical issue. The skip-read-text option does not take conditions into account, only entire scenes. There is one scene with a group of spies where Krosa is optionally present - if she isn't there, the narration still covers the events. The problem is that what's said in the meeting is wildly different if she's there or not - they reveal their true intentions if she isn't there, and a sweet-sounding lie if she is. The skip-read-text feature treats both as the same scene. So if you were to see the not-present version first and see what the real plan is, go back to make different choices and skip all read text, you might notice that now she's at the meeting and think "wait, they're just telling her their plan? And she's not freaking out?". This is the only big example I saw, but it's possible there are others.

I think this is a really good visual novel with a good protagonist and a lot of depth. The story and lore of the world is very rich with a lot of cool characters, plots, and backstories. The Cantonese voice acting is great. Normally I am a fan of romance driven stories but Far Away does a great job of making the main character involved in the chaotic world without adding any romance. The sheer amount of choices is really cool but can also make it really tedious and confusing to find all the endings, so fast-skipping through stuff I seen already, is necessary. I also love the art style of this game, it's very charming. Overall a great, long experience.

It seems a fairly straightforward visual novel. Pretty well voiced, art is good, good enough storylines. Nothing jumped out and massively captured my interest and made it stand out among others, but at the same time it's not a purchase I regret either. I guess this gets a neutral, leaning-towards-positive review from me.
