Critic Reviews for Farthest Frontier
Farthest Frontier has a lot of what I look for in a survival city builder: intricate production and farming systems, tough challenges balanced with chill moments, and plenty of customization (you can turn off bandit raids, hostile wildlife, and even diseases if you want a more peaceful experience). There's also enough variety that each of my cities (I'm on my third now) feels like it has its own distinct storyline and history. I built Bee City and Gold Gulch, and I can't wait to see my new town's identity develop… provided my settlers survive the next bear attack.
Farthest Frontier needs a bit longer in the early access oven, but its realistic food systems and problem solving already provide a lot to enjoy.
Farthest Frontier is a game that can be both relaxing and challenging if the players want it so. The lovers of measured city building gameplay can find it very appealing, as each action is rewarding in both visual and gameplay sides. However, for a strategy game it doesn't have enough varieties for military or offensive building, thus hardcore fighters shouldn't judge it harshly. Overall, the game has potential to win over even more players than it already did in Earle Access, taking the place among other famous representatives of the genre. It has a lot to offer and even more potential to grow further.
If you're looking for a complex building strategy that pays close attention to detail, this is an excellent choice. However, be aware that progress is relatively slow and there is no full-fledged campaign.

Farthest Frontier will appeal to those who enjoy carefully managing their settlement without speeding up the passage of time, and the game will reward them with beautiful scenes of nature and medieval society.

Farthest Frontier emerges from Early Access as one of the best city builders around.
Farthest Frontier has its issues but still manages to be one of my new favorite city builders thanks to the sheer amount of depth in its economy and attention paid to gorgeous, expansive city building. Though it lacks some options in the logistics department and the UI is hard to look at, fans of the genre should find a title worth investing in with this deep colony builder.
