About the game

Faraway tells the story of the mysterious continent of Alula, where the people live in harmony with nature and with the constantly changing landscapes. The only way to explore Alula is to set out on expeditions again and again. Along the way you collect the resources you need to complete quests. Completed quests earn you points, which can bring you victory.

How do you play Faraway

What makes Faraway unique is the scoring. Over 8 rounds, players play 8 region cards from left to right in their own play area. At the end of the game the scoring runs from right to left instead, which calls for a lot of thinking and planning during play. Scoring happens card by card, and as you go along more and more of the region cards played earlier, including bonuses and resources, are counted. This way cards become worth more and more points.

Each round consists of 3 phases, which all players go through at the same time. At the end of the game the points are counted. The player with the most points wins the game.
