What is Near and Far about?
Four wanderers search for the Last Ruin, a city that legends say contains an artifact that will grant the greatest desires of the heart. A lost love, redemption, acceptance, a family rejoined– these are the fires that fuel the wanderers’ journeys, but can they overcome their own greed and inner demons on the way?
In Near and Far, you and up to three friends explore many different maps in a search for the Last Ruin, recruiting adventurers, hunting for treasure, and competing to be the most storied traveler. Players must collect food and equipment at town to suffice the long journeys to mysterious locales. Be sure not to forget enough weapons to fight off bandits, living statues and rusty robots! The book of stories gives players a choice of how to react, creating a new and memorable tale each time you play.
