Digitally DownloadedMatt SainsburyNov 20175/5 starsI love it because it's genuine bona fide art, made with that explicit intent and, importantly, successful at it. It's a game that weaves a masterful story, and would only really work as interactive art, because ultimately, what this game is about is a conversation... and it wants to hear your answers as much as it wants to pose questions to you.

PlayStation LifeStyleTyler TreeseNov 20179/10Far From Noise is an important showcase that games should work within their limitations. A single developer like George Batchelor can never make something that'll rival Uncharted in scope or scale, but here he's managed to work within boundaries to make something all the more profound. Smart writing and design can go a long way, and Far From Noise manages to go many places while never leaving the edge of a cliff.

PS4Blog.netNov 20179/10Far From Noise is a unique experience that I'm delighted to have had a chance to play, and I loved each minute of it. Its creator, George Batchelor, did an amazing job on this release that every player looking for a different, introspective experience should definitely play! Come for the game presentation, and stay for the amazing narrative!

PC AficionadoDec 20174.1/10Far from Noise is an exceedingly short, narrative experience told through simple dialogue choices. The visuals are pleasant but limited, the music is quite nice but there’s little else to sustain you for even the short hour it takes to play. The writing is just not good enough to make the whole thing feel worthwhile let alone ask for $9.

GamesBeatStephanie ChanNov 201780/100Whether or not you'll like Far From Noise depends on if you're looking for a contemplative experience, one that asks you to slow down and enjoy the view. One playthrough will probably run you one to two hours, and it has replay value if you want to see where it can go.
