Far Away is a two-player co-operative board game about discovery, survival, and the crushing loneliness of being the only two humans for lightyears.

Join the Federation Alliance, a bureaucracy with an ambitious charter of mapping new worlds and a minimalist budget. Succeed in a variety of missions on randomly generated worlds with unique ecosystems, without luxuries like radios, landing gear, and medical supplies. Trust in your partner is paramount since, without radios, you can’t communicate (in real life) after separating on the game board.

Survive, and you’ll be rewarded with a meager paycheck. Succumb to the planet, and you’ll find help is too far away.

The Far Away Program

The Federation Alliance started the Far Away program nearly 50 cycles ago to discover and explore new worlds. The missions we undertake are of vital importance to galactic prosperity. However, budget setbacks have forced us to reduce operational expenses. That’s where you, the willing explorer, can help!

Explorer Duties

The Federation has several active missions for you to choose. Each offers unique challenges and potential sub-objectives we would love for you to accomplish off-the-clock. Thanks to the randomly generated universe, every mission attempt will be different.

Once you’ve selected a mission and crashed into the planet (landing gear has been deemed “optional”), you must begin surviving. Your goal is to complete the mission and rebuild your ship. You will fail if you die of hunger, loneliness, or multiple grievous injuries. Don’t fail!

Be forewarned: communication will be a challenge. Radios will not be provided, so the only way to communicate with your partner is to be in close physical proximity. Plan ahead! This not only allows you to strategize, but also prevents the psychological meltdown that comes with being alone on an alien world.

Alien Creatures

Each planet has a unique ecosystem. Experts have identified upwards of 32 creatures in the known universe, each with their own behavioral patterns.

Explorers will be tasked to Realistically and Objectively Log Events Performed Logically by Animals and Yourself (ROLEPLAY). Creature behavior is dictated by their diet, temperament, and other factors. Explorers are provided a quick guide to educate them on default creature movement, but we encourage explorers to embrace their inner-alien and log the creature actions with creativity and vibrant storytelling.

The Far Away Recruitment Kit

Your exploration kit can be delivered straight to your home. Inside the 5.75# box, you’ll find over 800 pieces. We have included an instruction manual so you can assemble your spaceship with minimal government intervention. Please register your DNA online so we can credit your account upon mission completion.

We have a 15 day refund policy on sealed or unused new products. The return must be accompanied by a receipt from our store. If a receipt cannot be provided store credit will be provided at the lowest sale price within the past 6 months.

Trading card game items such as booster packs or sealed boxes are not returnable unless they have not left our physical building. 

Any and all tcg boxes are not guaranteed to be in perfect condition. All items we carry will have intact (but perhaps not perfect) shrink wrap, if originally produced with shrink wrap. If you are purchasing an item for a sealed collection or expect perfection, please do not shop with us. We will not accept your return and we don't want to deal with sending dozens of pictures so that you can inspect our products via email.

If an item is shipped and arrives damaged, an insurance claim will be filed and reimbursement will be passed on once the claim has been fulfilled 


Any products that are bought used can only be returned if they are found to be defective or not as described when purchased. These items may be returned, but only before leaving the store. It is recommended that buyers inspect any used games thoroughly before purchasing to find anything that was potentially missed during the store's initial inspection upon acquiring the game.
