Voyage to Farland is a tough as nails turn-based graphical dungeon crawler inspired by the cult classic Japanese Mystery Dungeon games.
A homeless wanderer enters the forested valley called Iya Gorge – a strange land filled with mystery, danger and frightful creatures possessing fell powers. In search of a lost sister, the wanderer takes on challenges in forests, dungeons, and caverns to defeat an evil witch who has kidnapped the local children.
But completing that quest is just the start, for beyond it lies the more daunting task, embarking on The Path of No Return, a brutal trail through catacombs and treacherous lands to reach the mythical place known to locals simply as "Farland".
There, a fascinating surprise awaits our undaunted adventurer…
Highlights include procedural generation, emergent puzzles and a unique "kimokawa" (cute but creepy) art style to offer indie fans a game inspired by the hardcore 16-bit golden age of gaming.
Features:
- replayability that will keep you busy for months to come
- tons of monster types with devious abilities
- starter dungeon and 4 unlockable themed dungeons
- 4 NPCs you can recruit to help you fight
- rescue codes to save and be saved by other players
Fun things you can do in Voyage to Farland:

- take on the challenge of the Strategy Dungeon
- build weapon & shield enchantments and store gear in a warehouse

Voyage to Farland is a "Mystery Dungeon" style graphical roguelike game where you move in a turn-based manner through randomly generated dungeons, find lots of items, numerous scrolls and weapons to help you defeat strange monsters. Can be extremely difficult due to its randomness but its an addictive and fun to play roguelike. Closest thing you can get to Mystery Dungeon Shiren as an android game.
Compared to rpg games out for the android, Farland is different in a good way. Its addictive and fun but a bit underrated, probably because it doesn't have much advertising or maybe due to the fact its aimed for the hardcore players (be it the killer difficulty that can turn off casual players or the somewhat dull presentation of menus and story that may repel today's young gamers who are used to being spoon fed with tutorials and colourful stuff.)
Unlike angry birds, the shitty fruit cutting games or any other mobile game that involves the words "zombies" in its name, Farland is not a game for the casual player to pick up and play. (Mind you neither was shiren, the game that has inspired Farland) I'm not saying it should be aimed for casual players, but i think casual players dominate the mobile market and maybe that's why Farland remains somewhat underrated.
To summarize Farland is good. Gameplay is simple and catchy, keeps you hooked with random dungeon exploration, numerous pickups, obscure monsters and simple combat mechanics, but dated looking j-rpg menus, basic visuals and harsh presentation is where Farland lacks.
