About the Game

Fari Stjornu is a game about sailing, fighting and trading.  It is a simple role playing game with level up and experience, loot and coins.  I started this game as a hobby after playing all the major role playing games.  This game is mainly inspired after seeing role playing games in real time strategy editor player made maps.  Start washed ashore on an island and grab a weapon to start your role playing game.

The game uses three ability combat, that runs on almost any mouse with 2 buttons and a scroll wheel button.  The game uses a basic ~dozen buttons on the keyboard built with simplicity.  This game also functions with a gamepad.

The Controls are written in the game and can be found from the menu screen.  The game manual is in the main menu -> options -> how to play.

This game saves data when a player leaves the game world to the main menu.

The game begins with a short intro followed by you having to create a character in the character creator menu.  Start the game on the first island and obtain a ship to start your open world role playing game adventure.

New updates in the future of this game will include fishing, ai companion, new maps with new islands, new gear, new weapon arch-types, new boats and owning a house.

Get this game now for a greatly reduced price and enjoy the free updates for free before this game is in its final version that will cost 7x more.

Works with Steam Deck(selecting proton in the [game]->[properties]->[compatibility])(or have your steam deck updated).  The unity service cloud save function only works with Apple id or Unity Player ID (NOT google sign-in unless you have a secure browser(such as playing this game on Steam Deck's desktop mode).  Also, in the steam deck web browser if you choose Apple id you have to tap the box that doesn't appear that is actually hidden directly beneath the email text box after you enter the email.

The cloud save function of this game works as intended on windows desktops and can use all the options for signing in the Unity Cloud Save.

This game DOES NOT require a Unity cloud save account and can save data to a local machine terminal.

REPORT for new content - MAY 21 2025

This game has grown a large amount.  It now includes two new quadrants from the original game and instead of being 250MB file size it is now 750 MB file size.  It now has a map to help you find your way, || and a little RTS mini game mode that uses the same models as the RPG story mode of this game but with an RTS eagle eye mini game for fun. ||  It has a second optional starting spawn zone for those who want to change the intro but the second sandbox is part of the whole realm of the FARI STJORNU world and can be accessed from the original mode by sailing to it.  The game still has full controller support so you can play it from the couch without any problems.  The UI is weaved to work with the gamepad.

The game will come with android APK file found in the |game's installation folder| -> |bin folder| which is the same game but for android.  This game uses a cloud save with unity service which allows you to access your save game from multiple devices.
