Red Raven Games
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 & 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. You must collect food and equipment at town for long journeys to mysterious locales, making sure not to forget enough weapons to fight off bandits, living statues, and rusty robots! Sometimes in your travels you'll run into something unique and one of your friends will read what happens to you from a book of stories, giving you a choice of how to react, creating a new and memorable tale each time you play.
Near & Far is a sequel to Above & Below and includes a book of encounters. This time players read over ten game sessions to reach the end of the story. Each chapter is played on a completely new map with unique art and adventures. Answer the call of the ruins and begin your journey.

A must for Laukat collectors
Beautiful and well-designed, this game remains one of our top ranking Laukat games among the many beautiful and fun games that have been released. There's a huge world of story waiting for you within each game, and Near and Far does not disappoint! Production values are top-notch and the tactile quality of the experience is just wonderful.

Beautiful Story
It's a beautiful book format game, there is no traditional board. It's quite simple to do your moves and the rewards can be good, but the good part about it is the narrative. Finding out what you do with your characters, where they're going, who they meet. The artwork is wonderful and if you like fantasy, this is a must buy for sure.

Keeps Getting Better
We love Ryan Laukat games and have most of them in our collection. We love Above and Below and were hoping this would be similar. To my surprise, I didn’t like this game at first. It takes several games to see the various strategies and routes to victory. But after coming back to this game and playing through a full campaign, it’s a fantastic experience that keeps showing you new things. There are a lot of different options for gameplay: character, campaign, arcade mode, etc. We also found the expansion (which adds a cooperative mode) makes this game even better! This has slowly become a top 10 game in our house! Check it out!
