Distant Lands is an almost surreal experience. If you don't experience all of the story bits, it is possible to miss out on some things that explain what's going on. I still feel a bit confused as to what I experienced over nearly 5 hours, but I can say for sure those 5 hours were well spent.
It's hard to write a review for the game though, because with every word that escapes my fingers my mind is fighting to retain the secrets that await you. Gameplay is akin to an idler, a clicker, and a walking sim. You explore a location that begins with questions, gives you more questions, and finally answers. It is a game that consistently pushes you towards finding answers to what's going on, yet entices you with its pleasant music, charming gameplay, and a feeling that you don't quite want to leave it.
You'll explore, you'll solve some very slight puzzles. You'll learn to look at things from different perspectives. You'll ask yourself questions, and click on stars. You'll click on orbs, gaining experience, which makes clicking stars much more satisfying and gainful. Watch the world come to life with your actions.
A great soundtrack awaits, and the game itself is just a wholesome and charming experience. I quite like this, and highly recommend it.
