As Far As The Eye is a turn-based strategy game. The aim of the game is to bring the tribe to the center of the map before the floods come. In order to reach the indicated place it is necessary to collect resources needed for survival.
As Far As The Eye is a turn-based strategy in which the player must guide the fate of the tribe. Unexpected Studio is responsible for the development of the game, and Goblinz Studio was responsible for its release.
In As Far As The Eye, the player takes on the role of the wind that takes care of the tribe. His aim is to bring his wards to the center of the world before the floods that will cover most of the area.
As Far As The Eye is played out on a procedurally generated map, divided into hexagons. Before starting the game, the player can adjust the session parameters, such as its length or the number of available resources.
After hitting the map, the player has to determine the optimal path to the center of the world. However, it does not necessarily have to be the easiest way. During the journey the natives have to satisfy their needs and collect the resources necessary for their survival. For example, in order to satisfy the need for hunger, a fishing haven must be built. In addition, while exploring the world, you may meet NPCs with whom you can trade. They can also be added to the directed tribe.
The tribe may also encounter obstacles that will make their journey difficult. These may include difficult weather conditions, such as storms. Besides, there are places of cult on the map where you can make a sacrifice. If a player decides to loot them instead, he will also suffer the consequences.
In the game there is also an extensive tribe development system implemented. It was divided into three categories - work, knowledge and buildings. Each of them contains a set of improvements that affect the functioning of the settlers.
As Far As The Eye offers a colorful, cartoon-style graphic design. It was shown in isometric view.

Game Ratings for As Far as the Eye Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 2 / 10 by Lowell Bell
In its launch state on Switch, much of As Far As The Eye is unplayable. For us, neither Quick Game or Custom Matches would last long before we got booted to the Switch's dashboard. We waited several days for some kind of update to fix both the UI and the egregious crashes and get a better idea of a game that is not without promise, but a patch still hasn't arrived at the time of writing. If or when one does come, As Far As The Eye has the potential to become an intriguing little strategy game with that Civilization-style 'just one more turn' effect. But for now, do not get sucked in by its soothing mood and the cute little Pupils.

I never played a nomadic strategy game. More than that, I never even heard of anything like this. As Far As The Eye really is a one-of-a-kind game requiring the player to carefully plan their path, remembering about creating food chains and not staying too long in the same spot unless they want to be flooded and killed in the process. It takes some time to grasp the mechanics, but after that it offers a lot of satisfaction.
Checkpoint Gaming: 5 / 10 by David McNamara
For a strategy game that wants you to play for long sessions, inching your way “halt by halt” to safety for your tribe, As Far As The Eye lacks the quality of life features that would make the experience rewarding. Fans of turn-based strategy games might find enough enjoyment here to look past its most obvious flaws – there’s certainly a mechanically dense, lore-heavy strategic experience here for those willing to work for it – but if, like me, you like your games served without a healthy dose of frustration, you may want to look elsewhere.
