What players say
Players enjoy Fares as a short, charming 2D platformer with a cat-boy treasure hunter, solid controls, and a soundtrack that stands out. The difficulty ramps up nicely from easy to challenging, and the speedrun mode and achievements encourage replays. Some note polish issues with hitboxes and that the game does not recognize certain controllers on PC.
