About Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition
Spiritfarer®: Farewell Edition is a cozy management adventure where you, as Stella, ferry spirits across a hand‑drawn world. Build and upgrade a boat, farm, mine, fish, cook, and craft while forming bonds with memorable characters before releasing them into the afterlife. The edition bundles the original game with all major updates, adds optional local co‑op with Daffodil the cat, and supports a range of remote‑play options, offering 30‑hour core story and over 50 hours of content.
01 / THE GUIDE
Boat Building & Upgrades
Players construct a personal ferry that serves as the central hub for activities. The boat can be expanded and customized, allowing new rooms and functional spaces to be added as you progress. Upgrades are crafted from resources gathered during exploration, enhancing both aesthetics and utility.
Customization extends to visual elements, letting you personalize the vessel’s appearance. These changes do not affect core gameplay but provide a sense of ownership over your floating sanctuary.
- Prioritize gathering diverse resources early to unlock a wider range of upgrade options.
- Use visual customization to differentiate your ferry from others when playing with friends.

Caring for Spirits
The core loop involves inviting spirits aboard, fulfilling their needs, and learning their stories. Activities such as cooking, crafting gifts, and providing comfortable spaces deepen relationships, culminating in a farewell ceremony that releases each spirit.
Each spirit presents unique preferences, encouraging players to experiment with different activities and items to build stronger bonds before the final goodbye.
- Observe each spirit’s dialogue for hints about preferred gifts or activities.
- Balance time between resource gathering and personal interactions to keep spirits satisfied.

Resource Gathering & Crafting
Exploration yields materials for farming, mining, fishing, and harvesting. These resources feed into cooking, weaving, and crafting systems that support both boat upgrades and spirit gifts. The game offers an “endless variety of activities” to sustain this loop.
Crafted items serve functional purposes—such as tools for new areas—or sentimental ones, like personalized gifts for passengers.
- Visit each biome multiple times to discover hidden resource nodes.
- Combine harvested items in the kitchen to create higher‑value meals for spirits.
04 / THE GUIDE
Local Co‑op with Daffodil
An optional two‑player mode lets a second participant control Daffodil the cat. This shared‑screen experience does not alter the main storyline but adds a companion who can assist with tasks and explore alongside Stella.
The game supports Remote Play Together, enabling friends to join the co‑op session over the internet without needing a second console.
- Coordinate tasks with your co‑op partner to speed up resource collection.
- Use the cat’s presence to explore areas that might be harder for Stella alone.
