INDIE GAME / PLAY GUIDE
FAR: Changing Tides: All 35 Achievements | Six Buoys, Seven Container Locations, and Growing the Flower
Released: Steam main game · Updated 2026-10-13
Divides 35 achievements into facility progress, onboard actions, cumulative totals, and single-journey conditions. Find six buoy and seven container locations by route landmarks, then check the six-container collection requirement.
From carrying the flower to growing it
Bring the first building's pot aboard and carry it to the new stern after the damage. When the stern gains a planting place, install the pot, open the skylight above, and water it.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Cultivating | Plant aboard | Do not leave it on the damaged old ship |
| I'm Rooting For You! | Water the planted flower | Separate from planting |
| Beauty in Disaster | Grow the flower fully | Maintain light and watering along the way |
| Going Green | Burn the flower | Separate choice from growing. Finish growing first |
Do not invent a fixed count
Flower growth is not treated as a definite "water it 15 times to unlock" condition. Sources include personal records of continued watering and confirm opening the skylight, but do not analyze count/time checks across every platform.
19 facility-progression achievements
Facility solutions are in the route articles. The table matches English names with unlocking actions. Do more than reach the facility: finish the final step, such as component installation, departure, or sounding the horn.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Cast Off | Release the ship from the early factory | After drainage, board from the floating box |
| So it Begins | Set the sails and leave home | Sail to the city's exit |
| Fixed it! | Fix the sawmill's broken lever with the tool | Collect the tool via the log platform |
| Fireman | Fuel and ignite the railway furnace | Upper button and bellows |
| Heart Core | Install the engine core aboard | Return the train left to transport it |
| Discover the Ancients | View the ancient mural at the great-gate facility | Climb the facility after the gorge |
| All Patched Up | Attach the new stern | Align the two central lights |
| 20,000 Leagues | Install the diving core aboard | Cliff water tank and crane |
| Turn on the Lights | Move the great underwater door | Button beneath the capsule |
| Ancient Energy | Install the boost core | Furnace after the windy chains |
| Seafarer | Pass through the sea gate | Sail onward after core installation |
| Are You Qualified For That? | Use the crane to remove the long pipe blocking the route | Metal facility's upper lever and winch |
| Risen From the Depths | Raise the underwater city | Install the reactor replacement and boost the ship |
| What Now? | Depart the surfaced city | Topmost button and sail |
| Northwest Passage | Surface between the ice | Route after the seismograph facility |
| Reunited | Free your ship from the ice | Melt ice with another vehicle |
| Aeronaut | Ride the balloon above the waterfall | Put the ship in the frame and maintain steam |
| A Familiar Sound? | Sound the lighthouse horn | Two boxes → upper button → summit lever |
| Arrival | Meet Lone | Sail left after the horn |
Five achievements to check aboard
Keep the flower from the beginning and place it in the new stern's planting bed. Burning it first loses the growing flower, so choose either growing before burning or trying the routes separately from a checkpoint.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Fire Warden | Cool the engine with the hose | Separate from extinguishing the furnace with water |
| King of the World! | Stand at the bow's edge at top speed, with the sail catching sufficient wind and the engine running | Boost not required. Prepare on a safe straight stretch |
| Cultivating | Place the pot in the new stern's planting bed | Store it before attaching the stern |
| I'm Rooting For You! | Water the planted flower with the hose | Placing the pot alone is insufficient |
| Beauty in Disaster | Open the skylight and water whenever you return from a facility to grow the flower to its final stage | Ensure sunlight rather than staying submerged unnecessarily. No guaranteed fixed count |
Six cumulative or burning achievements
Check repairs, burning, and sailing in Stats. Post-reload accumulation is based on PC source records, distinguished from a guarantee of save behavior on every platform.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Running a Tight Ship | Repair major systems ten times with the tool | Use equipment damaged by collisions or overheating. Completely undamaged equipment does not increase the count |
| Fuel-guzzler | Feed a total of 100 items into the furnace | Not the number of fuel pickups. Another item can be added after feeding one in |
| Running on Fumes | Put even the last remaining onboard item into the furnace | Check stored objects such as repair boxes, too. Try after finishing flower growth |
| Going Green | Put the flower in the furnace and burn it | Check separately from the three growth achievements |
| Full Steam Ahead | Travel 1,000 m with boost active | Cool while keeping the gauge blue, then activate when the button appears |
| Submariner | Travel 10,000 m underwater aboard the ship | Not swimming distance. PC sources suggest the long waterways after checkpoint 30 for topping up |
Six Buoy Locations | Push Them with the Ship at the Surface
Diving beneath their chains alone does not push the targets for Oh Buoy. Lower the sails to avoid damage, push them aside with the hull, then dive to salvage cargo. Numbers give this table's checking order, not in-game chapter numbers.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| B1 | Before the new stern | Push the first surface buoy with the ship | Before diving capability. Separate from cargo collection |
| B2 | Immediately after attaching the new stern | Leave the facility right and push the surface buoy | Collect C2 beneath it, too |
| B3 | Wreck after the sea gate | At the edge of the enormous hull wreck beyond the jellyfish and ice route | C4 beneath requires operating a turbine |
| B4 | After the severe storm | Buoy at the entrance to the wreck section immediately after the storm | Collect C5 beneath it |
| B5 | After raising and departing the underwater city | Reached by sailing right at the surface after What Now? | Collect C6 beneath it |
| B6 | After reuniting with the ship beyond the ice | Surface route toward the waterfall after Reunited | C7 beneath. No additional buoy beyond the waterfall |
Seven Container Locations | Collect Six Contents in the Same Journey
Salvage Hunter requires six of the seven containers. Attach the stern hook to cargo, winch it up, and collect the contents. Record pushing buoys separately from recovering containers.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| C1 | Directly beneath the new stern | While stopped where the stern was attached, lower the hook | Lifting it opens access to the button in the hole below |
| C2 | Beneath B2's chain | Open the wreck's right hatch and pass the hook through the hole to the cargo | Merely finding the cargo is insufficient |
| C3 | Before the great underwater door | Remove left metal with hook → open the new passage in person → reconnect the hook | Button beneath the cargo opens the circular door |
| C4 | Beneath B3's chain | Pull the right box onto the turbine to lower its right side | Carry the hook through the gap beneath the raised left side |
| C5 | Beneath B4's chain | Connect directly to the seabed cargo and winch it up | Explore after the storm once back at the surface |
| C6 | Beneath B5's chain | Beyond the raised city, follow the chain to the seabed | Do not confuse with facility cargo inside the city |
| C7 | Beneath B6's chain | After the ice reunion, reach the chain's bottom before the waterfall | Last location to compensate for one missed container |
Four Single-Journey Conditions and One All-Achievements Unlock
Cumulative requirements and conditions tied to particular sections are treated separately. Start the speed challenge on a new journey; do not reinterpret same-journey collection as a total across different saves.
| Landmark | Actions / order | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Oh Buoy | Push B1–B6 above aside with the ship | Do not skip them via underwater shortcuts |
| Salvage Hunter | Collect six from C1–C7 above in the same journey | Winch up until the contents emerge |
| Steady as you Go | Reach the balloon through the underwater cave before the waterfall without touching walls, ceiling, or floor | PC sources give checkpoint 51 as the restart landmark. Adjust water quantity slowly |
| At a Rate of Knots | Finish a new journey in under 210 minutes | Exactly 210 minutes does not qualify. Learn detour locations and system order beforehand |
| Changed Tides | Obtain the other 34 achievements above | Also on Steam. Do not treat as PlayStation-exclusive |
