Farsight is an under development science fiction "pen & paper" roleplaying game, based on the rules of the brand-new EDGE System, designed by Lightfish Games.
The game aims to be a generic and versatile platform, simple but also powerful, able to cover any kind of science-fiction setting - from modern techno-thrillers to cyberpunk, from post-apocalyptic to space opera, and so on.
The EDGE System, on which Farsight is based, is a slender and elegant game engine that emphasizes character interpretation and interaction between players, thanks to some innovative and fun ideas like the EDGE Cards, but without giving up the more tactical aspects of the classic science fiction role-playing games.
