Far Garden early access: Anteverse Wheat and the first portal shortcut

Field Complaint

Everyone says visit the Far Garden first but I cannot find the entrance. Where exactly is it?

Validated Response

The Far Garden is the first Portal World most players visit, and the entrance is sitting right there on Level 3 of the Office Sector — the portal is already opened, no puzzle required. Here is the speedrun: take the maintenance lift to Silo 2 and you can be standing in the Far Garden within about 10 minutes of starting a new game if you explore in the right direction. The dimension is designated Anteverse 2-A, a garden-like alien world with its own ecosystem. The main reason to visit is Anteverse Wheat — it grows throughout the Far Garden and is the primary ingredient for Super Tomato Seeds and several other recipes you will need later. There is a catch on your first visit though: you get hit with a debuff that prevents items like the Jetpack from working until you complete the Portal World for the first time. It clears after you finish, so just push through it. Exor Monks patrol the area as enemies, and the Far Garden Pond has fishable water if you brought your rod. Approaching the portal for the first time triggers the tutorial about traveling to other worlds and kicks off portal storms, so consider that your point of no return. The Far Garden connects to the Silo 2 area, making it a convenient early loop for Anteverse Wheat farming. Get in, grab the wheat, complete the first run to clear the debuff, and then come back whenever you need more seeds.

Summary

The Far Garden is your first Portal World and your source of Anteverse Wheat. You can reach it in under 10 minutes.

Prerequisites

• Start a new game in the Office Sector
• Find the maintenance lift leading to Silo 2
• Or reach Level 3 Office Sector where the portal is already open

Recommended Loadout

• Basic survival supplies for a short trip
• Empty inventory for Anteverse Wheat harvesting
• A weapon for Exor Monk encounters

Step-by-Step Route

1. Locate the Far Garden portal on Level 3 of the Office Sector — it is already open, no Keypad Hacker needed
2. For a faster approach, find the maintenance lift to Silo 2 within about 10 minutes of starting
3. Enter the garden dimension, designated Anteverse 2-A
4. Harvest Anteverse Wheat — this is the primary reason to visit, as it is essential for cooking and seed crafting
5. Watch for Exor Monks, the enemy type that patrols this area
6. Fish the Far Garden Pond for additional food resources
7. Approaching the portal for the first time triggers the portal storm tutorial — this is intended and not a bug

Common Mistakes

• Overcomplicating the approach — the portal is already open on Level 3, just walk in
• Ignoring Anteverse Wheat and leaving with random loot instead of the crop you actually need
• Panicking when the portal storm tutorial triggers and abandoning the run
