Stellar Game
Great adventure game full of humour and colourful characters. Even though I only first played this last year it ranks up there in my list of top adventure games. Wish there were more like this one on the market.

Deep profound and should be a standalone
This is rated among one of the top adventure games ever made. Interesting, funny, relateable protagonist, incredible adventure, deep story with a engaging plot. Unforgettable gaming experience... Thought provoking dialogues. Incredible 3D animation for its time. An old 2000s adventure game that somehow manages a cinematic feel. Then game the sequels where very little was scared. They feel more like spin offs, they assinate April Ryan's character, take away huge proportions of her soul and with that the series is left completely changed with new protagnoists that take it in an entirely new direction...it's no longer April Ryan's story... she becomes less and less relevant... She becomes a secondary character that becomes incredibly depressed, broken.... It's increidbly easy to fall in love with this adventure game and it's protagonist but you should stop with this game and see it as a stand alone, use your own imagination how April Ryan moves on with her life. The ending however less than entirely cheerful didn't have to open itself to the complete self destruction of the protagonist... it left itself perfectly open for a "come back" or " challenging fate" sort of sequel... Instead we got a bizzare, spin off like sequel that made the protagonist "fated to doom and gloom" and a random new protagonist is shuved down our throats... This game has it all, a wonderful story, humor, a great protagonist, everything... and you should only seek to play this one if you fall in love with all of it as I did because the sequels seek to destroy and unravel basically all of it... The sequels didn't have to go in that direction but they do... TLJ is one of the greatest adventure games ever and April Ryan is one of the best protagonists...save yourself the heart ache and skil the spin off sequels...

A Must Play
A quintessential adventure game that everyone who is a fan of the genre should play - it's pretty much required playing in my opinion. The game's characters and depth really get you sucked in though some of the puzzles are pull-you-hair-out nonsense that will most likely require you to refer to a walkthrough. The art design, music and voice acting are all top notch and when you finish, you'll definitely want more...which you can find in the game's sequel: Dreamfall. Highly recommended.

One of the best adventure games there is
This is one of the best point and click adventure games made. Some of the puzzles are a bit tough, especially the underwater rotating disc puzzle but outside of the it is one of the most satisfying experiences to date. The game combines CGI backgrounds and beautiful graphics to create a really atmospheric world. You can't help but be drawn into it. This game is also 100% voice acted and voice acted very well so you will not have to read through hundreds of dialogue bubbles. (Not that there is anything wrong with reading lots of text). The game takes place in an unspecified future earth with high technology and flying cars. The game gets the ball rolling when suddenly she enters through a portal into a mystical land filled with magical creatures and medieval architecture. You will enjoy unraveling the mystery as you go between the technological world and the magical world. I can't recommend this game enough for adventure game fans.

The pinacle of adventure games
There simply is no game that gets closer to perfect than this. All they could have done was give us more of the same (and for that see Dreamfall and Dreamfall Chapters). The characters are realistic, deep and engaging offering consistency and surprise in the measure we would expect from a great novel rather than a computer game. The setting is immersive and comprehensive, with the feeling that there is more around every corner and that the developers have given thought to areas of the world considerably beyond the borders of the story. The plot is epic and appropriately so to the genre, characters and story. Often with such epic plots, character gets lost or trivialised but not so here. In TLJ - the plot is epic as much because of the characters rather than despite them and they soar with it without losing any of their believability or subtle vulnerability. The puzzles are, almost exclusively, logical and well thought out. And thus we avoid the all-too-often problem with the genre's addiction to challenging you through gaps of logic in the chain of a puzzle's solution. The voice acting is second to none, full of depth and emotion but devoid of melodrama. And the animation, for a game of its time, is fantastic. The vistas of the worlds you explore draw you in with curiosity and fascination, making you want to explore every nook and corner. I just wish all games were like this...
