Ragnar Tørnquist is very talented
The Longest Journey was my first real point-and-click adventure title. It will forever be my favorite as well. This game works great as a standalone entry despite the Dreamfall spin-off sequels, which had a different protagonist, Zoe. Personally, the original's April Ryan was the superior character of the two. Also, the Dreamfall games ditched the traditional point-and-click formula and pre-rendered backdrops, which was kind of a let down. TLJ still stands on its own, but I'd recommend checking out the other two as well. Ragnar Tørnquist is one of a kind and a remarkable writer with an ambitious story to tell. The settings and characters in the original are all top-notch. Truly a very immersive game for its time.
