A classic, but has visibly aged

The Longest Journey has been one of the seminal influences on me, especially in terms of how I view the world, existence, perception and other philosophical concepts. I played it first when I was in my late teens and it was an eye-opening experience back then. I couldn't believe that someone could write such a story and make it playable; it made me think deep on what I think and believe, and I loved the presentation of the game, the art style and music. However, looking back on it now, I see the gray hair, the wrinkles and the stiff joints. The puzzles are mostly free of moon logic, but they are also a bit simplistic and bare-bone. The writing and the characters are a mixed bag; some are great, like Westhouse, Crow and April, but most of the others are more sketches than characters. Some dialogs are amazing, but some are purely functional. On top of that, the latter part of the game, roughly from the point after the Alchemist's tower, feel a bit rushed compared to the leisurely pace of the early game. That being said, the core concept of the story still holds up very, very well, and has lost nothing over the years. Dualistic beliefs are very old, and people feel them deep down in one form or another, regardless of personal beliefs. The art and music has also held up excellently, and the game can still be a pleasure to play for that reason alone. Voice acting is also excellent, and has no trace of underacting. Having played the rest of the series (Dreamfall and Chapters) I am even more inclined to view this game as its own standalone thing, which has been expanded on a bit artificially. I mean, there's nothing wrong with that, plenty of franchises have done it well, including this one (the design problems of Dreamfall notwithstanding). That being said, I can recommend this game to anyone with a tooth for 90s adventure games.

Amazing!

An attaching protagonist full of zest, memorable interactions and locales, fun and varied puzzles (albeit sometimes quirky), great soundtrack, a grand adventures through time and space that's full of curiosities. No other adventure game equals it, the stars aligned for this one. Play it, then replay it every now and then just so that the journey never ends.

One of the Best Adventure Games to Date

I do not usually play adventure games nor do I usually write game reviews... but this game is definitely worth the effort. First of all, I did not play this game when it was initially released, so this is not a nostalgia review. Long story short: buy this game and you will like it. If you hesitate for some reason, just wait until it is on sale and get it for almost free. Just do not let the graphics fool you. This game is not about bland, “realistic” 3D models like most modern games are, it is about the journey. And the journey is indeed long and interesting. The story line is an outstanding, unique mix of Sci-Fi, Cyberpunk and Fantasy genres. Every NPC in this game is unique and memorable, every dialogue has a sound and the voice actors did a great job. And the humor is great and used when it is relevant. Every puzzle is doable and logical. They vary in difficulty of course but even difficult ones are doable. The one about “the eye” (if you know, you know) took me a long time, but still it was doable and logical too. It is one of those good old games that will take you about 20 hours to complete (not quite long according to the “modern” standards) but the content of this game is so unique and there are so many different events in it that you will feel way more attached to this game and its characters than you do in most bland, modern games that take you 200 hours to complete. The only problem that I had with this port, was a couple of random crashes after cut-scenes. But reloading the game and skipping a scene, resolved this issue. Everything else worked flawlessly.
