Feels like the journey of your life
It has the feeling of an old point-and-click adventure, but topped with great graphics. Every scene, every character and every step of the journey has its own personality. After traveling across all those places, you come to the end realising the marvelous places you have visited, the good friends you have made and the things you have learned from this universe.

Charm, Wit, Story, and AWFUL Puzzles!
After playing Myst, I caught "the puzzle fever" and played through Riven, Myst 3 and 4, and Obduction. I'm also trying RHEM, but I wanted to try a more story-rich puzzle game. The Longest Journey is critically acclaimed, so... Why not try it? The Good: - I like the main character, April Ryan. She's cheeky, funny, and believable. - The story is off to a strong start. I'd heard it was supposed to be complicated, but it seems quite straightforward and conventional at the moment. - The world designs are great and interesting. The Bad: Many of TLJ's puzzles don't make any sense until after they're revealed, assuming the solution makes sense at all. The Rubber Duck puzzle is, apparently, one of the most notorious amongst all games of this genre, frequently making "Top 10" lists of bad puzzles. Yes, it's that bad. How often players must look up a guide to finish a game tells you everything you need to know about it. I'm not the smartest person in the world, but I'm positive I'm not a dunce. I can proudly claim I can count on one hand the number of times I needed a small hint for Myst, Riven, Myst 3, and Obduction. I can't say the same for TLJ. I'm partway through chapter 3, and I'm quickly running out of patience due to how many times I've had to look up a full walkthrough. Extra: There is also a game-crashing glitch with the police station. GOG's known about it for years and it still hasn't been fixed! Unacceptable! There is a workaround, but you won't be able to figure out what it is for yourself, which is par for this course. Verdict: Don't play TLJ for its puzzles, so, you might as well not play it at all. I will finish TLJ because I paid for it (on sale) and I'm invested in the story. I doubt I will play it a second time or ever recommend it to anyone. You should probaly watch a "Lets Play" video instead. Reading guides to solve a game would be the same as watching someone else play it. So yeah, spend your money on food or gas instead.

Incredible and frustrating
Every so often, you'll read a book, watch a movie, listen to a song, or play a game that sticks with you long after the initial experience is over. This is my experience with The Longest Journey. I first heard about TLJ from an old IGN article listing the best PC games of all time. While I wasn't really interested in adventure games at the time, the screenshots intrigued me. Years later, I rediscovered the game here on GOG and picked it up. This game is beautiful. Not necessarily in a technical way, but artistically. The pre-rendered cutscenes and backgrounds evoke living, breathing worlds. You can imagine just how much more there is just off of the edge of your screen. Couple that with a brilliant soundtrack, and you've got a game that is rich in atmosphere I played this game when I was working on a failed second college degree in my early twenties. I really related to April Ryan's struggles as a young adult trying to find my place in the world. It certainly didn't hurt that she's a charming, well-acted character. Playing this at that time in my life really made it stick with me. There are definite downsides to TLJ. Primarily, the puzzles. Good gravy are they convoluted. I would highly recommend not playing this game blind, but instead using a walkthrough. I personally used the Universal Hint System guide, which drip feeds you only basic information at first, with the option to spell it out for you as well. Try it yourself first, but once you get stuck, don't give up. It's worth it to finish. Another aspect that has aged pretty poorly is the voice acting and writing. April herself is acted well enough, but there are far too many characters whose stilted performances and cheesey nineties writing make it a little hard to stomach. From a technical aspect, this game needs a remaster. It doesn't work particularly well on modern systems. Take a look at the PC Gaming Wiki before you play. I adore this game and hope that April will finish the journey home one day.

Classic of a genre
Played it several times, always quite apart to re-discover the amazing journey and mixture of Science-Fiction and Fantasy. You can pretty easily call this game Cyberpunk and fantastical journey, this game is so unique and fascinating. Your fun might be spoiled, however, by 2 major things that were quite unfortunate, when I was reminded about: Performence and black-cut-scenes (no movies at all on windows 10 and so I have heard 11 too), I was ableto fix it by using SCUMM-VM, this software has saved so many old games at the same time slightly enhancing the graphics. The second is a few bugs that are game-breaking - I have stumbled across situation where assembling in wrong order certain 'Metro-fishing' device can cause that you can't progress, so save before combining clampers with anything. So why still 5 stars? The journey is so long, interesting, perhaps more like actually role playing so you visit bar each day to see different people and see different events each day, there is some sort of natural progress and discovery while puzzles are reasonable enough if you follow what everyone is saying (although dialog-log is not great).

The best adventure game I knew.
It's 2016. I just finished playing "The Longest Journey" for the first time. And this game is amazing. I played adventurers from time to time, over my gaming life, never was and avid fan of them still. But this game... it's like reading a good book, really. The characters ARE alive, sure, sometimes they're sketchy, but most of the time — quite interesting. Authors aren't afraid to give them lengthy dialogues, unlike short phrases, that seem to be the standart for today's adventurers. Sure, the graphics in movies are not aged well, and there is no widescreen support, but that aside from that game is still looking quite nice, and have some cool music and very well spoken dialogues. The length of the game was quite a nice surprise too, it took me 20+ hours to finish. Puzzles are okay-ish, there was a few hard cases, but overall they are logical, and nice. Still, the story is definitely strongest suit. It was a pleasure playing this jewel. I will remember it.
