Simply put, one of the finest and well told adventure games in quite some time. A must have for all gamers.

Utterly brilliant

"superbly written and well thought out"
The Longest Journey is deeply immersive gaming experience that keeps interest right till the end. It plays like a standard point and click adventure game with the character in third-person perspective. The puzzles are ... Read Full Review

TLJ makes me remember why I enjoyed Adventure games so much. This story will wrap around you.
Where to begin? I picked up The Longest Journey on a whim, 2 years after it came out. It alas, was also in a Bargain Bin. I took it home, figured out I did have decent enough specs to run and it and installed 4 CD's... Read Full Review
