![]() And again great voice acting and great music. They were still great games with great stories. ![]() The Longest Journey had some little problems with pacing, Dreamfall had some little problems regarding gameplay. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t an amazing game. It was my first big audio project.Ībout Dreamfall itself it was different than what I had imagined. One thing I’m most proud of is the radio play I created for a contest I organized. The site, named Black House, was also a means to express my creativity. It became quite a success and we had a nice little community going on the fan-forums. So much, in fact, that I started a Dreamfall fan-site in anticipation of the game. When I heard a sequel to The Longest Journey was in the make, I was giddy with excitement. ![]() Here’s the trailer I saw back in 2000: Dreamfall It’s a real classical adventure game, so April will also be solving a large number of puzzles and meeting a lot of interesting characters along the way. She embarks on a journey full of discovery, exploration and personal growth. In The Longest Journey you take on the role of April Ryan, a young art student who finds out she has the power between her futuristic world of logic (Stark) and a parallel world of magic (Arcadia). And even though the voice acting was very good in both versions, that English version stuck with me the most. I later bought a second copy, this time in English. The visual art direction was splendid, the story was engaging and original (even though the conversations were a little long-winded at times), the voice acting was top notch (as mentioned), and the music was enchanting. ![]() But I would never have thought I would get so immersed into the world. I bought it as soon as I had time to go to the store. The trailer pulled me in, and the voice acting (both Dutch and English) was top notch. On the official website, there was a trailer and there were samples of the voice acting. I didn’t have a lot of money though (I was 15), so I decided to do some research before I bought it. When I saw the game at the store, I thought the box looked pretty and the story on the back of the box sounded adventurous. The first copy I bought (in the year 2000, I think) was in Dutch. It was written and created by Funcom‘s Ragnar Tørnquist, released in 1999, and a little later localized in several countries including The Netherlands. I always look at The Longest Journey as the game that inspired me to do more with my creativity. Before you listen though, consider reading some of the history below.
