Dreamfall

Finished replaying the adventures of Zoe and April.

Still like the game in a lot of ways. The interface and controls are very good and I wish more games used this 3D control scheme (like Broken Sword 4 as well).

Graphics are very good although the areas are very linear and very small with frequent loading.

The story is obviously the highlight of the game although it leaves waaay too much unanswered. Considering there is no indication that another Longest Journey game will come out soon (or ever) then it's frustrating to have so many loose threads. Cliffhangers only really work if there is a sequel due pretty soon.

Puzzle wise it is more or less puzzle free as there is nothing that remotely stretches the gray matter.

So overall no puzzles, but a nice, unfinished, story populated by decent characters and a decent control scheme.

8/10
