Throwback Thursday: The Longest Journey

Here's your new Throwback Thursday! In this week's episode of our ongoing series on some of our favorite classics, we're inviting you to explore not just one, but two worlds.
In The Longest Journey, Funcom's perfection of a Point-and-Click adventure, you'll get to visit over 150 stunning locations. Its riveting story will force you to walk the thin line between two worlds, to try to maintain the balance between order and chaos, magic and science, dreams and reality. And true to its epic name, The Longest Journey offers a satisfying 20 hours long odyssey.
But for a more personal opinion, read what one of our GOG teammates has to say about The Longest Journey and why it's a timeless adventure.

I remember my first encounter with April Ryan when I was a teenager. Multidimensional travel was my thing then, and the twin worlds of Arcadia and Stark reminded me in many ways of The Neverending Story, which I loved as a kid. TLJ captivates you with its characters that still feel like flesh and blood after so many years, the compelling story that you'll rediscover with each playthrough, and the music that makes this game truly iconic.
