Dreamfall Chapters - The Full Series Reviews
Adventure gaming may have seen a decline, but with gems such as Dreamfall: Chapters and King's Quest, the genre seems to be on the mend.
Dreamfall Chapters promises to provide a memorable, emotionally driven, and truly rewarding story experience that's only let down by needlessly time consuming puzzles.
Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey is a tough game to recommend to anyone other than longtime fans of the The Longest Journey series. It suffers with technical issues, its pacing is terrible and obtuse puzzles turn the game into an unnecessary ode to the classic adventures in the worst way possible. There's a good story here, but getting to it demands a good amount of time and patience.

Dreamfall Chapters on PlayStation 4 certainly feels like the definitive version. It features all content right from the start, so while we did have to wait for the game to release, we got all episodes at once. It also includes reworked character models, improvements to the animation, better lighting and some added special effects to make the game pop on the PlayStation 4. If you're a fan of adventure games, then you have to get Dreamfall Chapters for PS4 today!
Dreamfall Chapters is not a perfect shot. It has a descent story, a proper narration, memorable characters but it's gameplay issues and technical problems lessens it's value. Even so, this game is a proper experience more or less, even for those who are new to adventure games.

Although Dreamfall Chapters fills in the checklist for an adventure story game, it still leaves some room for improvement. The game is good overall, but just don't expect it to be a dream come true.
If you can withstand its tiresome first half, Dreamfall Chapters offers intriguing concepts and a satisfying continuation of the adventure series.
Dreamfall Chapters is a lengthy and entertaining game with an enthralling narrative.
Between the lack of puzzles, needless wandering, and general heavy-handedness with certain topics, there were certainly times when I wasn’t enjoying myself as much as I probably should have been.
Dreamfall Chapters is a unique and satisfying adventure that fans of the genre should have on their must-play list
If you’re a fan of story driven adventure games with a focus on dialogue and problem solving, then Dreamfall Chapters is a gem even if you’ve not played the series before. If you’re not though, it’s unlikely to be the game that will make you change your mind.
As a standalone title, I found Dreamfall Chapters very hard to get into but those who do get absorbed are in for a treat. The story and delivery are fantastic and there is a lot to take in within the worlds, even if these worlds are let down by a few visual faux pas and dull puzzles.
