Dreamfall Chapters´ episodic storyline have some great moments, but gameplay is too simple and puzzles are not well balanced. Technical aspects (except for the main character models) are poor.

If you're looking for a great story set in two beautifully designed worlds, I think this'll be right up your street. It's a shame there a quite a few problems holding it back.
Dreamfall Chapters is a hard sell for all but the most devoted fans of The Longest Journey. Story aside there's little else that encourages investment of your time. Troublesome tech niggles alongside poor pacing and inconsistent puzzling sits some really intriguing characters and two worlds filled with narrative wonder. That you have to outpace your boredom to reach the juicy bit of Dreamfall Chapters' rich story is perhaps the biggest obstacle of all.
Dreamfall Chapters on the PS4 can be called "Mighty No. 9 from the world of adventures", which stands in a row with Syberia III. As a result, the project can be recommended only to the largest fans of the original, who are ready to forgive the game for all its shortcomings. Console version of Dreamfall Chapters is one of the most unsuccessful ports and yet another Unity anti-advertising.

Dreamfall Chapters is a satisfying conclusion to the nearly twenty-year saga along The Longest Journey. Even those fresh to the series can grow to appreciate the challenges that Kian and Zoë each face.
For those who have grown accustomed to the Telltale approach to adventure gaming, Dreamfall Chapters might prove to be too frustrating an experience to warrant persevering with, but for people who fondly remember trapping the infamous goat in Broken Sword or the rubber chicken zip-line in Monkey Island, it might provide a welcome dose of nostalgia.
The story is engaging enough that Chapters is able to weather the storm brought on by the lackluster gameplay elements to become a title that both new and old fans of the series should enjoy.
