Dreamfall Chapters - The Full Series Reviews
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.

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.
If you can withstand its tiresome first half, Dreamfall Chapters offers intriguing concepts and a satisfying continuation of the adventure series.
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.
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 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 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.
Longtime fans of The Longest Journey series will certainly forgive the flaws of this third episode, to finally know the end of the story, but the others will be quickly bored.

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 stays true to the adventure genre it embraced in 1999, but sticking to the same approach in 2017 means it feels a little past its prime.
Dreamfall Chapters is the end of a story, but it's worthwhile getting on board at the last station of this long journey.
Dreamfall Chapters is a unique and satisfying adventure that fans of the genre should have on their must-play list
