I very rarely play JRPG's and actually bought this one for my son to play when he gets back from Uni.. I decided, however, to take a look and see if it would appeal.. i found myself getting drawn in to it's unique mix of social sim and JRPG and 30 hours later am loving it.

I had high expectations I won't lie, it was the first game I have played that actually surpassed my expectations. Recommended!

Do you know when people started to dream in colour? When colour started to appear on our televisions. Before that, people dreamt in black and white . How do we know this? We've been paying attention in class, and taking notes, of course.

There's a depth and breadth of imagination here – in terms of story, at least – that's rarely seen. It's a multi-dimensional tale that takes place across a dystopian sci-fi future, a world of sword-wielding soldiers and magical creatures, and the land of dreams that connects the two.

An impenetrable start for non-fans, but there's enough potential here to hope that subsequent episodes make this a dream everyone can share in.

The game and dialogue explores some very adult subjects, and the dialogue choices are always explained in detail; Impressive visuals and great attention to detail

Not nearly enough explanation to understand, or more importantly care, what is going on or who everyone is; Beyond the moral choices the illogical puzzles are the only real interaction

Dreamfall Chapters is the third release in a series that began in 1999 with the critically acclaimed PC-based point-and-click adventure The Longest Journey developed by Norway's Funcom.

Positives + Fans of the series will appreciate the update; + Unique multiverse gameplay

Negatives - Controls are stiff and wonky; - Script needs better localization

Dreamfall Chapters is the third instalment in the Longest Journey franchise. A series with a deep lore that began life as a point and click adventure back in 1999 with The Longest Journey.

Great story; Interesting characters; Choices add replayability

Poor opening sections; Some weak voice acting; No waypointing; Animations can be a bit bland

This game is not suitable for children. Firstly, there is too much swearing. Teenagers should not be swearing that much. Secondly, there is too much violence. One of the so-called "heroes" attempts to attack a teacher. That teacher was a villain, but you must never resort to violence!

The graphics and the story telling of this game are top notch.

It's a shame that Dreamfall Chapters is probably the only game in the series that will be on consoles, since the characters were already established before in the past games along a 20 year period! But playing the old games is not a pre-requisite to understanding Chapters.
