The Profile

Funcom is a Norwegian video game developer and publisher founded in 1993, known for narrative adventure titles (The Longest Journey, Dreamfall) and several MMO/online games.

Founded in 1993; based in Norway (Oslo); developer/publisher of titles including The Longest Journey (1999) and Dreamfall: The Longest Journey (2006).

The available DeBaser review (by L'Onironauta) praises Dreamfall: The Longest Journey for its storytelling, characters and emotional impact while noting divisive gameplay changes (3D movement, action/stealth phases, simpler puzzles). The review rates the game highly for narrative and worldbuilding despite mechanical weaknesses. The reception is presented as split between traditional adventure fans and those open to cinematic influences.

Notable Quotes

❝ "Dreamfall: The Longest Journey" is a magical and hypnotic interactive experience, born from the mind of someone who knows how to tell stories: Ragnar Tørnquist stands halfway between a medieval storyteller and a more modern cyberpunk author.
