Ed. note: The following pertains to the PC version, which is available in boxed versions (6 CDs or DVD) and as a digital download (for which an additional 3.6 GB available hard drive space is required):

"Dreamfall is a different kind of adventure game. It's essentially an interactive movie. It’s much more Indigo Prophecy than it is Syberia. There are puzzles, yes, but they are few and far-between and not very hard. There's a lot of time during which you simply stare at the screen while long scenes play out. And it's all extremely linear.

"However, if you give yourself over to the experience, the game can be one of the most delightful interactive entertainment experiences you've had in quite a while. Why? Simply put, because Ragnar Tornquist and his talented team know how to tell a story.

"The experience of playing Dreamfall is so pleasant and user-friendly that I think it has the potential to be a “gateway” game, a game like Myst or The Sims, which brings new players to computer and video games. I know lots of gamers who aren’t adventure players who are eating the game up with a spoon. The experience of playing this lovely game reminded me of not only why I play adventure games, but why I play any kind of computer games at all. For any true-blue adventure gamer out there to miss this game would be a shame, because they’d be passing on an unusually lavish treat."
