The Long Journey Home

The Long Journey Home from Daedalic Studio West, impresses with its creativity, innovation and high level of craftsmanship. The skilful presentation – with its rich, atmospheric soundtrack, the high level of detail in the depiction of the galaxy, and the varied design of the space sectors – creates a vibrant and diverse gaming experience. The skilful design of the beautiful planetary surfaces, with their colourful graphic style, creates a visually cohesive overall impression – everything feels as though it comes from a single source. Through the skilful use of the chosen audiovisual stylistic devices, combined with a gripping story, the team at Daedalic Studio West has created a credible ‘Voyager’-style sense of returning home and a genuine space atmosphere – as alien as it is fascinating.
