The Journey Down Chapter Three

It's quite easy to tell this finale and the preceding episodes where truly a labor of love. The art, music and detail in this series are excellent. I started playing this series when the original was released and have to wait the years between the following chapters; while it was frustrating it was worth the wait for a quality product. If I have any complaints at all it would be the final chapter may have been a little too easy but that also just might be me wanting it to last longer. Overall it's about +~-8 hours of gameplay so for the price you get your money's worth and a whole lot more. I can not recommend this series enough if you enjoy adventure type games, story telling, immersive art and music or just high quality work in general. Thanks again to those involved and hopefully there will be more in the future.

Having played chapters 1 and 2, this IS a fitting finale. This was a longer game than the second installment and therefore the price is justified by the content/story line, art and music. I played it in one day in various sittings; took about 8 hours. Only a few tough spots, but got through by rechecking scenes that had new options after I had accomplished certain objectives. I would suggest that you DO play all three chapters in order to make the story line coherent, but you could just pick up this game and play as is. But don't cheat yourself, play all 3 in order! I am glad SkyGoblin stuck around for the 10 years to complete the story arc.

If you’re a fan of classic point and click games like Monkey Island and dig Afro-Caribbean culture you’ll LOVE The Journey Down. The characters are well written, the environments are rich and the original music is incredible. The main character Bwana feels like an endearingly goofy old friend and the storyline kept me engaged the whole time. I didn’t want the game to end! It truly is a one of a kind and you can tell the developers put so much work into it. I hope this game continues to be passed on for years because it’s a real gem.

All 3 games in the series are fun to play. You have to play them in order as it’s a continuing story. The music, sounds and voice overs are great with fun characters and great accents. Believe me “Mon” when I tell you, A great value for the money. The third game had easier puzzles but they were fun and it was a little chatty at times. The scenes were drawn well with good design. I had zero issues on my iPhone 6s and the game saves automatically and does a good job of it. I still saved at times manually for good measure.

But it was a great ride. I played the first two games on Steam & rebought them here to play the Third Chapter. I actually may have enjoyed this iOS experience better. I agree with those who said the Third Chapter was shorter, but man, were the graphics amazing. The soundtrack was phenomenal. Overall, a beautifully crafted a game. *SPOILER* I do wish that Kaonandodo had more of a role. I liked his “No lady, this is your adventure” attitude but wish we got to know him a little more than just the guy who was asleep or rafted Lina around.
