I like a good, slow paced point and click game, but this one is just painfully boring. There is literally noting to do for the player and the sequences when you just need to sit through without anything happening take MINUTES (I kid you not). Music is OK, but pretty monotonous and it get's old fast.
Save yourself 120 minutes of your life and do not play this game.

Unfortunately, I have a cognitive disability that means I basically can't understand song lyrics without reading them at the same time. This game has *NO* subtitling available, making any meaning beyond what is presented visually completely impenetrable to me. I imagine it must be equally difficult (or harder) for people who learned English as a second language, or those who are hard of hearing or deaf.
With most of the songs having the same 'vibe,' sung by the one developer/artist, it's hard for me to discern any additional meaning from the game other than a sort of melancholic ennui about the meaning of existence and loss. I stopped after 45 minutes.
Please consider adding accessibility functionality - in the form of lyric subtitles - to your game.

Points positifs :
- Pixel art noir et blanc magnifique
- Bande-sonore superbement interprétée, très aérienne...
- ... Et qui colle parfaitement avec les interactions du jeu !
- Durée de vie acceptable pour le genre (environ 1h30)
- Il faut aimer le genre walking sim dans un couloir ou le style visual novel
- Donne à réfléchir !
- Des récits de vie poignants...
Points négatifs :
- ... Mais évitez d'y jouer après une journée difficile !
- J'aurais préféré un seul et unique récit de vie évolutif
- Parfois on s'ennuie malgré tout un peu
En conclusion...
The Longest Road on Earth est l'un des plus magnifiques pixel art noir et blanc qu'il m'ait été donné de voir dans le jeu vidéo, tout simplement. Le jeu se déroule de façon extrêmement linéaire, comme pourraient l'être un walking sim dans un couloir ou un visual novel mais sans aucune voix ni écrits. On y suivra une poignée de personnages anthropomorphes (corps, gestes et habitudes humaines avec têtes d'autres animaux ici) dans leur vie de tous les jours, sur quatre chapitres, au gré de thèmes assez classiques comme la famille ou encore le boulot, ce dernier tenant même une place assez centrale ici.
J'ai trouvé la bande-son superbe et tout à fait adaptée aux actions, au titre en général. Les différents récits qui nous sont contés donnent à réfléchir au joueur. J'ai trouvé la fin bien trop triste et j'aurais préféré plus d'optimisme dans un titre déjà bien marqué par la morosité ambiante. J'aurais également préféré le choix d'un récit unique évolutif plutôt que plusieurs petites histoires avec lesquelles on cherche imperceptiblement à faire des liens et auxquelles on peut avoir du mal à s'identifier.
Malgré la musique magnifique, certains passages sont parfois un peu longuets mais la courte durée de vie (appropriée pour le genre !) nous empêche de sombrer dans une infinie mélancolie. Jouez à ce jeu mais jouez y quand tout va bien, quand vous êtes heureux, cela vous permettra de relativiser, de réfléchir et de vous dire que ça vaut franchement le coup la vie >> 14/20

It features no dialogue and almost no written text.
There is a lot of well-produced vocal music, which provides a thoughtful ambience.
90% of the pixel art is good; The other 10% are great. There are even well-executed bits of visual storytelling.

This is something you should try late at night with a shot of liquor or a couple of cigs.

It's not just a game with good music.
Listening to music is just hitting the play button, but this game is a magnificent way to hit that play button and feel the music. Perfect mixture.
Just try to play it alone with no distractions.
Hope you like it as much as me.
Better than life.

The Longest Road on Earth
An interesting concept that excels graphically, but doesn’t quite work as a narrative piece of work due to the mundane story and indiscriminate music.
Zitat:
https://saveorquit.com/2021/06/02/review-the-longest-road-on-earth/
The Longest Road on Earth is an anthropomorphic narrative based game with no text and no voice acting. Scenes are played out in conjunction with musical tracks being played in the background. The scenes can be interpreted differently as there is no solid narrative, just a visual and audible spectacle.
There are four short stories to witness and twenty-four original songs, sung by the developer!
The stories depict events in everyday life like working and recreational activities.

???? Overall Impressions
The Longest Road on Earth is graphically impressive and has a nice ambience about it, but the gameplay is painfully slow and the stories are quite bland.
The four stories that we witness aren’t really interesting tales, but more of a peak into their mundane lives at work. Often, we will spend minutes sitting on a train or a bus, or walking along a street with nothing else happening. At first, I thought I must be able to move on the train, as I felt like I was sitting down forever. I could view passengers across from me but that was the extent of my interaction on the journey until I arrived at my destination.
I don’t mind interpreting stories but at least make them a bit exciting. Even slice of life games I enjoy but who wants to watch someone sitting on a train for three minutes or taking five minutes to walk down a street? There are the occasional things you can examine, or if you’re lucky interact with, and there are the occasional interesting things to look at, like a woman smoking at her window, but it becomes tedious, walking everywhere and sitting down for long stretches.
The character’s walking speed is very slow, so this compounded the feeling of frustration trying to get to your destination, and when you get there, the character just performs mundane tasks like making a coffee or smoking a cigarette. Nothing much happens at all.
The pace in the majority of the stories is extremely slow, with long drawn-out scenes and slow movement, yet the last tale was full of life, with short, interesting scenes and clever animations. I just wish they had used this model throughout the game. I understand life can be boring and sometimes this can be made interesting with the right tools but it didn’t work in this title.
The music had to play a pivotal role in creating emotion to make this project work and I believe sadly it has failed. I did not feel any emotion in the game or for the characters and it just felt a bit boring. The music did not change much throughout, and even though it was performed well, it did not fit into the scenes effectively. It just felt like I had the radio on in the background.
The Longest Road is graphically impressive with some notable animations, but the stories are dull and the music does nothing to create emotion during scenes. I think the concept is interesting but the lack of musical variety is its downfall. |

????️Gameplay
Gameplay is very minimal.
You control the character’s left and right movements around the screen whilst a musical track plays in the background.
There are instances when a white or black box appears on items, or occasionally a triangle. This means you can interact or inspect the object.
Inspecting the object just shows a closer up image of the item. You are unable to spin it around or zoom in and out.
Interacting with the object means you can manipulate it in a very basic way. For example, playing the piano or pressing a button.
The triangle asks you to hold the action button (like holding a key down on a piano) which had me stumped for a while! This is never explained and caused confusion. I imagine there will be people quitting the game thinking this is a bug.
There is no inventory. These tasks are extremely basic and just add a bit of titillation to proceedings.
A few times, I was left wondering whether I had to do something to progress or just wait. There were various objects like lamps that wanted me to interact with them but then did nothing. You will be waiting a lot in this game without much going on and it can be disconcerting.
Interacting with objects can initiate memories of past events or switch to a different story or timeline. Sometimes, examining objects can invoke a small cut scene.
The game is very linear. You must follow the path designed for you without any deviation.
The game takes around two hours to complete. There are no achievements or trading cards.
A controller or keyboard can be used.
???? Graphics
The visuals are undoubtedly the highlight of the game.
There is very clever use of camera angles, and the way the characters move and behave are extremely realistic considering the graphics are very pixelated.
Sometimes, the graphics are so pixelated it is hard to define what is happening in the scene and other times you will be marveling at the animations.
There are some lovely cut scenes that fill in story plots, and nice touches here and there that will impress.
I really did like the aesthetics of the game.

???? Sound
The sound is a bit of a bone of contention for me.
First of all, it sounds great. Apparently, the singer is one of the developers. I would say she is in the wrong business as she has a lovely voice that reminded me of a mixture of Julie Cruise and Billy Eilish.
The soundtrack is incredibly relaxing.
The problem I have with it is that it sounds very similar throughout. There are slight variations in pace and use of instruments, but even though it sounds nice, it becomes a bit repetitive.
Also, the songs don’t feel like they are specifically designed for the scenes. It just sounds like some incidental music playing in the background like you were listening to Spotify whilst playing a silent game. You could play whatever music you wanted whilst playing and I think it would have the same effect.
I was expecting some dramatic music to fit scenes of excitement, and melancholy music to accompany sad events, but there wasn’t much variation. Songs often abruptly ended and started again whilst still on the same scene which broke immersion.
????Conclusion ⚖
Zitat:
The Longest Road is an ambitious project with a lot of plus points, especially the art work, nice animations and the chilled ambience. It is a very relaxing game.
The music is performed well, with excellent vocals, but there is not enough variety in the music due to the same vocalist performing throughout the game.
I would have much rather heard a mixture of songs tailored for the scenes, creating emotion in proceedings and making things a bit more interesting.
The pace of the game is incredibly slow and the stories did not interest me enough to recommend this title.
I still think it might appeal to somebody who likes the music and just wants a chilled game to play for a couple of hours. I wanted a bit more drama and emotion.
