PC Critic Reviews

Original Journey has a lot of good going for it. You’ll meet characters you will like to talk to, see environments you will like to play through, and meet aliens you will like blowing up with all sorts of firepower. It doesn’t really re-invent the wheel, but it’s a great game to jump into for 20-30 minutes and revel in the cathartic bliss of blasting away some bad guys. As I type, I’m already looking forward to jumping back in and playing a bit more.

Original Journey is, even with flaws, an enjoyable game. Its connection between a deep history and an amusing gameplay creates a satisfying experience that, with great aesthetics and good music, arises as an unexpected and positive surprise.

Original Journey is a game that is perfect to pick up and play for small bits at a time even with the shortcomings it has.

Contrary to its name, Original Journey is far from an original adventure, offering little to motivate players to see its campaign through. If not for the sake of this review, I would have thrown in the towel long ago. Unless you’re really keen on checking out some hand-drawn art, steer clear of Original Journey.
