GAME REVIEW – The Journey Down: Over The Edge

By Marty Mulrooney

TheJourneyDown

The Journey Down: Over The Edge is a point-and-click adventure game created by Theodor Waern, with music by Simon De Souza. Five years in the making, this isn’t just any freeware Adventure Game Studio project either. Over The Edge has been put together so expertly that one could be forgiven for thinking that it is in fact a long lost LucasArts classic from the glory days of the adventure gaming genre. There is artistry amidst its pixels, beauty within the world portrayed. Welcome to The Journey Down.

A fan project 10 years in the making, Broken Sword 2.5 is a very special game indeed. German-based MindFactory have created a lovingly crafted tribute that is free to download and retains the charming graphics of the original 2D games. Although it was released on September 28th 2008 (a full German version with optional English subtitles), it is only now in 2010 that players can finally play with English voices. A few years ago I was lucky enough to audition and successfully record two voice parts. Read on to learn more about the game and hear my contributions!
