this press release, Funcom was recently awarded a grant from the Norwegian
Film Fund to partially finance the development of "Dreamfall", the long-awaited
follow-up to "The
Longest Journey" (thanks jd)
Scheduled for release in the fall of 2005, 'Dreamfall' continues the
story of one of the most critically acclaimed adventure games ever made,
and will bring adventure gaming into a new era. Focusing on story and
characters, 'Dreamfall' features unparalleled 3D visuals, advanced
character animations, stunning audio, and innovative gameplay - wrapped
in a unique and magical ambience.
'Dreamfall' is set in the 23rd Century, where a young woman accidentally
uncovers a conspiracy related to dreams; a conspiracy that may herald
the destruction of the twin worlds of science and magic. Confronted by
mysteries that she cannot resolve on her own, she must seek assistance
from the one person who might have the answers: April Ryan, the heroine
of 'The Longest Journey'.
