100% Complete walkthrough guide

A complete and spoilerless guide to The Longest Journey. Rate, comment and mostly, enjoy! :) If you dislike my guide or find any imperfection, please let me know in the comment section, I'll be more than happy to improve it for the better!

Introduction

The Longest Journey is a game mostly about listening to dialogs, watching April run around, collecting items, reading about history and solving some impossible puzzles. If you didn't run away until now, I wish you a lot of fun and good times in this 16-year-old masterpiece.

I'll try to keep my guide spoilerless and simple. Pointing out necessary things with the help of pictures and description.

Note:
I will not include details of the conversations! If you are stuck, you've probably just missed some important option in conversation so go back and talk some more until the diary icon flashes!
Also, spoilerless means that I will not describe everything that happens because of your actions, that's up to you to experience first hand. I will only tell you what to do to proceed.

Silly yet painfully true joke:
Do you know what's the only thing longer than The Longest Journey?

Making a guide to it.

Basics

Since this is a point & click adventure, your mouse cursor will change accordingly to what action you can take on the object you're pointting at.

Dark blue arrow framed in stone – walking to/run to (double click, very handy)
Red arrow – exit the area
Light blue arrow – able to be used/collected/talked to
Blue eye arrow – looking, April comments
Empty arrow – no action while in animation

In the top toolbar on the left, there is your inventory.
On the right, there are options and exit.
When the options picture flashes, it means you've reached an important checkpoint.

Always look at everything in the area, it might be crucial to your progress.
Always talk to people, some conversation options unlock after asking repeatedly and so. Your progress depends on it!

I'll write important storable objects in capitol letter.
If an object from your inventory flashes when put over an outside object, it means you can use them together.
To store an item back to your inventory, right click.
Esc to skip dialogs.
X to show all exits.

Amazing guide!

Some corrections: in swampy area you need to try to pluck the berries first, otherwise summoning the crow won't work.

Previously when getting the bird cage prize, you also need to make sure that you've exhausted all dialogues with the priest and the two sailors, otherwise the option for the bird prize won't show up.

Still at chapter 5 maybe I'll write more later if needed!

[Gagasomnia]

Definitely deserves a remake, the story in this game would blow everyone away, it's just so good! Hopefully one day we will get that ☺️

[Stacy's mom]

@Пятнистая Рысявка I'm glad my guide makes your journey smoother! @Gagasomnia April Ryan is awesome, I remember how sad I was about what happens with her in the later game. And this masterpiece of a story is deserving of a remake. I'd love it if it could reach a much wider audience. Good luck with your replay!

[Gagasomnia]

This is my favorite game of all time! The story is an absolute mind blowing experience and April Ryan is such a wonderful protagonist, I loved following her every step of the way, everyone needs to play this masterpiece! I played it when I was still a kid and I remember crying at the very end, I was not expecting that at all, cried like a baby! Thank you so much for this because I plan to replay it because I really want it on my YouTube channel! ☺️

[Пятнистая Рысявка]

Honestly, cba playing it by myself, solving puzzles, clicking through everything, but i like enjoying point n click games with walkthroughs like this one

[Vachi]

Awesome guide! Thanks.

[Stacy's mom]

Warms my heart ❤️ you're welcome!

[Stacy's mom]

It's possible, luckily you're in the beginning :)

[Chance]

Thanks for the response. I have exhausted all dialogue options and approached her at least fifteen times. I think my playthrough might just be bugged.
