Feb 10, 2025In a more traditional "game rating" sense, The Longing isn't exactly something I'd say would net a particularly high score, but it has arguably more value as an experience than many other games I may rate more highly than it. Do I want to play it again? No. Am I glad I played it? I guess? Was it a worthwhile experience? Absolutely. If you're left here scratching your head, probably the best advice I can give you is that if anything I said above hasn't completely turned you off from trying it, you will probably like The Longing.

Jan 18, 2024The Longing is an idle-slash-point-and-click game that ideally takes 400 days in real time to finish. You can speed things up by triggering certain events in a little over a month, but the deliberately slow pace offers plenty of room for interesting discoveries about the meaning of life in a profound but unpretentious way. Play the game if you've got the time to spare, or if you simply need to be reminded of the lost art of patience in this fast-paced world we live in today.

Jan 11, 2024As you might imagine, we’re still quite some way away from completing The Longing, but the experience so far has been deeply unusual, and sublime in every way. It’s a game experience unlike any other – although one that certainly won’t appeal to everyone – and the mobile version is every bit as unexpected and occasionally joyous as the PC-based original.
