After she starts receiving eerie messages from a Stringy Haired Ghost Girl to go "find April, save April" (and her ex-boyfriend disappears on top of that), Zoë has no choice but to delve into another conspiracy investigation. Meanwhile, April, the heroine of the original game, is effectively trapped in Arcadia (the magical alternate reality) and fights against The Empire of Azadi, while an elite Azadi Super Soldier and third protagonist, Kian Alvane, is sent to assassinate her. Fans welcomed Dreamfall enthusiastically, but the reviews were rather mixed, primarily "thanks" to unsatisfactory (and, according to many, superfluous) action-adventure elements and the ending being a love child of a Cliff Hanger of cosmic proportions and the No Ending trope. Yet another Oddly-Named Sequel 2: Electric Boogaloo, Dreamfall Chapters is currently underway but it will probably take another seven years to complete (as of 2012, it has yet to enter pre-production, as most of its key personnel have their hands full with The Secret World). According to the Word of God (i.e. Tørnquist's late blog), it'll tie some of the numerous loose ends that were Left Hanging after Dreamfall back together, but won't be the long-awaited Grand Finale of the saga. The latter will have to wait until what Tørnquist has called the true The Longest Journey 2. Please add character-related tropes to the characters tab.
