A thoughtful and deeply personal title with stripped-down mechanics. The lack of dialogue or text allows you to create your own narrative through your time with four characters. Each short story will allow players to be swept away by the haunting lyrics of over twenty original, nostalgic songs.

Reviews

“..those who enjoy calm narrative adventures will find here one made not only with care, but also with mastery...”
9/10 – Vandal

“The artistic section of The Longest Road On Earth is one of the best implemented things that I have seen in a video game.”
9.6/10 – Comunidad En Español

“...fans of character-centric experimental works will likely want to give this a go, and it's a useful blueprint for potential future innovation, too.”
3.5/5 – Screen Rant

About This Game

Play in a song.

The Longest Road on Earth is a deeply personal and meditative narrative title. Play in the songs of four short stories featuring stripped down mechanics and no words. Each story is up for interpretation – what story lives inside you for each character and the world around them?

Be swept away by the haunting and sentimental lyrics of over twenty-four original, emotionally charged songs, sung by one of the developers.

Walking down The Longest Road on Earth will only take you two hours, and it’s worth every step.

THE SONGS OF LIFE


An original, intimate soundtrack with themes and lyrics that seek the serenity and simplicity of life is included in each ticket to ride on The Longest Road on Earth. Feelings, emotions, situations, and perceptions that aren't extraordinary yet define us as human beings, our stories, and how we share our lives with each other.

EVOKE MEMORIES


Play through four chapters that capture the essence of everyday life and skip through the snapshots of moments both meaningful and mundane — All set to a nostalgic soundtrack. No dialogue or text means that you can share moments of time with the characters and create your interpretations. Though the experience is short (under 3 hours) The Longest Road on Earth allows you to wrap yourself like a cozy blanket in the beauty of small joys like blowing dandelion seeds, collecting seashells, sledding on the first day of winter, and riding a bike on a summer day.

THE QUIET, SIMPLE MOMENTS


In The Longest Road on Earth, there are no challenges to tarnish the experience, no fail-states to punish you. Players of all ages, levels of ability, known language, or backgrounds can participate with simple controls and a relaxed pace.
