The Short Game

73: Journey

Listen Later

Journey by thatgamecompany and designer Jenova Chen is the game most often suggested to us by listeners, and for good reason. This 2 to 3 hour wordless game experience changed the critical landscape when it launched on the PS3 in 2012, and it continues to be a touchstone for gamers of all sorts. Some of our hosts are returning to this game and others are completely new to it.

Journey is available for download on PS4 and PS3 and is available on disc for PS3 as part of the Journey Collection.
