The Long Journey Home is an Adventure, Role-Playing, Survival, and Strategy game published by Daedalic Entertainment released in 2017.

When you play The Long Journey Home you will experience the following styles of play.

In an adventure game you generally play through a story, usually as the protagonist. They rely heavily on story telling and can be inspired from books or movies.
Role-Playing Games give you hours on end of game play where you can explore a new world through the eyes of your own character. They tend to be the longest style of game with the most immersive story lines. Popular RPG titles include Skyrim, World of Warcraft, and Fallout.
In a survival game you simply need to stay alive. Some have waves of enemies that get harder with each wave. Many are horror based, supernatural, or post-apocalyptic. They generally focus on conserving resources such as ammo and health, and sometimes employ elements of stealth.
In a strategy game the player is required to use skillful thinking and a strong focus on planning ahead in order to achieve victory over their opponent. They can be either single player against bots or multiplayer against other players. They come in both turn-based and real-time versions, the former allowing each player a chance to complete their turn, the latter having a continuous running clock without stopping. Resource management and exploration are common themes in strategy games.

How to Port Forward The Long Journey Home

When you are playing The Long Journey Home you might need to forward some ports in your router. Forwarding ports is a useful trick in gaming because it can really help to make your network connection most stable and on occasion even faster. Routers were not designed to allow incoming network requests and some games can play tremendously better if an incoming connection is forwarded through the router to the game.

Before You Forward a Port

Before you can forward a port you need to know the following things:

The IP address of your network router.
The IP address of the device that the game will play on: either your computer or your console.
The TCP and UDP ports to forward.

The process for forwarding a port is usually:

Start by logging in to your router.

Put the IP address of your computer or gaming console in the proper box in your router.
Put the TCP and UDP ports for your game in the corresponding boxes in your router.
On occasion you have to reboot your router for the changes to take effect.
