I've done all three Journeyman Projects. Awesome! I have to agree. They're very underated..

Found your essay about the Journeyman Project and I quite agree. My only disappointment in the third game was the loss of 'gameplay'. It felt more like choosing your own adventure rather than a game.

I've had the idea for another Journeyman game for a while now, but using a FPS engine to allow greater freedom of movement. I'm sure the geniuses who put the first ones together could enhance the FPS engines for greater immersion. Set the Pegasus Machine, Sherman!

I have all three games for the PC. I am very interested in this series because the game makes you think and realize what could happen to the past if it was tampered with. My question is this, why wasn't there an official book for the first Journeyman Project Turbo? I happen to be stuck on a certain area of the game. Please make a 4th series for the PC. Thank you!

Nice Site! Agreed, JP series is under rated! I am not a very critical gamer as reading and now these computer games have been a very real replacement for the "BooB Tube" TV for the past l9 years. I use a TV only for viewing my choice of content via tapes. Reading and computer games give me the same option. Keep up the good work and congratulation to Presto.
