I really liked the characters, the mood and the music. I would probably say that there is no gameplay
, but I'm here for the story. Sometimes I didn't have time to choose the option I wanted, but it was rare and not a big problem. I recommend this game to everyone. Especially if you also liked The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series
TellTale does it again with a compelling, deep, and rich story filled with fascinating multi-dimensional characters in a completely original take on classic fairy tales.
The problem is that the game is practically the same as their other TellTale games: oftentimes no meaningful choices, arbitrary quick time events, some glitches and bugs and a dated graphics engine.
But for someone like me who oftentimes plays games specifically for the story you will find few better than this. It's unapologetic Noir, a familiarity with the grittier aspects of folklore, and there's so many plot twists that all fit perfectly into line at last. The dialogue crackles along with some amazing actors. Music is down-tempo and retro, perfect for the setting. Even the somewhat shaky graphics engine shines with a moody pallet and the feel of a living comic book...which is ironic because although this is based on the Fables series, TellTale managed to tell a better story and have much more interesting characters than the source material in my opinion.
I'll definitely revisit, not for the achievements, but just to try out some other vocal options to hear the performances and hang out with the characters. It's another really not that great game encompassing an emotional and cleverly written story that blows away anything on the big or small screen I think.
I do wish TellTale had focused on substance over style, but the style is some of the best and there's real meat to the themes and ideas being played with here.
