The Wolf Among Us

More of a movie than a game

This game most certainly has good and interesting story. As a fan of The Walking Dead season 1 I might have expected too much going into this one. My main problems with this game are that it's mostly big chunks of dialogue, choices that don't matter much, amount of QTEs (quick-time events) and lack of puzzles. Gameplay consists of huge amount of dialogue with some unnecessary lines, fake drama and extended conversation points. 99% of the choices in this game are with which sentence are you going to answer the question or continue the conversation which result in minor frown or a smile and nothing more. All action scenes are quick-time events which is to be expected of a Telltale game. They were a bit too drawn out at some times. The lack of puzzles and exploration wasn't to my liking and I expected a bit more here. They did awesome job with The Walking Dead balancing balancing between exploration, puzzles, action and story. The Wolf Among us seems more like a movie or slideshow compared to The Walking Dead. Other than that the game looks good and has interesting story.
