The Walking Dead from TellTale Games is an epic point and click action-adventure game that stays faithful to The Walking Dead canon while providing new storylines.
This episodic game has only seen the release of the first episode, "A New Day," but it's easy to see that the rest of the episodes will be excellent. You start off as Lee Everett, a convicted felon. You will soon find out what crime he's committed and you will decide the fate of his character.
The Walking Dead focuses around dialog choices. Players are given a limited amount of time to choose between several dialogs, similar to Mass Effect's dialog system, except Mass Effect doesn't have a time limit. By introducing a time limit, players feel a sense of urgency. The Walking Dead allows you to portray Lee as a misunderstood man or a hardened criminal.
The story is engrossing, bolstered by great voice acting and character models. While the graphics in The Walking Dead aren't the most advanced, its cell shaded art style brings the comic book characters to life with vivid colors and hard brush strokes.
Since there are so many choices a player can make in The Walking Dead, your friends playing the same game will most likely have different stories than you. This gives The Walking Dead some stellar replay value.
TellTale Games has done right by The Walking Dead franchise with an engrossing storyline that bleeds into the comic book story. This game is terrific value and is a must have for fans of the comic or show.
