    Telltale should just make animated movies. They clearly have no interest in actually making a video game, that's clear from this game and The Walking Dead. Like TWD, it's all story, no gameplay.

    The story isn't bad, but it's a video game, not a movie. If you want to make a movie, make a damned movie.

    A sad title that unfortunately goes under the false pretense that It is a video game when In fact, by English definitions, It's clearly an interactive video. Much like It's excessively-bragged about predecssor, the smelly dead. People who want story, go back to reading the comics. People who want video-games, go find something else to play.

    An assured and stylish first entry in The Wolf Among Us series that retains many of the hallmarks of Telltale's previous games while also providing us with a game that is unique in tone and setting.

    As only the first of five episodes, it is difficult to tell how the series will play out and evolve from here. However, The Wolf Among Us: Episode 1 - Faith makes a fantastic first impression and has us eagerly awaiting the next chapter of Bigby's story.

    If you know the "Fable" comic or not, you can only admire the work Telltale Games has done with The Wolf Among Us, in terms of genuine ambiance and graphic style. Very special, this universe mixing fairy tales and modern thriller works just fine in an adventure game. The tradeoff is easy enigmas and only some rare QTE will require a hint of thinking. But that's the burden of that kind of game and we know since The Walking Dead that it's possible to enjoy such a gameplay. All in all, the only unknown thing is the content of the next episodes of the series. Will we be overjoyed or disappointed? Anyway, we're eager to see the follow up.
