    A lot of the pieces in this elaborately crafted game of chess are finally starting to move towards what can only end up being quite spectacular climaxes. Oh, and it feels damn good to finally fight back.

    The team at Telltale Games has done a spectacular job of creating a compartmentalised story that runs parallel to the books and show that fans know so well.

    Nicole Martinez and Brad Kane clearly care a lot about this world, and with episode four, they’ve introduced a lot of critical momentum to the season that makes it feel like the series has turned a corner.

    Game of Thrones: Episode 4 - Sons of Winter is another enjoyable interactive experience from Telltale Games.

    Sons of Winter maintains the good form of the previous episode by unloading plenty of tension, drama and action along the way. Roll on episode five.

    There's hope for the Forrester family, but their nightmare is not over yet. The fourth episode of Game of Thrones titled Sons of Winter, brings us some of the most critical moments that we have lived in the game thanks to an excellent script.

    Despite these shortcomings, Game of Thrones: Episode 4 – Sons of Winter is still an enjoyable experience. While I left the episode feeling like all the choices I had made were, and still are, essentially worthless, I also wanted to dive right into Episode 5.

Im having just as much fun playing this as i do watching the show, except most of the time im either crying or in disbelief when im watching the show. But anyway i can see this game going along way, and i hope Tell Tale make a season 2 similar to what they did with TWD. Full Review »

The graphics are improving, but the pixelation is still noticeable. Features a few cool action sequences as well. If you have played until here, you definitely won't regret playing this Episode.
