The Wolf Among Us

What a unique game. The Walking Dead was good, really good but for some reason I preferred this. It's edgy, fantastical and often darkly comical. Not to mention an insanely bad ass protagonist. The numerous twists and turns coil together to create a sense that you have no idea what is going on or who the killer is. Best of all, you get to play your way, be the Big bad wolf everyone knows you for or the good guy trying his damnedest to make up for past mistakes. How you shape him is all up to you. The only gripe I have is that it does not optimally function on Xbox360 consoles, even with a hard-drive. Even so, it is an amazing experience and a unique mystery that needs to be experienced at least once. Definite must-play.

I originally want to give this game a 8/10, but I went back to the game and boy did I love it. The story is like a good noir crime story with fairytale characters. From the beginning, it felt bizarre but I quickly got invested with its world and characters. The main protagonist, Sheriff Bigby Wolf is probably the most accurate character when it comes to making choices: You make a choice that's either satisfying or disappointing, either way, you're playing a character that just can't win. It has good acting, best style of art direction, and great narrative storytelling.

There's something about this game that no matter how many times I'll play it, I'll just can't get enough of it. I Highly recommend this gem of a game to the people who have not played it yet.

Based on the comic books 'Fables', this game is a story based RPG where your choices have an effect on the rest of the story. Made by the same people that gave us the brilliant Walking Dead and Back to the Future games, this game is the same style as those, but has a little more action in it. The animation is spot on for the feel of the game, giving a touch of brightness to what is, at is heart, a very dark and gritty tale that is meant for the mature gamer.

The characters are well done and are a fresh take on classic fairy tale characters, almost like the television series 'Once upon a time'. I loved this games take on Georgie Porgie, and there are numerous little hints and nods to many of the well known characters that may not appear in the game.

All in all, the adult content makes this game a refreshing experience, and the episodic release means that there is no rush to play the game and you can play through it bit by bit making it last longer. I hope games like this continue to be made and that the level of quality is on par with this game.

One of the greatest video game stories EVER CREATED, The Wolf Among Us is Telltale's best project they ever came up with. Yes better then The Walking Dead, Batman, and Borderlands. A sequel was in the works and unfortunately it'll likely never be released. Take a sec and play this game you will be hooked instantly.
