I not only cannot wait for the next episode, I'm already looking to the future hoping this game will be continued after the five episodes have concluded by October. All and all this is a fantastic game, especially to fans of either the comics, or of smart, emotional, story driven games that make players think and feel as much as they act. With that said, this is not an action game, its about interacting with the environment and with other characters. In fact there are very few of those, I only noticed three but they were very effective. Most of these events are also NOT quick time events or QTEs. These interactions are often heart pounding and followed by a powerful feeling of accomplishment when successful (and you won't always will be). During action scenes the player must frantically find somewhere to place the cursor and hit the correct button to escape/fight. When the cursor is placed on top of an object the player is given up to four different options to interact with it that are mapped to the face buttons of the controller. During the main gameplay the player controls the main character with the left thumb stick, and a cursor with the right. As for the gameplay, action adventure is a very inaccurate term (more just adventure) and calling this game "point-and-click" doesn't do it justice either. This problem is brief and few and far between but still noticeable. People and objects tend to stutter from one place to another in brief cuts in the cinematic. One issue I have with the visuals is their tendencies to jump. There is more meaning in what the characters don't say, than what they do. The characters faces are unique and extremely expressive. The eye-popping colors and visuals are a beautiful juxtaposition to the actual eye-popping and violence. As for this games appearance, when I first saw the colorful, cell-shaded screen shots I was worried that the visuals would set the wrong tone for such a dark and depressing universe, but I am happy to say that I was dead wrong. Many of the choices you make in this first installment only get you acquainted with the game mechanics and set up the story for future episodes. Players truly feel the weight of their decisions, whether small or large, immediately. All the characters are instantly fun and relatable, I've never been so invested in a game in the first two hours as emotionally as I am with this. Its a great combination of story and (gameplay isn't exactly the right term) interactivity. I downloaded the game and beat it the day it came out, and then I played it again. I won't get into the story itself (you can read that anywhere) so I'll just begin with how the story works in relation to the game.

The game takes place during the early days of the outbreak while Rick Grimes, the main character of both the show and comics, is still in a coma. Like the comics, the game will be released in short episodes every month, with five episodes in total. The show was great but after reading the comics it pales in comparison, now this game fits neatly in-between the two. I was first introduced to the Walking Dead when the show debuted, and recently I have begun reading the comics (on #90 now) and so far I was blown away.
