For those accustomed to the Telltale way, the strength of the game rides on its story, and not only does it shine bright with The Wolf Among Us but I think it easily shines the brightest with it. Telltale’s best by far.

On paper, this is the story of Fabletown’s Sheriff the Big Bad Wolf trying to atone for eating people's grandmothers, blowing down houses, and all the rest of his storied mayhem, but it is ultimately a tale of displaced people, second-class citizens whom other residents don't even acknowledge and just might happen to be Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, and the Little Mermaid. It's a strong neo-noir that gets its hands dirty just as much from the grisly violence you're investigating as it does from the ugly first-world problems of its upper crust. It's the story of working poor vs a harried elite, filtered through the lens of long-forgotten legends and folklore. It’s unbelievably good storytelling, and sets itself as a prequel to the Fables comic book series.

It's a triumph of tight plotting, wild imagination, and sure-handed direction. It's a game that never flinches in taking its story and its chain-smoking protagonist everywhere it can.

All aboard the decade-long sequel express. Destination 2024.
We’re nearly there people. Just a little bit longer to go.

THESE LIPS ARE SEALED

Decent story and plot twists. Loved both the art style and voice acting.
Really enjoyed the new take on the stories I've been told when I was a kid.
Looking forward to its next game~
