An excellent follow-up to Telltale's initial season of The Walking Dead, I ended up enjoying The Wolf Among Us more than that series, even if it doesn't hit with the same emotional wallop. Instead we're presented with a murder mystery that is, much like the setting it takes place in, much more than it seems. Especially impressive is the way your choices in the first four chapters heavily impact the tense final half hour in the fifth.

This is not a difficult game, nor is it an especially complex one (in fact it doesn't get much more basic in terms of mechanics - this makes the Sierra and LucasArts adventures of yore seem impossibly dense by comparison). However, it had me enthralled for its entire duration, and in the end, I really can't ask for more than that.
