There is no "right" when right may mean that an innocent child're be a predatory monster, and there is no "wrong" unwittingly may mean stealing the supplies they need, to live like you. The Walking Dead is the story of these options are not viable, and the choices you can come together to create an experience as depressing and pessimistic, because it is a remarkable attention and unforgettable.

The Walking Dead is not pretending to be anything less than a hard, saint his case study of humanity. They threw the cuffs Lee Everett, a convicted murderer on his way to prison when the first episode begins. In the first moments of a police escort distracted by zombie apocalypse, releasing Lee in a world that is almost as convenient as a cell can not go there. As soon as he connected with young Clementine, let alone a child after her parents took a poorly timed vacation and hired a babysitter bad case of the munchies meat.

Many traditional mystery, perse, because there are tasks that are asked to perform, the story is moving forward. Menial tasks like looking for batteries for the radio or train is not everything with better job themselves, but serve a purpose much needed pace and gives you the opportunity to explore the world a bit and get to know the characters. If you are looking to run Georgia pop the head of the monster zombies, you are best served in one of the many other zombie games on the market.


Although some crank by the contraction of the traditional gameplay, works well in the game. The effect it has on the world is fairly minimal in design, brings the telltale point-and-click adventure style game with a smattering of quick-time events and election-driven dialogue. Fill amorphous gameplay works very well, you feel like you are a part of the world, without having to go too far off the rails. But just because you can not be too far off the beaten path, does not mean that they have no real influence - on the contrary, words and actions actually play a major role in shaping the world.

Arte incredibly brave and give voice to the stories from the spotlight it deserves. The majority of characters that interact with well-developed, and it is not difficult to feel compassion even the meanest of the beam, so you really about who you have a relationship and who to disappoint you foster family .

More importantly, it makes it more difficult to justify against what you think is really "right", because you're going to have big, sad looking at you, you know. It's heartbreaking and motivation, inspiration and depressing.

Rather, it reflects the reality of life, reminding you that many of the options you have given effects preset, and some things just do not change. And yet it is undermining everything the Walking Dead unique makes perhaps the greatest triumph. Although not always in control, The Walking Dead makes you feel like you are.
