    The Walking Dead is a five-part episodic game series set in the same universe as Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic books featuring Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes.
    This is not another shoot ‘em up; it’s a game that explores some very dark psychological places, revealing that the undead are not the only thing to be afraid of when society crumbles.

    In this brand new story, you are Lee Everett, a man given a second chance at life in a world devastated by the undead. With corpses returning to life and survivors stopping at nothing to maintain their own safety, protecting an orphaned girl named Clementine may offer him redemption in a world gone to hell.

    Experience a dark, visceral and emotional series where every action and decision you make can result in the story changing around you. This tailored experience means that your story could be very different to that of someone else.

    Save 25% on additional episodes in The Walking Dead game series by purchasing the Multi-Pack [Episode 2-5 Bundle] via in-app purchase.

    All 5 episodes are available via in-app purchase.

    If you're fond of the franchise and want to play something that takes that source material seriously, and tells a great story while it does it, this game is definitely it. You seriously need to get this.

The story revolves around different characters than the tv series and is based on the comics but if you like The Walking Dead then you will like this!… Expand

This game gets you emotionally invested in the first episode and from there ratchets up the tension and puts the groups safety in your hands. The game constantly keeps you on your toes and even doubting yourself that you made a good decision. The comic book art style works perfectly for the game. Voice acting is top notch and sound effects immerse you in the experience. Characters feel and act like real people and not just video game characters. The gameplay works perfectly for the game and helps keep the focus on the strong narrative and character interaction. This game is one of the biggest surprises this year. Before I had played this game, I was scoffing at the idea of this game being game of the year but after playing it through, i'm very happy my assumptions were wrong. The game is not just a "game"', it's an experience that makes you reflect on your decisions. Something rarely seen in games and I'm glad it is 2012's game of the year. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for more than just a "game". Here's hoping Telltales continues to make more emotionally driven story games!!… Expand

I prefer the touch screen controls to the keyboard or controller significantly. But the lack of power the iPad has accentuates the technical problems in the game to an even greater degree than PC, XBox or PS3, when they were already prevalent on those platforms. The story is really all the game has going for it, at the end of the day, sadly. It's a shame. The story is unbelievably emotional and taxing from a personal happiness point of view, but the jump scares and easy puzzles do little to aid the story. I think this kind of game would have been much better if given a Heavy Rain style of playing, as it suits the narrative more. Great port, but the game itself is it's own downfall.… Expand

    ******I suppose the year in which this game won the TGA GOTY award didn’t deliver too many masterpieces.
