    Overall, the game is too kid friendly and it dosen't want to take any risks what so ever. Everything from humor, to story, to even the main characters are extremely one dimensional and cringe worthy to watch. I was willing to give this game a try as Patton Oswald voices the male protagonist, and he is generally a very funny stand up comic and for that reason i was expecting humor aroundOverall, the game is too kid friendly and it dosen't want to take any risks what so ever. Everything from humor, to story, to even the main characters are extremely one dimensional and cringe worthy to watch. I was willing to give this game a try as Patton Oswald voices the male protagonist, and he is generally a very funny stand up comic and for that reason i was expecting humor around the level that tales from the borderlands is at, however the "jokes" that are cracked just come off as bad and not in the sense that its so bad its funny either. Its sad to the point where the game thinks the best joke is "would you fight 100 zombie sized chickens or 10 chicken sized zombies".......and if that poor attempt at humor was enough the first time, they pull the joke twice!

    Now when i think of a minecraft story done right, i think of elementanimation, with there eggs guide to minecraft videos, which is creative in the way that it portrays its characters convincingly in a story that blends comedy and the occasional serious moment together to make it interesting to watch in the first place. Overall telltale bit off more than they could chew this year with this abysmal attempt at storytelling    … Expand

    WOW

    This game plays it so safe, it comes pre-packed in a condom. Such a sanitary experience. The game does not know who its demographic is and owing to that, the expected Telltale humour and storytelling is lost. This is even more of a "QTE" fest than than the expected Telltale fair. Such a disaster. I am off to play Telltales Monkey Island and Walking Dead to remind me    WOW

    This game is not that great as a long term minecraft fan the problems are all here minecraft became popular because it was about exploring and the sense of freedom and not being limited to a set story and also the price minecraft costs twenty dollars this game costs more than that and is exceedingly small at about two hours of gameplay while minecraft has loads of replay value and and multiplayey.

    What kind of **** is that? Who plays such a crap, and the more interesting Question is - Who developes such a crappy Game? Have they been stoned or what?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For the characters in the story, I am quite disappointed for their characteristics in game. Jesse is too OP. Axel is a very misguided character. Olivia is faithless. Petra is too dependent to Jesse and has no sense of adventure (in Episode 7). Reuben died because his friends (except Jesse) are too useless to prevent his death. Lukas is just a useless addition. Order of the Stone are indeed fake, but also too noob-ish. The Blaze Rods are weak and foolish. Isa is a useless character. The Youtubers are completely weak, they are probably impostors. White Pumpkin is foolish and stupid. PAMA is too stupid. Harper is useless, and has no proof regarding that she's an Old Builder. The Old Builders are also stupid. But Ivor, on the other hand, is just very funny and a natural.

    As for the story, there are a million ways to end this without even any NPC character to die, such as Episode 3, Magnus/Ellegard shouldn't have given Jesse the armor, due to Jesse being OP at dodging the Wither Storm.    … Expand
