    The story is developing great and I am exited to see how it continues. The jokes are even better than in episode one. But waiting four months just to play for not even two hours is really disappointing.

    I might be getting tired of the Telltale formula for sure, but this is definitely not as good as the original 3, with The Wolf Among Us as my favorite of the three). There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of interaction and it just feels lifeless. There are a few good scenes and some nice dialogue, but the gameplay seems even more sparse than before.

There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of interaction and it just feels lifeless. There are a few good scenes and some nice dialogue, but the gameplay seems even more sparse than before. I understand it's a point-and-click adventure game, but the interaction is at a minimum. It feels like a graphic novel with a few small "choose your own way" points.

    It is probably worth ten bucks for the five episodes, but that is the most I'll pay for Telltale games as that is their value to me personally.    … Expand

    I liked episode one a lot and even though i would say the jokes in episode two are better i have to say the whole episode (especially after waiting 4 months for it) felt extremely underwhelming. My choices for the majority of the episode felt like they had little impact and really meant anything, and the scripted sequences overall felt pretty boring! Plus no nice little cameo of any vaultI liked episode one a lot and even though i would say the jokes in episode two are better i have to say the whole episode (especially after waiting 4 months for it) felt extremely underwhelming. My choices for the majority of the episode felt like they had little impact and really meant anything, and the scripted sequences overall felt pretty boring! Plus no nice little cameo of any vault hunters in this episode. The whole episode felt pretty tedious to be honest however, the Handsome Jack moments were great and luckily he was able to help carry the episode. Overall i was relatively uninterested in this episode and i am not really that excited for the next. Wasn't even anything that shocked me or found a surprising twist in the story. TTG please try harder for episode 3.… Expand

    It continues the story which started as an explosion of humor and action in the first episode. Negative: it is much shorter and feels more linear. Still good, but a shade of the beginning.

    Atlas Mugged is finally here and Handsome Jack returns again this new episode. But Episode Two: Atlas Mugged's excitement level is little bit lower than Zer0 Sum.

    Despite my issues with its tonal shifts, Altas Mugged is another solid episode with excellent acting, humorous dialog, and an ending that has me eagerly awaiting the next installment. Tales from the Borderlands is two for two so far.

    Atlas Mugged confirms that we can expect a lot of fun from every episode of Tales from the Borderlands.
