    Игра с очень хорошим сюжетом, захватывающим! Рассказывающий о приключениях Ли и Клементины! Которые на своём пути встречают много трудностей.

    One of the best Adventure point and click games with a kickass plotline and the meaning behind it Walking Dead season 1 almost is perfect the illusion of the choice's executed so well I give it a 9 because of bugs that the Game has in it

    It's a great story. Nice graphic, I felt myself like the comic character. This game is a masterpiece.

    That was a great one. Is kind of a shame that any of the other Telltale games reached what they promised. No matter what you do in those games, you always end up seeing yourself in the same spot you would have been if you had made different choices.

    I think this game is about people. How we connect with others in a context of constant danger. The game talks about it trough Lee and Clementine, and i will never forget my journey with this two.

    Supposedly my assessment does not reflect the state of the games, because a lot of people (like me) complain about poor graphics, little progress with newer parts and old mechanics, but these are typical elements of almost every game, and TWD from Telltale is, as everyone knows, a "series "
    with elements of choices and Quick Time Events, so the story is the most important thing here, and

It's the same with Season 4 because I hope Telltale will bounce back and bring us some new Clementine or AJ adventures.

    Absolutely the best possible game I've ever played in my entire life. The game has such a smooth experience and the art that is presented to you is phenomenal.

The game has such a smooth experience and the art that is presented to you is phenomenal. Skybound has made such a masterpiece with this game, such that it won't continue. This game made me emotionally attached to it, and it's been just about two months since I've beat it. This game gives you a wide opportunity of choices that are well displayed for anyone that plays and how they feel to react as supposed to the storyline. The characters are astonishingly powerful and the voice acting is what really puts you into the game. The storyline for this game is nothing I could've ever imagined it to be. Even the first season gets your first tear out of a game. Personally, I've never cried over a game or was ever emotionally attached to anything in my life until I stood upon this game by a friend. This game is just the absolute best game I've ever played, and it will most likely never have the throne stepped upon by any other game. It reaches your limits for playing and putting yourself into the hands of the characters and looking out for them. It has grown upon many other users such as myself, and if I were to tell you one thing about this game if you haven't played/bought it, it will be the best money you will ever spend in your entire life, as a gamer. This is the first-ever game to make me cry, even keep my mind on it every single day since I beat it. The characters will be in your heart forever, bringing emotional, funny, and serious moments whilst you chose to happen. At last, if you ever want to purchase a game where you want to be in the moment, this is the way to go. Expand

    the chemistry between Clementine and Lee in this game is amazing; the choices you make have serious effects on the future and the way other people in this game behave to you
    the atmosphere built around the apocalypse of the zombies is really terrifying and sad
    after finishing the game, i found myself depressed for a while and that's how you realize a game is awesome in storytelling

    Este jogo é incrível. Não pelas suas escolhas, mas pela sua história, claro não tirando o mérito que as escolhas deste jogo te faz imergir mais sobre ele.

Não pelas suas escolhas, mas pela sua história, claro não tirando o mérito que as escolhas deste jogo te faz imergir mais sobre ele. A primeira temporada foi a minha preferida, apesar dela ter gráficos / jogabilidade inferior as outras, isto dizendo que para um jogo ser bom não importa só ter um bom gráfico ou jogabilidade, pois a sua gameplay vai se basear em todos os setores, e como este é um jogo mais voltado para história ou até escolhas (não iram interferir muito na gameplay, só em certas circunstâncias, mas como já disse ajuda a imergir na história) esses setores como é obvio irão pesar mais sobre o mesmo.
    Se gostarem de um bom jogo com uma boa história então JOGUEM este jogo seja pelo pc, telémovel/celular, PS, etc..
    Nesta aventura irão acompanhar o Lee, o protagonista desta história, num mundo pós apocalíptico.
    Se estás/estavas com duvidas se valia a pena jogar ou não, devido ao seus gráficos apesar de eu gostar MUITO da artes dessa editora/developer, (volto a repetir não define um jogo) espero que te tenha ajudado na tua escolha.

    PS: O jogo é muitíssimo bom para jogar sozinho ou até mesmo com um amigo numa call (assistindo), como eu o fiz

    Yorgun demokrat Lee. Oyunun bakış açıları bi yerde kanser ediyor ama çok da dev bi eksi değil. Bi de gerekli gereksiz "göz" etkileşimi koymuşlar etrafa. Görevi saklamak için daha iyi bir yöntem yok muydu?. Oyun interaktif film olarak başarılı. Oynayayım mı diye soranlara tavsiye ediyorum. Ama Clemantaine'ı üzecek kararlar vermeyin aq çok tatlııı.

    Первая игра которая выдавила из меня слезу я даже растерялся после этого..
    Тебе не важно какой это жанр какая там графика и прочее, когда игра про настоящие человеческие отношения.

    You’ll experience a storyline like no other. The relationships that you’ll establish to these characters are so strong and the soundtrack is just the cherry on top. I love games where you get to create your own storyline, based on the choices you make and Telltale’s The Walking Dead, does it like no other. Must play!!

    There's a remastered version available now, together with all the other games in the series, The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series, which is superior to the original game in terms of visuals and overall presentation.

The remaster does a great job of bringing the game up to today's standards, although the original game still holds up well in terms of graphics. I highly suggest you consider playing the remaster because it is superior.

    The story in this game is a part of the comic books "The Walking Dead," but you don't really need to know anything about them. You don't even need to be a great gamer to fully experience this. This game is so well-crafted that anybody can enjoy it.

    By far, this has been the best gaming experience I've had. I never thought it would be possible to feel something like this in a video game. The character interactions, exploration, puzzles, dialogues, and choices – everything is amazing. I cared deeply about each character in the story, and they all left their mark, whether positive or negative. I eagerly anticipated what would happen next at every moment, and I never experienced a second of boredom. Truly astounding.

    I did realize that this isn't the type of game with completely divergent routes altering the entire experience from A to Z. The choices do matter, but to a certain extent. They alter the story's delivery, while the core remains intact. This doesn't bother me, honestly. Some choices hold greater long-term weight, while others have more transient impacts. You can never be sure which is which. These choices can reshape characters, how they engage with you, even certain scenes. Consequences are present – don't forget that. They might not lead you on a wholly distinct path, transitioning from zombies to aliens, but they are significant, believe me. However, certain elements will always persist, yet the game's craftsmanship ensures you'll never predict which.

    It's a unique experience that will remain indelibly etched in your memory, defying comparison with anything else. It thrives as a video game, where you assume control of characters and engage with others. Honestly, I'm not quite sure what Telltale did with this game that made me love it so profoundly, but they certainly achieved it. For real, I even shed tears at the end, and I have no qualms admitting it. The emotions I felt for Lee and Clem in this game, surpass anything I've experienced for characters in other stories.

    Do yourself a favor and play this, regardless of your gaming inclination. Basic English language knowledge is all you need.

    This has to be one of the best stories in a game that I've ever played. While the characters are very average, they are just regular every day people, the interaction you have with them creates an attachment, and emotional bond that you can't have with film

    It’s not perfect but The Walking Dead is one of the most important advances in interactive fiction for a generation, with some of the most memorable characters of any video game.

    The Walking Dead is a serious, solid, but clay-footed work; in truth, it wouldn't stand out from the crowd if video game storytelling wasn't so impoverished to begin with.
