    I'm sorry, but this is a gaming that's cashing-in to the franchise.

    I have nothing against Michonne, as I found her to be a intriguing character from TWD comics and tv shows. But other than the main protagonist herself, the rest of the game falls short. First, it's not the worst game out there hence why I'm giving at least 6. The art style of the game is still great to look at,    I'm sorry, but this is a gaming that's cashing-in to the franchise.

    First, it's not the worst game out there hence why I'm giving at least 6. The art style of the game is still great to look at, Michonne, as I've said at top, is a great character, and the gameplay is decent.

    However, for every step the game takes, it takes two steps backwards. Other characters that you'll meet along the way are pretty stale to the zombie franchise. You know, the rational one, "We can't sacrifice our survival for others" one, the crazy one, and of course, the a$$hole one.

    This game is not recommended even to the TWD fans    … Expand

    I prefer to watch an animation movie with this appealing and wonderful graphics than just pressing the button to forward the conversation, otherwise I would give it better score

    I must say that so far this Walking Dead game disappointed me. The gameplay consisted mostly of timed events where you must press Q or E all the time (yes, we had these in prior games, but I thought they were extremely over used in this particular iteration of the Walking Dead). The story so far did not struck a chord to me and finally, I found the episode TOO short! I could not believeI must say that so far this Walking Dead game disappointed me.

    Telltale, just fix your engine. I enjoy the upgraded shaders and lighting and the qte ui is improved slightly over past telltale games. It's still telltale through and through, but the characters came off as pretty one dimensional in this episode. Looking forward to the next ones but this could never stand alone

    Well.... i was not really impressed. I expected more, but I guess I have to be satisfied with this. Maybe the following episodes will do better. Let's see how the story will go out.

    Ужасное начало. Скучное и неинтересное, но потом игра разгоняется. Геймплей традиционный для игр TG, что уже надоело. Графика не режет глаза, но и звёзд с неба не хватает. Игры TG могут выехать только за счёт сюжета, с этим справились "Волк среди нас" и "Бордерлендс" - это были замечательные игры в плане сюжета, они держали, но в Мишон всё как-то посредственно, местами интересно, местамиУжасное начало.

    I certainly echo sentiments about the quality of the game and Michonne is an excellent character worthy of her own mini series but my concern is purely a value for money one. I would say the episode was a little short and as I get older and my gaming time gets lower I find myself searching for quality over quantity. I would't say this had to many wow moments and the £11.99 seems a little steep.

    There are little next to any references to Michonne's path until Issue 127 of the comics. And while it's clear that Telltale is learning from their past mistakes, their old formula is too poignant here to be ignored. In Too Deep is not by any means awful, but they can do a lot better.

    this game does not cumole the expectations , it becomes tedious and boring , not doing its job , and you hate characters that have no relevance in the history of the game

    Michonne and her own damn telltale story ? BOOM, well not boom it s short and boring. It feels like they got tired of making walking dead games and this is just the reflection of their boredom.If it's your first the walking dead game it will probably be a dissapointment but for the fans of the series it's an ok addition.

    И так... Всё как обычно, разнообразностью событий и не пахнет. События (сюжет) разворачивается так себе. поставлю 7 из-за некоторых экшен сцен и локаций, а так 6.
    Итог: 7.000/10

    Humans are worse than zombies. Humans are worse than zombies. Humans are worse than zombies. Humans are worse than zombies. More of the same in every aspect. [05/2016, p.65]

    Michonne's miniseries focuses heavily on the main character and fast narrative leaving some of the story elements too open and hazy. The dialog is top notch and the story is compelling, hopefully next time the carrot hanging on the cliffhanger is little sweeter. [Apr 2016]

    Fans of the comic books will surely love this addition to Michonne’s story, as it gives a glimpse into what went on during her disappearance in the comics. Others will enjoy it for its easy to learn gameplay, terrifying post-apocalyptic world, and its cast of unique characters.
