    The first episode of TWD Michonne was so touching at the end and the choices were kind of hard to think off (especially at the end). I think that this game will be a masterpiece just like any TWD games that appeard. GIVE THIS GAME A SHOT!

Great art style, great graphics like the old TWD games.
    A little bit clichés but doesnt affect the plot.    … Expand

    This miniseries is about one thing, Michonne. No one else. TTG has captured Michonne's struggle, and with such haunting hallucinations of her children, The Walking Dead: Michonne has made me feel the most emotion in a TellTale game since Lee's death in Season 1.

    A great little mini-series featuring a recognisable character for fans of the show/comics. While it doesn't have quite the same level of quality as Telltale's main walking dead series, it is definitely worth a play through.

    Episode 1 does a great job at setting the tone, introducing the characters and forming an exciting new premise. Telltall Games I can't wait for more!!

    Well, what can I say, it is JUST F***ING AMAZING! Why there's not so much games like that, which will hook you up to the story it is telling? Telltale Games, you made it really great!

From the "Telltale's TWD series fanboy" side this game having all you need: good and charismatic characters with their own stories, absolutely GREAT main character, Michonne, and, for the first time, those cool psychodelic flashbacks with her daughters are absolutely creeping me out in a good way and COOLEST ACTION with machette, when I was seeing that, I was just like "Whoa, well, you got what you deserved, you walking dead motherf**kers!". The only thing I was worried about is "Why the first episode is much longer, than the other two?", but that's not so important, especially when you will really "get into" the game. And from the technical side: I was playing on Xbox 360, and this game really pushes all the limits of old good Xbox. The graphics is so smooth and great, but I will not tell it about FPS, this is the only bad thing about it if you gonna play it on past-gen: optimization. Why they preferred to bring highest graphic they can deliver on 360 instead of making it rock-solid 30, or maybe 25 frames per second? I bet they would deliver us good graphics and solid FPS at one time. Even though optimization is not very good, but this game shows us that Telltale would port TWD:NF on 360/PS3 without much problems. Anyway, this game is very cool, even if there's a lack of optimization and there's no Lee/Clementine/Kenny/whoever-you-choose-from-TWDS. Must-have even on an old generation of consoles. 9/10… Expand

    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.
