    Good game, definitely one of the best made by Telltale. Very unique universe and great main protagonist. Good story overall. Too bad that 2nd part is not going to be released.

    It's mostly enjoyable thanks to It's engaging narrative and great characters (Not to forget the art direction), but fails in It's gameplay, obviously It's not the focus of this story-heavy games but something to consider.
    It's a real shame what happened to the guys at Telltale.

    Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
    I believe The Wolf Among Us took game industry to whole new level with its intriguing story.
    Unique visual and atmosphere, great music and voice acting make the game perfect. The game has great character development which makes them look more alive. I loved how the game kept its drama right to the end. A proper ending and so many unanswered questions!

    However, the only reason that I don't give a 10 for this game is the influences of choices in game.
    Telltale games are known for freedom of choices; So I was expecting something like Detroit Become Human. I was surprised when I found out the game is actually pretty linear. Like whatever you do, the result is the same. In another words, It was more like of a to-get-involved kind of choices, not to-make-your-own-story choices. This makes game unworthy to play second playthrough.
    In general, it's 100% worth playing because you don't only play the game, you live with it.

    I am not too familiar with the fable comic series but for the first impression of this franchise, this game is amazing. The concept of fairy tale characters living in the modern-day is very interesting. Tell-Tale has made quite a niche game. The story of the game was very well written, the only reason why this isn't 10/10 is that I felt my choices didn't really matter unlike games in TheI am not too familiar with the fable comic series but for the first impression of this franchise, this game is amazing.

    In The Wolf Among Us, you follow the story and use deductions to make better choices. This preserves its narrative flow, while still rewarding you for solving its mysteries.

    독특하고 매력적인 세계관에서 하드보일드 탐정물 표현한건 역대급. 이러고 시즌2 안내놓는건 범죄. 행동에 따른 결과가 크진 않아도 분명 드러난다는점도 좋다.

    Avere la possibilità di fare delle scelte che cambieranno il corso della storia? I'm in! Uno dei giochi migliori di questo genere, dalla grafica che richiama il disegno del fumetto originale, alle storia non troppo complessa e godibile, fino ai personaggi ben caratterizzati.
    Creature sovrannaturali, combattimenti e tanta avventura, è questo TWAU.

    This is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than twd. I generally dont care about characters that die in the opening act or just found lyin in a fckin tree house like in twd. This is NOT different from all the other "click this do that" games but its definitely the best of all. The writing in this game is not special but it gets right to the mf point.

U wanna know why its happening ?? Here's why but , not like the other games where they say how their PP got a bonner while they were runin frm fckin zombies. All the 5 eps is consistent and u will be hooked to the game even after leaving the game in middle for one whole year (like me)

    Overall , this is the best an interactive game can be.

    it's first time i played this genre. The game is more of a movie rather than a game. However it was extremely interesting, the plot of the story holds you in suspense all the time. The choices you make that affect the story are nice too (wish they had bigger impact though, giving 9 instead of 10 because of that). The graphics are a bit cartoony, but still very pleasant.

    O problema desse jogo é que a maioria dos diálogos são inúteis tanto que se vc ficar quieto n muda nada, padrão telltale por isso que faliu (mas o jogo é bom bem estiloso e talz).

    Охуенное интерактивное кино : ебейший сюжет + интересные персонажи. Минусы : ощущение незаконченности в конце

    There is nothing I can say too much for this game. I think the thoughts of me and everyone in general are the same. It was by far the best game of Telltale Games. If he continued, he would have stopped even The Walking Dead series, but instead they kept making stupid games and they eventually went down. I really want to see more with a different game company in the future.

    The best game from Telltale Games after the first season of The Walking Dead. Interesting detective, interesting knowledge, atmospheric music. Telltale music is always in order!

    Best Telltale game hands down but sadly it still suffers from the biggest flaw of it's kind: fake choices.

    one of the best stories I have ever played. this wonderful game is based on the fables comics. it does not spoil anything crucial to the comic, in fact this game seems to be an alternative universe. in any case the events of this game definitely take place before those of the comic. putting things simply, this game is what would happen if a realistic shrek universe ended up in hiding inone of the best stories I have ever played. this wonderful game is based on the fables comics. it does not spoil anything crucial to the comic, in fact this game seems to be an alternative universe. in any case the events of this game definitely take place before those of the comic. putting things simply, this game is what would happen if a realistic shrek universe ended up in hiding in our world, running from the armies of a conqueror. and the main character is like always-smoking wolverine.
