    Each morally ambiguous decision I made left me questioning whether I was the right person to be making them, but in the end, it was MY Bigby and MY story, and I can only thank Telltale Games for giving me the opportunity to tell such an awesome tale in my own way.

    Telltale Games puts to good use the Willingham's Fables in order to create a creepy and original place, where fairy tale creatures live aside from the glamour of the happy endings. A perfect noir thriller, and an interactive adventure that fans of the Californian studio will enjoy.

    Another piece of episodic excellence from Telltale, but it just falls away slightly toward the end. [Oct 2014, p.64]

This means more tough choices, top-notch writing, excellent licensed characters, and an intriguing morally gray world. The results are once again fantastic.

    It succeeds because once again this feels like your story. The often brutal and tough choices you have to make matter, and influence the story in unique ways. Bigby might be a character that's personality and convictions have already been established in other media, but I still felt like I was in control of him and was shaping him to be the type of person I wanted him to be. Thats incredibly impressive.

    It's an experience that's filled with unforgettable moments and a compelling word and story that's filled with awesome characters. As someone who had no previous experience with the comic books this ties into, this game has peaked my curiosity enough that I plan to dive into them in the future. Telltale's TWD follow up is excellent. An absolute must-play for those who loved TWD, and want to see what Telltale can do with a different universe.

    Maybe not as intensive as The Walking Dead, but it feels more original, more unique, more colorful. It's nice to meet all these FablesMaybe not as intensive as The Walking Dead, but it feels more original, more unique, more colorful. It's nice to meet all these Fables characters and as always, from the story and adventure perspective, this is a ride worth taking. Gameplay is nothing to write home about and Telltale should really work on their technical side of things (frequent freezes on long long loading screens, stuttering, text switching to different languages from time to time etc.) But despite that, this is a good story driven adventure into a unique twist on reality. 6/10 Full Review »
