    Maybe 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,Maybe not as intensive as The Walking Dead, but it feels more original, more unique, more colorful.

    Gameplay feels dumbed down to a linear walk with unskippable cutscenes, and QTEs (quicktime events). No puzzles, no investigation, no clever choices. It's a passive experience, with every option resulting in similar short retorts from the otherwise characteristic and memorable inhabitants of Fabletown.

    The game is well realised, well produced, well directed, well told. Well made. But it's a shallow core experience, and barely meets the standard for interactive entertainment.

    Conclusively, a game you can easily enjoy as good entertainment, but not a notable experience. I didn't learn anything from the story, and only the QTEs got me excited, for the wrong stressful reasons.

    Biggest takeaway for me was the easy Platinum trophy.    … Expand

    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]

    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.
