    This is actually my first TellTale game. I actually wouldn't call it much of a game more than an interactive storybook. But the story is spot on, with great suprises. The voice acting is top notch. It's a faithful recreation of The Gaurdians of the Galaxy, with it's own unique story. For any true Marvel fan, this is a must buy. Can't wait for episode two!!

    Good usual TellTale quality
    they deliver no masterpiece, however is well-known quality with all weaknesses and strengths.
    Episode 1 offers a lot of space to the increase of the quality.
    Up to now one does not know so surely where the story, however, it leads there sounds interesting.
    Hence, wait like themselves for everything develops.

    Marvel's Guardians of The Galaxy - Episode 1: Tangled Up In Blue, Is a fantastic episode to introduce us to Telltale's take on Guardians of The Galaxy.

    The game offers a fun, enjoyable experience which for me lasted roughly around 2 hours. The voice acting is very impressive especially Nolan North as Rocket and Emily O'Brien as Gamora.

The game offers just the right amount of seriousness and comedy. I loved the dialogue choices and was really impressed by the fighting sequences. I really enjoyed playing the episode and didn't want it to end.

    I'm looking forward to the next episode, Telltale you really have outdone yourself this time.    … Expand

    Really enjoyed the batman telltale series and felt very let down by Guardians of the Galaxy. The game does not capture the spirit of the movies at all (partly because the characters are so different), and mechanics that were ok in Batman are just purely annoying here (hard to solve puzzles that aren't hard because they require smarts but because they are obnoxious)

    This is a pretty shaky start to a game that has a lot of room for improvement. It still has some better voice acting and definitely feels like a continuation of the movie.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It was fun to coach play with my 4 friends. Some of the choices were fun (like whom to give Thanos' body). And it was fun to check that our play group made all the choices really different to majority of players. However, the story seemed too familiar to be interesting. And the game felt so slow.… Expand

    Game sucks because of certain limitations on the gameplay because of the puzzle solving element is very counter intuitive at times. The combat is just squad based all over the place, Star Lord is the weakest link and I'd rather play as somebody else. Do not recommend playing.

    Familiar issues hold it back from hooking us on its feeling. [July 2016, p.90]

    We're left cautiously optimistic for Telltale's first foray into the Marvel universe, but the story needs to shift up a gear if this series is to escape the shadow of its big-screen brother. [June 2017, p.83]

    Despite [North's] efforts, a couple of big laughs (the world's slowest lift; Drax's sincere literalism) and at least one genuine surprise, you're left with a gnawing sensation that Telltale's formula is becoming as creaky as its engine. And that's a feeling on which you're unlikely to get hooked. [July 2017, p.120]
