    A dark and serious take on an otherwise oversaturated genre. [Issue#86, p.102]

    A superbly shocking adaptation that drags the point 'n' click genre into the spotlight. [July 2012, p.84]

    Like Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, this is short, and is going for 400 points, which is barely anything. It's not so long that you get bored, and it's not so short that you feel robbed with the cost, unlike a full retail game which can outstay its welcome. The Walking Dead Episode One is a great experience which makes an overused genre interesting once more and tells a nice tale along the way. Hopefully the next episodes can keep the momentum going.
