    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This episode of the epic series is very critical in finding important details about the Crooked Man, but was the most general and lacks key points that could be introduced to further the gameplay. I feel that this episode was simply an intro to the end of the game and didn't include enough to be its own episode. I also wasn't satisfied on how Beauty and Beast changed their personalities so quickly. Initially, I thought that Beauty was a kind, humble person that was quickly there to help. Once I saw the image of their rich and fancy apartment, I can't help but take them as spoiled and selfish. Also the choices weren't as critical because Bigby still got to visit both the Lucky Pawn and the Meat Place. This doesn't put pressure on the player and therefore causes less suspense in the game. This game overall is very well put together and detailed. It is very atmospheric and is very popular due to the fact that you can "Choose your own Adventure". This game is truly unique just like all of the "Tell Tale Games" productions. This episode sets the stage, for what should be, a very interesting finale!… Expand

    The story here has been sublime throughout, but as a game The Wolf Among Us still feels remote. [Issue#114, p.84]

    Exposition-heavy, yet light on actual plot development, In Sheep’s Clothing is perhaps the weakest episode of The Wolf Among Us to date.
