    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Creepy and disgusting ending that goes way, WAY over the line for no discernible reason. A little boy - kills a puppy - with a rock; and that's not even the most disturbing part about it. I will be staying far away from episode 3.… Expand

    While Episode 2 doesn't quite hit all the targets, the mature and creepy story already has its hooks in us.

    Despite the questionable combat, Blues and Bullets remains a must-play episodic adventure with an incredibly intriguing story told with utter confidence by consummate professionals. Sure, the shooting isn't fantastic (and again there's a single joke that pulls me right out of the narrative!) but overall, this is as good as interactive movies get, and I only hope the wait for chapter three is considerably shorter than the gap between parts one and two.

    Adding yet more layers to the web of intrigue, episode two of Blues and Bullets offers us few answers to the questions on our lips at the end of the first episode, but it doesn’t leave you dissatisfied; it just leaves you eager for the next chapter of the chilling and mysterious tale that’s unravelling to arrive. For a story-driven experience, surely that’s the highest praise that can be given.
