Having been a fan of both the graphic novel and the TV series, it was surprising how long I put off playing this game. After picking up all five episodes on steam I finally dimmed the lights and began chipping away. Perhaps I was waiting till all the episodes had came out so I wouldn't be left wanting more after each cliff hanger.

I found the mouse movements to be rather clunky on the PC version that was probably my only concern. The art style, story and quick time events make a great combination...and more than once I was caught off guard. The story still sticks to the rails in a lot of ways, but the comparison between your decisions and other players at the end of each episodes puts a nice touch on things.

The game leaves you wanting more and could easily be played through multiple times whilst waiting for the next season.
