First episode has maybe one puzzle, possibly two? by Worm 01/30/2015, 12:16am PST
I'm not sure. I liked it enough for a first episode so far maybe it's Walking Dead Season 1 quality? It's hard to tell with one episode. I got about 2 hours of play time out of the thing. I'm already getting the feeling it's going to have the same issues of choices not mattering, but if we're going to keep seeing these types of games I guess it'll be nice if more people than Telltale make them.

The voice work is fine, sometimes it's a little off but whatever. The story feels like a properly written modern highschool/college story with all kinds of shit about weed, social media, and selfies. It feels like there's various ways to fucking around but again, hard to see if any of it will matter enough to encourage multiple playthroughs. It does however have a SKIP FUNCTION which puts it miles ahead of Walking Dead.

The puzzle was hyper simple but it was something. I doubt it's what I was looking for but I did buy Beyond Two Souls so obviously I enjoy this kind of stuff.
