![]() The game is made up of five long episodes that take about an hour to an hour and a half to complete. It is a sequel to The Walking Dead: Season One and the DLC 400 Days. “The Walking Dead: Season Two” is a game made by Telltale Games (The same company that made Borderlands), and released in December of 2013. “The Walking Dead: Season Two” is a game made by Telltale Games (The same Oh my goodness, this game edged a very close place in my heart. Oh my goodness, this game edged a very close place in my heart. If you want to buy I would wait for inevitable cheap, used copies to pop up. As with the first due to the short length and limited replayability I would recommend this game as a rent, not buy. Whether it be doing manual labor or walking through snowy woods there were times when playing through the game that I felt as if I would fall asleep because I was doing something so mundane for so long. One knock that wasn't really present in season one is that in season two the game falls into lulls of not really doing anything. I liked playing through it and enjoyed the story, but it just wasn't as fun as season one. ![]() I started it early one Saturday morning when I knew I wasn't going out that day after injuring my foot and played the entire game that day finishing it up in the evening. While it may fit with the feel of hopelessness in the Walking Dead, it loses sight of the fact that games are meant to be fun, and making the player helpless isn't fun. Rather than in season one where I felt like I was making choice to try to make situations better or work toward something, I felt like many of my choices in season two were trying to grasp at what was being lost and choosing what to let go and what to cling to. While the game plays in a fairly similar manner to the first one in terms of surviving another day, the game's choices are less enjoyable. The characters are enjoyable to interact with and the story itself is interesting. Unlike the first game you're not a leader in the group as much as a small actor in it, trying to do what's best according to you during events that are out of your control. The game follows Clem from the first game as she tries to survive alongside another group of characters. The story and choices are where the game shines. The voice acting is excellent, just like the first, with every character acted out extremely well from beginning to end. The graphics are good enough, but you're not playing the game for the graphics. Hand drawn looking graphics and character models that don't quite move right. The game's presentation is the same as the first. The story revolves around Clem, from the first game, as she tries to survive on her own. For those of you not familiar with The Walking Dead Season One, or really Telltale Games games in general, The Walking Dead Season Two is an elaborate, digital choose your own adventure set in the Walking Dead universe. The Walking Dead Season Two never reaches the same highs as the first season did, and the valleys are a little lower, but such is the plight The Walking Dead Season Two never reaches the same highs as the first season did, and the valleys are a little lower, but such is the plight of a sequel to an amazing game. This game receives a 7/10, as it is, in my eyes, a great game. If you are somebody who hates cutscenes and wants to just be able to explore on your own without having to play a linear story, you might want to skip this one. If you don't mind playing a movie in which you control the outcome, then buy this game. And yes, this time there is more than one ending. ![]() Sure every once in a while there's an event in which you shoot walkers, but other than that it feels less of a game and more of a movie in which you control the outcome. The only thing that is not great is the lack of anything other than walking in-between talking scenes. The characters are great, the story is great, the plot is great. ![]() The world is so dynamic you'll forget it's not real life. The character development is phenomenal, and they are affected by your actions. Along the way, you will wish for the death of some characters, and that is exactly what the developers had in mind. Most characters in this game are likable, and all of them are easy to relate to. Every choice has an outcome based on your actions every action has a reaction. This game is different from most traditional games, it is a point and click game.
