The Wolf Among Us

One of my favorite childhood games! I originally played this years and years ago on my mom's Xbox 360, I remember begging her to buy it for me! I'm happy to say that I enjoyed it even more upon replaying it all these years later. I adore this game wholeheartedly!!! Its a telltale classic, and a fun, modern fantasy detective noir. The cast is awesome and dynamic, and i LOVE the art style!

Дуже приємна гра, гарна графіка у фірмовому стилі Talltale Games, цікава історія в дусі нуарного детективу та хороша варіативність виборів, наразі я пройшов гру всього лише раз, тому не знаю наскільки вибори справді мають значення, але по відчуттям вони мають більше значення ніж в серії The Walking Dead. Скоро вийде ремастер цієї гри, а після цього й друга частина, яку фанати так довго чекали, дуже цікаво що там буде, але ця гра має повністю самостійну історію, раджу пограти!

Played The Wolf Among Us in anticipation of the upcoming remaster and The Wolf Among Us 2, and honestly, what a way to revisit a Telltale classic. Even after all these years, the game still holds up incredibly well. The story is absolutely amazing, the characters are memorable, and the dark noir atmosphere fits the world perfectly. Every episode keeps you invested with its mysteries, twists, and choices that make you feel like you’re actually shaping the story. Bigby Wolf is easily one of Telltale’s best protagonists, and his character development throughout the game is one of the highlights. The writing, soundtrack, art style, and atmosphere all come together perfectly to create something truly unique. It’s crazy how well this game has aged. Replaying it now, especially with the remaster and The Wolf Among Us 2 on the horizon, made me appreciate it even more. A true Telltale classic with an incredible story.

It is my 3rd playthrough of this game. I played it on PS Vita , PS3 and Steam. The game is a listen and answer dialogs movie with some QTE and time from the time plot branches that will come together later anyway. There is one main villain that youll be dealing at the end, regardless of how you would play. His/her destiny will be in your hands and you will get 4 choices how to deal with him/her in the last chapter. All decisions , made through the game, will unlock different dialog paths and locations but they all come together in one logical spot at the end of each chapter. Sometimes at the corner of the screen appears "He/she will remeber that" ,that only means that the character will use your current answer or what you have done, later in the game in some other dialog. It does not mean that it will affect your path in the game or will prevent you to complete the game. I really liked "Tales of the Bordelands" style sketching graphics and character modelling. The shadows look very natural and they change when person moves his head. As for 2013 i find this execution of graphics really well done. The music and background noise make the dialogues pop for me. I feel always deeply involved in the game when some very appropriately chosen background noise or music theme accompanies visuals. For my oppinion the game somethimes lacks of smooth dialog transitions between chosen dialog paths. Imagine : you are playing like a jerk and you see agression and despair on the faces of characters, and then abruptly they all start to smile and talk with calm voices for no reason. I think those transitions should be worked out more smoothly to create more realistic experience. The moment you realise that most of your decisions only changing the order of places you wisit , and do not affect story finalle is awful and kills the joy of the game significantly. I think this game deserves a tree like plot with early branching and a 4 unique storylines. This game would benefit form AI driven dialogues , that would resolve 80% of the storytelling issues it has. I hope they will do AI characters version sometime in thefuture. This game totally deserve it. It is really hard to recommend or not this game cause it has very special way of storytelling that might put somebody off. Also LOR of the game is tightly bound to Fables comics series , so if you wanna to feel the full power of the story, you probably should read the comics first.

начал играть в the wolf among us в первую очередь потому, что люблю игры с правом выбора. сюжет понравился, персонажи тоже, нуарный стиль вообще отлично сюда подходит. правда, как и у многих игр telltale, иногда выбор выглядит важнее, чем он есть на самом деле. но играть от этого менее интересно не становится. в итоге игра понравилась. теперь жду вторую часть. надеюсь, дождусь.

If you're a fan of interractive movie games or Telltale studio, this is a good short game for 2-3 evenings. If you're not, this probably isn't the best place to start. The game's biggest strengths are its story and overall narrative. They are quite simple (not like Detroit level at all), but engaging enough to keep you interested. Unfortunately, that's where most of the game's major strengths end. The characters often feel a bit underdeveloped, and so do their relationships. At times, their behavior comes across as childish or simply illogical, making it harder to understand them emotionally. The world lore is also pretty weak. Even though the game is based on the "Fables" comic, it doesn't take advantage of its uniqueness. Setting itself is interesting and unusual, but the game never explores it deeply enough. From a technical field of view, the game has definitely aged. I'm not talking about the graphics - they're unique here too and it's ok. The bigger issue is the presentation. Some choice-based scenes are stitched together rather awkwardly, with characters interrupting each other's dialogue or suddenly jumping into actions without proper transitions, as if a few frames were missing. Despite these moments, I would still recommend playing it, especially if you enjoy interactive storytelling. Just don't expect a masterpiece, and you'll probably have a good time.
