A less than stellar entry in the Walking Dead Telltale series that has a few impactful emotional highs, but feels all over the place and like your choices don't matter. Characters felt like they flip-flopped a lot, and a major story decision at the end relies purely on Clem's three flashback scenes (that don't relate to the current moment).
One of the first big "choices matter" visual novel with qte games, and Telltales big launch. Both when I first played it, and now, I think that this is a great, emotional game and has one of the best protagonists in the Telltale series. The fear and confusion of the dead rising and infecting is present here like nowhere else in the following sequels, and the choices do generally feel like they matter.
