The review provides a detailed overview of the gameplay experience of the choice-based chapters of Telltale's The Walking Dead series. The reviewer expresses a fondness for narrative-focused games, citing The Last Of Us Part II as a favorite example. Upon discovering the Telltale games available on Game Pass Ultimate, they decide to play them and share their impressions.

The first three chapters are praised for their engaging narrative and introduction of new characters, despite some plot similarities among them. However, the fourth chapter faces challenges due to Telltale's uncertain situation at the time, resulting in a rushed plot and significant changes from what was initially suggested. While the main characters stand out, the villain and main plot are criticized for being generic.

The reviewer highlights the breaking of rules in the game, where a character's survival in extreme situations contradicts established logic from earlier in the series. Although the endings are considered interesting, some twists left the reviewer disappointed.

Overall, the review offers a balanced view of the strengths and weaknesses of The Walking Dead's choice-based chapters, emphasizing the importance of narrative and characters in the player experience.
