Pixels for Breakfast writes: In a world where zombie games are about as common as bread and water, Telltale’s adaption of The Walking Dead in video-game form has been a breath of fresh air, ditching the “kill everything to survive” mentality of other titles featuring the undead. The strong focus on moral decisions that actually change the story as you go along has not only been a nice selling point for the game, but has become a necessary function for the series thus far. Following on from an episode that lacked depth, Episode 4: Around Every Corner not only picks up the slack, but delivers the most important episode of the series thus far.
"Come hang out and talk Telltale with us. This episode we talk about The Walking Dead Episode 4 – Around Every Corner." -- PlayStation Enthusiast
GameZone: "On this edition of GameZone's 31 Games of Halloween, we're headed back to the land of the undead, but this time around, things are very different."
SPOILER WARNING. This series contains Telltale’s The Walking Dead spoilers that span across the entire first season. Watch at your own peril!
This episode, Justis and McBosspants try their best to fight against the growing linearity of the series. Surprisingly, their poor-decision-making Lee is starting to merge with their own good-guy-Lee playthrough as they fight against the boredom of point-and-click adventures, the lack of choices in the later parts of the game, and the exhaustion of recording two episodes in a row.
