Gamespot:
"In 2014, in a pop culture environment where “make it grim and gritty because we’re adults!” is the default and least-inspired approach to everything innocent that's ever been made, The Wolf Among Us feels right at home. That would be an insult if not for the fact that Telltale Games, by way of Bill Willingham's strong source material, is far too talented to waste the premise on violence and grim urban reality for its own sake.
The premise is this: The land in which all the figures of fairy tales and folklore reside has been overrun (by a shadowy figure called The Adversary, oddly not mentioned in the game), forcing a mass exodus into the mundane--i.e., human--world. The vast majority of them settle in Fabletown, conveniently located in Manhattan, and you follow the efforts of Fabletown's elite and its sheriff, Bigby Wolf, to keep this new home from falling apart."
Games have enormous untapped potential to tell new and compelling stories through interactivity. You won’t be stuck in a long, drawn-out cutscene in these games. These stories are told through player interaction.
The first (or I guess only) season is still very much recommended, as are the comics that I only have four deluxe editions of so far. But, yeah. A season 2 would be amazing.
The Wolf Among Us 2 was teased at The Game Awards last December. Haven't heard anything since though.

Let me know when Tales from the Borderlands Season 2 comes out. Till then, meh.
Not having Fiona in BL3 was criminal IMO. Only one line where she's even referenced, and a picture on a desk, but they didn't even give her a part.:*(
One of my favorite characters of all time, and instead of even a cameo, we get a bunch of jokes about Rhys' mustache.
Oh well. Maybe in some DLC. The reference to her was that Rhys was looking for her. Still haven't played the season pass post content DLC yet.
He's the sort of guy who only appreciates something that has Sony on the box. Just check his comments.
If Playstation starts really pushing indie development though, his tune will change.
Following the announcement of The Wolf Among Us 2, Epic Games is offering the first game for free. From today and until December 19th, PC gamers can visit the game’s EGS page and acquire their free copy.
Paul writes: "Telltale Games has a strong history of taking inspiration from graphic novels, with perhaps the most famous being their The Walking Dead series. However, back in 2014, they looked at another writer’s work, a gentleman by the name of Bill Willingham and his Fables series, creating The Wolf Among Us in the process."
This was honestly my least liked TellTale game post TWD, the first 2 episodes were amazing but the last 3 all very disappointing.
