The third season of The Walking Dead attempts to rejuvenate the formula established by the series by introducing a new cast of characters, and it does succeed with it. Although it is still held back by the same old stiff animations, technical issues and awkward camera transitions, that never let it reach its full potential.
Telltale Games’ The Walking Dead series is the benchmark of episodic video gaming. Episode by episode the stakes were raised, culminating with Game of the Year awards for the first season back in 2012. With the final season imminent, what better time to look at start of the harrowing journey?
From The Walking Dead to Game of Thrones; which of Telltale's offerings had us clicking for the exit?

"Telltale have moved further and further away from the ‘adventure’ part of adventure games over the years, and remain cool with that. Even compared with episodes 1 & 2, there is basically no gameplay. Episode 5 does bring in some more (and more interesting) quick time events that mix things up a little bit, and finally help the game succeed at what feels a little bit more like ‘action. Each episode remains short though, with episode 5 feeling almost like an afterthought – a mixture of filler, closing out (some) of the plot-holes, and rounding out the action. None of them took me anything much more than 90 minutes to complete. Episode 5 is more like an hour. Telltale have certainly put more ‘value’ into some of their games."
