KING'S QUEST FTW

@FakeJamaican Compairing this game to King's Quest is an insult. Hell, comparing this to GAMES is an insult.

@FakeJamaican
They're Point-and-Click adventure games, but don't go expecting something like Monkey Island or Beneath a Steel Sky. The puzzles range from the obvious to the mildly challenging, but it's nowhere the level of difficulty a 'real' adventure game throws at you.

This is a GOOD thing.

The story is brilliant, the acting is wonderful (many of the original actors are back) and everything sound and looks great. By focussing on story rather than puzzles Telltale has perfected (in my view) the ideal of the 'Interactive Film' as many tried and failed to do in the 90's. By making the dialog interactive, and introducing puzzles that are challenging enough to make you really think but without leaving you pondering for hours (days) and breaking the flow, it really immerses you into the story.

Each episode lasts 1.5 - 4 hours, depending on how good you are at solving the puzzles, giving a total 8-12 hours of truly solid and immersive storytelling and gameplay. A pretty good deal at $10/€10!

@radioactivez0r If you beat the game it looks like theor will be a Season 2 set of BTTF games. ;)
