The characters are all animated charismatic and actions understandable. To move forward in the action, you have to solve puzzles classic. But every decision affects the progress of the action - superb! So you have, for example, decide which member of the group you will save, and that just does not, or who you will leave. The USK 18 is fully justified - the game is absolutely not for children! And yet so much more than a dull gore-fest - claim and horror must not be ruled out. However - and so much can be revealed - the end in spite of all decisions always the same.
In total there are 6 episodes to play, in English speech with English subtitles. Each episode has a playing time of approximately (plus / minus) 2 hours. Graphically this is now not the bomb, but that is it due to the look and not be. Here are fun and atmosphere in the foreground. We must now look forward to the wolf among us - also made by Telltale.
