The Walking Dead: The game - Episode 1 review (IGN)

CLOSING COMMENTS

The Walking Dead: The Game is off to a great start with A New Day. It has a believable cast of characters and a great look. Sure, the puzzles some adventure gamers love are missing and there will be an audio hiccup here and there, but as an introductory hook to the five-episode series, The Walking Dead Episode 1 has just about everything fans could want.

IGN RATINGS FOR THE WALKING DEAD: THE GAME (PS3)

 

Rating	Description
out of 10	Click here for ratings guide
9.0	Presentation A New Day is a great story filled with cool moments and fleshed-out characters.
8.5	Graphics Some of the art has sharp edges and tiny details look blurred, but overall, the comic book style is colorful and inviting. It's a pretty game.
8.5	Sound Great voice acting brings the characters to life. Still an audio issue -- a character suddenly becomes softer -- here and there.
8.5	Gameplay The new control scheme is easy to get the hang of and fun to use. Not many puzzles. Kind of an interactive graphic novel, which I dig.
8.0	Lasting Appeal I played it twice to see the other side. Real value will come as you play other episodes and see if your choices truly change the outcomes.
8.5 OVERALL	Great (out of 10)
