If you liked The Walking Dead from the telltale studios you won't be dissapointed by the Wolf among us. If you also read the critically acclaimed Fables comics you will definitely love the Wolf among us.

Point and Click adventures aren't that en vogue at the moment and probably will never be as in demand as they have been in their prime (Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Broken Sword etc.) but tWau definitely tries to revive the genre and seems to be succeeding so far.

The story is dark and grasping and might even surprise an avid reader of the comics. Furthermore it has one of the most stylish protagonist you'll ever get to meet in an adventure game. Not only is the voice acting supreme, but also his looks, be it transformed or normal. In addition he is very easy to identify with as you can feel his frustration and the urge to let it all go to hell and let the Big Bad Wolf out sometimes.

Now for the bad parts:
The gameplay can be a bit annoying sometimes as every fight is mostly just evading by pressing the right buttons at the right times, but it doesnt really matter if you get beaten bloody by opponents as the game will go on anyways. Furthermore the dialogs can be a bit repetative as every character has a certain angle: Bluebeard is a ♥♥♥♥ and needs to be constantly reminded of that fact, crane is a creep and needs to be constantly reminded of that fact, toad wont get glamoured and needs to be..........

Nevertheless the Wolf among us is a very fine piece of software and well deserves all the positive receptions it gets at the moment. I can only strongly suggest that you buy this game, play this game and be very happy with this game.
