  Kinda enjoyed it, but the dev and publisher doesn't exist anymore, so there won't be a follow up. This first part of a multiple episode title ends with a massive cliff hanger. If you enjoy playing 1/5th of a story, go for it.

  I have just finished the first episode and what an episode it was already. I've played mostly all telltale games, and being a massive fan of the game of thrones series I was worried that this game might not deliver; especially with the other games within the brand name being pretty bad. This game so far has delivered, the characters have so much depth to them already and the amount of plot twists I wouldn't have expected. There was some funny parts as well especially when Tyrion Lannister was concerned they seem to have gotten the characters on point. So far I would recommend this game as long as you have watched past season 3 of the T.V series or read the books, because the way it is done is as if you were on the show and its written to perfection in my own personal opinion. If you haven't seen season 3 of the t.v series do not get this game yet. Overall after one episode I cannot wait for the next one. So far the journey has been amazing and MY personal ending was very, very unexpected. *Spoilers in comments*

  As most people Know all TellTale Games have been quite a hit with the gaming community and that is because of their rich story and great way of enforcing desicions and their impact. This game particularily hit a home with me as I am a lover of the show and the books, anything around this time really so maybe that has clouded my judgement here a bit. Anyways The pros and cons have always been a good thing to list off here The Pros: - Very Rich Story with a promising future and keeps the gamer entertained all the way through - Episode 1 was alot longer than i expected and matched the pace of the show making it a fullfilled feeling at the end - Seeing alot of the characters from the show keep their personalities and even sounded like the characters from the show hit home to me - The weight of my choices making me want to go back for more than just 2 times so adds alot of replay value - The fact this game is not afraid to kill of a character to progress the story further is a nice feeling and matches the books and show - The graphics to me felt alittle wonky at points but has a pastel feel to it The Cons: - The controls (Keyboard and Mouse) could feel a bit wonky at certain points like moving the mouse while walking - The Graphics to certain people may turn some people's heads because it seems like a downgrade from the previous games but to me that doesnt matter So as i finished the first act i cant wait for more and i will of course update my review as more gets released. I am particularily really happy with the ending of the first act and HIGHLY reccommend giving this game a try i think its a steal for the price listed 29.99 and offering more than some 60$ games out there. very simple yet ever so complicated

  As a huge fan of Game of Thrones, and the A Song of Ice and Fire series, I appreciate that Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series is the first official game that delivers the kind of quality fans get from the books and show. This is a violent virtual choose-your-own-adventure set in Westeros, in which you play from the perspective of members of the Forrester household. The pacing is a lot like the books, with chapters that alternate between several "point of view" characters. Although there is some outright action and combat, many of the decisions you are called upon to make rely more on diplomacy and tact than your martial skills, and as the series is constantly showing, decisions have consequences. The artwork for the game is really striking, from the trademark opening sequence familiar in the HBO series to the locations where the action is set. Some are places that we've been in the show (which is maybe a little too convenient honestly but still fun to visit), and some are new to the video game but everything still fits seemlessly in the world George R. R. Martin has established and the HBO series has visualized. Though the main characters are new to the game, members of a small Northern house mentioned only briefly in the books or show, they do (again, conveniently) interact with a handful of characters familiar to viewers of the show. Happily, all of these are voiced by the same actors who play the roles on HBO and so the voice acting in the game is one of the strongest parts of a game that already comes in strong with its story, music, artwork, characters, and design. If you're looking for a quality gaming experience and good serialized story set in a rich and well-envisioned world, Telltale games comes strong in its first offering in the Game of Thrones series. I can't wait to play the next episode!

  I will be honest, Telltale "games" are not much of games but well crafted enjoyable stories. There really is no choice. The illusion of choice is what is most prevelent. There are no two ways a story plays out, only two "choices" and one outcome regardless. So do not expect a telltale game to every REALLY give you choice that can CHANGE the story. That being said, and taking the game for what it really is, here are my further thoughts Would I recommend this game? If you love Game of Thrones yes, absolutely. For 6 episodes 30 dollars is reasonable with the first episode ccoming in at around 2 hours long, if you play slow and do everything possible. I really enjoy the stories characters who are well voice acted and engaging. It helps drive the story and you care for your characters and the people who you are playing and "protecting" I still think Wolf Among Us is the best thing Telltale has done and I hoped that GoT would offer ACTUAL CHOICE. Alas it is just another Telltale Interactive story. It does feel a bit rushed, and honestly Telltale can't get away with the Cell shaded "style" forever. They need to create a better engine that looks better and runs better, no blurring, jaggies or other graphical blemishes. That being said its not about graphics or ACTUAL choice its about a well crafted story that is enjoyable to play and experiance. If you like interactive stories, and well crafted and acted ones at that. Game of Thrones is for you. The series could be one of Telltales best if they start offering more ACTUAL choice and deepen the story which I am sure they will, it can be a fantastic "season" of Game of Thrones.

  Ever scream at the screen while watching Game of Thrones, just knowing that if you were in a similar situation you would have made a much better choice? I'll keep this spoiler free, but now you can make the decisions yourself and realize VERY QUICKLY that your decisions won't fare much better (if at all) than the actions we scream at the characters in the show for. Episode 1 was great, obviously can't speak for the rest of the season yet, but let's just say this is definitely Game of Thrones and it picks up right in the middle of the show. If you're a Game of Thrones fan this is something you'll want to pick up and experience for yourself. I wouldn't recommend this game as an introduction to the series, but for those that have watched the show this game is superb and you will be sucked in from the get go.

  Friendly Tip of the Day: The power of the spacebar compels you to pause and reflect on your choices. Yet, "Choice" is a sad and forlorn illusion with Telltale especially of late. Fight, Talk, or Bargain = No Difference. This frees you to be as idealistic and altruistic or as cold-heartedly cynical and self-serving as you want in your "choices" since nothing you do will ever affect anything that happens on this one-track plot railroad masquerading as an "adventure game". If you steel yourself and play it again as I did rather exhaustively, then you will quickly discover that your - "choices" - won't change a single thing beyond a line or two of spoken dialogue here or there...and perhaps the life or death of a completely insignificant and inconsequential extra whose life or death can have absolutely no significance since even if said character had a name and a voice in the story your "choice" will have relegated said character to "determinant" status. What holds for Telltale's TWD Season 2 also holds here thus far in full force: Determinant characters are effectively dead already especially when it comes to the plot. Don't get me wrong. Its still a good story. Yet it is painfully and quite frustratingly hamfisted in ruthlessly driving you down the length of its plot railroad regardless of your "choices" even when it makes absolutely no sense from any rational perspective. This is a point that bears repeating since it runs directly counter to the tagline for Telltale games. You can only fool yourself into thinking that your actions have some minute but meaningful consequence on the narrative and/or plot. This is a terrible untruth to uncover with this modern almost kinetic visual novel style common to recent Telltale games. Sure, you might argue that you can steer your character's personality at times and you get to choose their reaction to various stimuli but none of that is real outside the bounds of your own head. There is no real immersion since there are no meaningful consequences to any of your decisions in the game. The illusion of choice is very real here and that reality can begin to wear itself into a very hollow shell indeed especially if you ever decide to revisit your choices and make different ones expecting a different result. This concept of all seemingly at odds choices blending into a single unvarying outcome grasps the essential Truth of all modern Telltale Games. It is truly unfortunate that Telltale's "New Direction" strips you of any and all forms of meaningful player agency, interactivity, and reactivity but there is no escaping this conclusion. The bottom line is that baring a lot of people actually calling them out for it in favor of a lot more viable competition suddenly popping up in Telltale's little niche well...let's just say that Complacency is now the "One True King" of Telltale and "Long Live the King" shall be heard from their studios for a very long time to come. -------------------Summary-------------------- The Pros: +Great Voice Acting especially from the show's HBO cast +Good Narrative provided you buy into the false advertising of player choice affecting anything. +Protagonists are much more likeable and relatable than TWD Season 2 cast. +Excellent Atmosphere and Tension for the first playthrough. +Five more Episodes to [u]watch[/u]...eventually. The Cons: -Requires knowledge of the first three books and/or first three seasons of the TV show. No handholding. This is not an introduction to GoT! -You watch a group of powerless protagonists flail about...utterly helpless to affect or direct any of the events swirling in the world at large around them... -Lack of Substantive Reactivity in regards to your choices -Lack of Meaningful Interactivity with other characters -Plot Railroad is woefully single-minded in its implementation and often painfully transparent. -Meaningless choices. Illusion of choice very much "stream-lined" throughout this episode. -Art and Animation is overall very sub-par, unpolished, and glitchy. -Audio and Mixing poorly implemented and stitched together in some spots leaving a rough finish. -Lack of meaningful game mechanics that require player interaction beyond dialogue based "choices" especially once you get pass the first part of episode 1 which is the only dominated by QTEs and with none whatsoever once you get past the second part of this episode. -Of course, like all recent Telltale games; there are absolutely no puzzles of any kind to solve and nothing to do but simply click or move forward to advance yourself to the next cinematic scene in the very linear plot sequence. -The cinematography features a lot of servicable close up profile shots of currently speaking and often completely stationary characters. Not enough of the story is conveyed through its visual elements. Bottom Line: A good story with a lot of talented voice actors from the show that very professionally convey the proper tone and setting for their characters in-game but this is a good story with very little replay value since you have no agency and very little interaction as a player on what happens as a result of your actions. The game takes even that illusion of choice away from you by tossing you some throw-away line or two of spoken dialogue. The "action" itself is limited to you pressing a single key until prompted to press another key. That and perhaps several parts where you left-click the cursor inside a circle is about the greatest level of interactivity in the action you as a player should expect in Telltale's GoT game. If you want my advice, then you should probably wait until all six episodes are out and the "game" is on sale at a relatively steep discount before purchasing it to play through once like you are watching an episodic movie...before putting it away on your Steam library's digital shelf to collect dust and be forgotten.

  First episode review: + Original voice actors + Other voice actors do an excellent job as well + Cool visuals + Some difficult choices to be made + Cliffhanger + Fan service - Story loses a bit of focus/drags a bit halfway through - Difficult to follow if you haven't seen the TV series [Rating: 87/100]

  After playthrough of episode 1 I was thankful that the story is not just a retelling of the TV series, but rather a side story of another house in the north, The Foresters. Having read all the books and watched the TV series both helped and hinderd my appreciation for the game. Helped in the sense that I knew the backstory. I knew what was going during the opening scene at the Twins. Yet hindered because I also knew the characters and have definite opinions about Ramsey Snow. It was fun to be interogated by Queen Cercei, too. I am curious to see if they can generate enough original content that is significant to the story unfolding in Westeros. We will see.
