  werewolves (in wolf-shape) can have sheepish looks on their faces? that is just sloppy writing ... the game is very black and white. it lacks depth. and some options are like 3 out of 4 would be downright moronic / utterly idiotic. and the last one sort of makes sense. so i picked that one and was praised for my clever question. it wasnt too clever, only compared to the other idiot choices. it is almost like the writers want you to play as an idiot. "here, there is another chance just do or say something that makes you look or sound like an imbecile." the is a large werewolf camp with hunters, scouts, warriors etc. but nobody secures the perimeter. the scouts dont scout. there are no sentries. so a bunch of human freaks can waltz in and attack. because it was scripted, they stumbled across me and i could warn the camp, okay. but had i not been there, every werewolf would have been surprised be the lynch mob -- sure, makes total sense. the first one was okay-ish. but the second werewolf game ... no, it is not thought through, sorry. edit: just sloppy. a werwolf almost attacked me, but i talked her out of it. the next pages are about the aftermath of her attacking me. the trauma i suffered from her attack -- what attack?? this is just ridiculous. just lazy.

  I cannot remember the last time I wrote a review for a game so here it goes. This CYOA is great; the overall story is good, not life-changing great, but has a solid foundation for something as niche as a werewolf-centric story. The writing itself is decent, with a likeable though somewhat underdeveloped characters (in my first playthrough anyway), but the pacing absolutely lifted the entire experience by being amazingly tight. It is addictive and kept me glued to the screen for hours straight. On top of that, the sequel expanded upon the first game and is able to focus on the increasingly grey morality the werewolves found themselves in. It still has the same setback as other CYOA games, where the protagonist's choices are often presented in one liner that can be misconstrued or seen as moronic, but at the very least the game actually respects the choices you make. Initially I thought the narrative lacks depth, but a separate playthrough presented unexpected plot threads that add to the experience as more stories for the characters I thought were just background noise. I am definitely looking forward to the finale.

  Loved it! A compelling story about what I could definitely see happening if humanity discovered werewolves.

  Takes everything I enjoyed about the first game and continues the story directly where it left off, decisions and romances intact. There's some pretty hardcore violence in here, so be warned, and the romance scenes can get pretty spicy, fyi. The game isn't just about a prison break like you might think from the trailer, it focuses a lot on survival in your pack's hidden camp in the woods and keeping your inner rage-monster in check, plus some anti-werewolf zealots that want to kill everyone, of course. I'll have to play through it again, cause there's a lot of side content in there to keep me playing. Recommended.

  Werewolves 2: Pack Mentality lets you upload from where you left off to recap and then gets you right back into the action. It is an exciting first couple chapters, and I am still eagerly reading onwards, but you really jump in and are in the middle of all of the excitement. I cannot wait to find out what happens next. This game is definitely a page turner, it's hard to take a break from it! I downloaded it as soon as I saw that it was available (it had been on my wishlist) and ate my lunch right through it. I am gonna be tied up reading this book for the next few days, it has claimed my free time.

  The sequel I was hoping it would be! So many book and game sequels don't stick the landing, but this one avoided most of the common pitfalls: - The choices from the first game carry over and matter. This is the most important one, and the author nailed it. - There were something like 6 or 7 different endings in book 1, and all of them that I've tried so far have several unique pages and choices here before they link up for the main story. Good for replayability. - The relationships are just as good as before. (Love that Bly got a lot of attention in this one. I really liked her relationship in the first game, and she gets a lot of time to develop here.) - The stakes are high. Some of the new werewolves in this one are a lot more bloodthirsty than in book 1, so if you're playing a pacifist you'll have your work cut out for you.

  Oh this one was so worth the wait! Are there awards for CYA games? No, Honestly this is the best to date story I have read / played from Choice of Games. Its real, gritty, full of emotions. Lots of choices that let you the player BE the werewolf you want to be. And of course come on, Werewolves! If you enjoyed the first book, this one is even better! If you havent read the first one, do yourself a favor, buy both. This is honestly on par with Twilight (without the glittery vampires hogging all the heroics) or Patricia Briggs' Mercy series, but better because you can decide how you want the character to think and feel and react to the situations they are in, and whom they end up being interested in. Im so happy for this book to finally come out, and I cant wait to play through both books again and see how things turn out differently based on who Im with, and what kind of Wolf I choose to be.

  After finishing the 1st book in the series, I eagerly awaited the next release. On the day Werewolves 2: Pack Mentality came out, I instantly bought it, eager to resume the story from Werewolves: Haven Rising. And Werewolves 2 did not disappoint. The writing was great, on par with/better than the previous installment, and was enjoyable the entire way though. I am eagerly awaiting Werewolves 3, excited to continue the story further. Personal Score Rating - 10/10

  This series and Wayhaven are the best things going in the CYOA world, at least until a Rebels: Uprising sequel materializes and joins them. What do you want to know? I know what I look for in every one of these so I'll try to answer the questions I have before buying a CYOA game. Do you have a lot of choices? Yes. You are presented with a lot of choices and rarely read more than a page or two without some sort of input. Do your choices offer meaningful impact to the direction of the story? More than ever; yes. You can really screw things up, get people killed, and ruin everything. You can also really assist positively. You also develop meaningful relationships to characters that open new paths, which is a meaningful impact in and of itself. Is your character meaningfully represented as the same one you played in part 1? If you import your character, they will be faithfully portrayed in this continuation. No amnesia or sudden or convenient shifts in who your character is or what they've done to accommodate the direction of the story (I'm looking at you Samurai of Hyuga >:/) Additionally, the recap is exhaustively thorough and even if it's been a while since playing part 1 you will be well informed of what happened. Are the choices clear and their implications rational? YES. You can easily understand what your choices are intended to accomplish, you will not be blindsided by outcomes that make no sense or feel arbitrary and misleading. Well written? Engaging? How about character development? Yes, yes, and it's good like it was the 1st time around. Get it or nah? Get it.
