As it is Telltale, I'd bet that it probably is good.

Ever since the Broken Sword series being turned into heap of ****e 3rd game onwards, I'd rather get some user feedback no matter what games the studio has made before.

I got it. My girlfriend bought it for me for Christmas. It's short, took me about 2 hours to finish it all. It ends on a cliffhanger to hook you for the next episode.

I'd pick it up if you're a fan of the movies, and I had a ball playing it even if it was short. I was annoyed when it ended because I wanted to keep going and see how the rest of the series will play out.

Thanks for that.

Guess I wait for all the episodes to come out and see then if I am still interested and buy the whole thing.

Hey Dowly I saw it for sale at gamersgate for 24 dollars. You get episode 1 now and then the rest when they come out.

$22.49 on steam, and it's the same deal.

Definitely enjoyable. Not as challenging as some other similar games; you can't combine items into new ones for example, but the puzzles are decent enough.

Remarkably there's quite a bit of dialogue, though most of it is just to satisfy your curiosity. Nice to flesh out the world a bit though, gives some more depth.

And the humor is pretty solid, but that was to be expected.
