Walking Dead: The Game

The story is good. There's no doubt in that. But the game was likely not made with the mobile platform in mind, resulting in confusing, clunky movement and camera controls. It's also a choice-heavy game with no option to save manually or skip cutscenes (many of which are unnecessary and lengthy). So it means if you were to alter the outcome of a choice, you often have to replay a good 10+ min of game, rewatching the characters engage in boring, mundane activities such as opening a door (every door-opening in this game has a long cutscene. For atmospheric reason I understand why, but they should only play once). Did I also say you are likely to get some dialogue options wrong? Not because you would regret your choice, but many dialogue choices do not reflect what your character would actually say. The choices are a short version of your character's often emotional, long response, and there were moments that I went "wait, I did not mean it that way! I did not know you'd say it like a jerk...guess I'll have to rewind again." The game would be much better if it were not so frustrating at times. I recommend buying the PC version, which at least has slightly better navigation.

I purchased this game in 2013 on my iPhone 5s, so when I got the iPhone 7 this year I wanted to play this game all over again. I was having trouble, at first, restoring my $20 purchase. Thankfully, after researching the issue, I realized it was mostly user error on my part. They have trouble restoring purchases on new devices but there is actually a simple way to make it happen if you follow directions correctly. It's found on their website. Overall, this game holds up really well for being five years old and on a cell phone! It has a significant amount of choices that really do affect your outcome in quite a few ways and it ran really smoothly on my phone as I played. It's really odd to read such horrible reviews from a couple of people. However, nothing really gets 100% positive reviews. Just the world we live in.

I hate that I LOVE this game soooo much! The characters are so realistic and you get very much into the game! The reason I hate it is because people do die a lot (not gonna spoil it) and it tugs at my emotions so much. I'm literally jumping with fear whenever a zombie pops out and crying when a head is shot off! 😭 (Not to mention this game deals with cannibalism and lots of other gory, creepy scenes that could give you nightmares!) this game scares me WAY too much but I LOVE it! I'm a 17 year old female actually feeling like a grown man having to protect and save an 8 year old girl 😭 yes there are in app purchases to get all of the other episodes (only the first one is free) but I promise to you it is 100% worth it!!! If you actually enjoyed the first episode and were intrigued by the preview of the second episode, BUY THE REST OF THE SEASON! You won't regret it!! 🙌🙌

Omg the walking dead is not a joke when your friends say it’s fun. It’s a thriller, funny and it’s another good thing about the app it actually feels like survival training but just sitting and touching a screen. My favorite character clementine. A smart little eight year old surviving a zombie apocalypse. Just by sitting in a treehouse. Until lee shows up from a car crash because he murdered his wife for having an affair with another man. You can playas the character and play as in the beginning of the game. To be honest I would recommend 10 or older it might screw a little kid like a 6 year old might be scared of going outside for a while. It has violent, scary, murder, and sadly cannibalism. All I’m saying is that The walking dead is a good game for gamers that like drama. If you read my Review thank you and have a good day!

I bought the full bundle. None of the episodes after episode 1 would download. I had more than enough space and the App Store confirmed this works on my device. This wouldn’t give me my money back. I tried to delete it and download it again to see if it’d work. But I had to purchase it AGAIN in order to download them. So despite me already buying it, not only did it take my money, but it also didn’t even save my purchase on my iCloud. The money was taken from me and I could not even play the game. And I’m not even the type to have much money at all to spend like this, but I did it because I really wanted to play this game. So this was very hard loss to take in for me. I got scammed and lost money that I had specifically saved for this. There is another review who claims a similar case. I’m not sure if this will work for others. But I don’t think it’s worth risking. So if you are desperate, I suggest maybe getting the game or games from a video game store on a disc.
