However, since I generally enjoy Telltale adventures I thought it was worth a shot – and why couldn't my first foray into the Game of Thrones franchise be a computer game?Ĭompelling PlotThere's a lot of drama, political intrigue and you'll be bombarded with ethical dilemmas left, right and centre when playing this game. As you know from my Minecraft: Story Mode review, I'm not much of a fan when it comes to the Minecraft franchise I also confess to not knowing much about Game of Thrones either, being in the 1% of the world population that hasn't read the books or watched the TV show. So when a Humble Bundle came out in July that offered these games and more for USD $15, it seemed like too good a deal to miss.
How I got itWhile I already had quite a few Telltale adventure games by the beginning of this year I still didn't have Batman – The Telltale Series nor did I have Minecraft: Story Mode or Game of Thrones – A Telltale Games Series. The game takes place over five episodes as well as a finale (so six episodes in total) and takes just over 11 hours to complete. Through your actions, you will determine the fate of those who have sworn allegiance to House Forrester, not only from the keep of Ironrath but also from the Wall, King's Landing and even the continent of Essos. You play the role of not one character but five in this game who all belong to a minor house called House Forrester ( that is in fact, actually mentioned in the books, but only briefly): eldest son to Lord Gregor Forrester, Rodrick, second son Asher, eldest daughter Mira, third son Ethan and squire Gared Tuttle. As I'm not a "Game of Thrones" fan, I'm not quite sure when the events of the game take place with respect to the books or the TV series but it starts at an event called "The Red Wedding" and goes on for a few months following that.
Challenging puzzles are instead replaced by quick-time events and lots of conversation trees – but what you say during those conversations are important as it changes the course of the story. What is itIt's yet another Telltale adventure! That means a game that is as close to an interactive movie/animation/comic book that you can get. Telltale's Game of Thrones not only takes place on Westeros but Essos too
