The Wolf Among Us

The game I'm playing this week is 'The Wolf Among Us', already I like how the graphics look, though it is 3D the art is created in a way to make it look like a retro 2D comic almost. The short sequence at the start menu is really cool, the lighting, colour pallet and music all together help give it a mysterious and perhaps almost ominous vibe, which really draws me in and made really excited and curious of what the game had to offer.
When first starting the game I realised that there is a time limit when deciding the choices you make, the choice situation is quite obvious but I feel as the player, you don't have enough time to make your decision, so I did not know how what would happen with the outcomes of my choice which I found it a bit frustrating because I always like to stop and think about my decision rather than just randomly clicking an answer, however I also feel like this makes the game and character feel more realistic and almost movie like. The interaction in the game also felt like I was joining in along and helping the character with his work but most of the choices I made for the character had no major impact for the narrative.
I did play this very quickly so perhaps my views will change, but in the end I really enjoyed this game.
