Replay Values Is Through The Roof
As with the previous two episodes, completing episode 3 will make you want to go back and replay it so you can see all of the different choices that you can make. It also makes you want to run through the previous two episodes so you can see what else will change in this episode. There are so many different possibilities and branches in the story that it will take dedicated players quite a while to get through them all.
NOT
Minor Graphical Hiccups During Action
The only thing that I could see that was wrong with this episode was that there were points where the frame rate would get choppy during the action sequences scattered throughout the episode. This is by far nothing major and does not really detract from the experience. This is probably the most solid entry in the series.
Conclusion
The Walking Dead: The Game – Episode 3: Long Road Ahead is by far the strongest entry in the series so far. It tells a riveting story with excellent character progression and is chock full of intense moments. Players who have the season pass will not be disappointed with their purchase. Those who are still spending the $5 should definitely think about picking up the third entry in this amazing series. Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long for the release of Episode 4 because I can hardly wait to continue this amazing story.
