The Walking Dead

An episodic story adventure in five parts, based on the comic series about surviving a zombie outbreak. You talk, make choices under pressure and solve light puzzles, rather than fight. Your decisions shape relationships and how the story unfolds, and the focus stays on the characters more than on the zombies. Is it your kind of game?
