great story with great characters.
it took me 12 years to play it, but im glad i did
a must play - 9/10
loved this game can't wait till Season 2 comes out but that seems forever please tell us anything anything about Season 2 even a pic SILENCE IS NOT AN OPTION!!!
absolutely amazing story, with really good graphics and the music is amazing. deserves a sequel and makes me want to pick up the fables novels. would recommend
I watched playthroughs of The Wolf Among Us a decade ago and fell in love with the storyline. Coming back after all this time to play it myself, I found new things to appreciate about the story and realized a lot of things that went over my head as a kid. After recently playing through it I also got interested in the Fables comic series it is based off of and while it is a bit different, it is nice to see more of the characters that I came to love from TWAU. I really couldn't recommend it more to anyone who hasn't played it, and even recommend a replay if you have already.
Definitely worth it. Awesome art style. Great visual performance. Just a bit pity that it only supports English officlally.
Good Story and Concept with good music too!

Cool game. Only other games I’ve played similar are tales from the borderland and until dawn. I’ve always heard great things about Wolf Among Us and it did not disappoint. I found the universe of the gables to be so cool and fascinating. Great game and super pumped for a sequel one day.
This is a legendary game that fascinate me despite being an old game but it's story telling, it's character made it one of the best game i played, even when i played all the seasons of the walking dead and minecraft story mode this one is more epic than them waiting for season 2 to release this year, wish they won't delay it more.
What I Enjoyed About the Game:
The voice acting is fantastic, bringing the characters to life in a way that adds depth to the experience. I loved the dark, mature twist on classic fairy tales, which made for a compelling and immersive story. The game's length, roughly 10 hours without achievement hunting, felt just right—not too drawn out, but satisfying from start to finish.
What Fell Short for Me:
While the choices add to the immersion, they don’t significantly alter the overall narrative as much as I had hoped. It would have been great to see more weight behind the decisions, making each playthrough feel more distinct.
This is a game that truly deserves a sequel, and I’m thrilled that Telltale has made a comeback. Hopefully, they can build on the vision of it.
Overall, The Wolf Among Us remains faithful to the vision of the comics especially in its world-building and character development, TT interwines these aspects masterfully with its signature storytelling style. I can confidently say this is the best game they have ever made. It’s a shame I played it so late. If you’re hesitating to give it a try like I did for some reason, I strongly encourage you to play it.
Unlike Heavy Rain and other point-and-click adventure murder mystery games, this one takes a fresh and unique approach to the genre.
Bigby isn’t just another cliché, drunk, miserable cop. Based on your decisions, you truly feel like an important member of the Fable community and he proves to be more than a competent detective. Rather than simply focusing on unraveling a twist, the game lets you shape the main conflict in ways that have a major impact—not just on Bigby himself, but on the entire city. This is what makes Bigby such a special and compelling character, you can truly feel the weight of his decisions, whether you choose to help others or ruin their lives.
Very much enjoyed the game. Great characters and story you'll care about and well worth the 10 or so hours to play. I took 15 total hours hunting achievements and replaying sequences to get them. A great and memorable game at normal price and a phenomenal game if you get it on sale.
The Wolf Among Us is an episodic adventure game set in a dark, gritty world where fairy tale characters live among us. I enjoyed it when it first released and still appreciate its strong plot and complex characters on my second playthrough. It's a shame there won’t be a sequel after all the waiting, as the story leaves you wanting more. Still, it's a great game worth revisiting.
Really nice episodic mystery RPG. The narrative is interesting, engaging, and well paced. The art style and all the voice acting fit the narrative and themes nicely. While linear, there's still a fair amount of variation that you can experience throughout the game. I got it on sale for $5 which is totally worth it, but after playing it, I wouldn't really have a problem paying the full $15. It's a great way to spend a weekend.
Last played through this game like a decade ago, it's a masterpiece. Play it if you haven't already.
If you experience issues with stuttering, play in Windowed mode.
Good game that hooks you with the funny concept of classic fairy tale characters in a dark and violent new york city, and uses that to become a really well written gem of a game.
truly a fun game, haven't played it for years and decided to replay it. still big shockz to the game after all these yearz.
This is incredible. Amazing characters, story, and world building. Can't recommend this enough to fans of choice-based games.
telltale games in the beginning were making some amazing games (like twdg season 1) and i think this is where they peaked this game has an amazing story with a great set of characters
if you like story games you wont regret playing this
This is one of my favorite games of all time at this point. If you are on the fence for whatever reason then just do it because the story is fantastic.
Definitely shows its age but nonetheless it's quite a ride. Recommended. I'm waiting for The Wolf Among Us 2 now, wonder when it'll drop... if ever. This game is good, though!
Gorgeous visuals and seamless storytelling, no matter which choices you make and the consequences that follow. One playthrough is not enough.
I was choosing which one to play first between this and The walking dead. I heard of the fable comics but never got to read it so I thought to give it a go first. As for this reason I was confused at the start of whats going on with some of the scenes lol but slowly i figured it out. This kind of detective role-play really hooked me up from the start. When in the beginning it told you the game is tailored the way you choose and it definitely lived to its mechanism. Each choices really take it to a different angle which really intensifies the realism. I have played other 'choices matter' genres but those really doesn't affect the outcome sometimes but this really lives up-to its demand. Now looking forward to their TWD series to start with. Thanks telltale for this amazing game. Hope will get to play a sequel in the future. Highly Recommended 9/10.
Streamed it and being able to have the community make decisions made it fun. What a messed up story it was good.
Had this sitting in my library for a good while, finally got around to playing it. Quite enjoyable detective story, finished it in one session it was that good!
The Wolf Among Us is an immersive, choice-driven game with a gripping story and unforgettable characters. Its dark, comic-inspired art and atmosphere make it a must-play for fans of narrative-driven adventures.
Best game ever! The story line and options are super engaging and fun.
i fucking love this game. everything is just so perfect. the character dynamics, the plot, the gameplay oh my goddd AHHHH I CANTTT BIGBY WOLF I WANT U SO BAD
Fun game, finished over 2 sessions, interesting mature story, good characters, interesting choices. Just all in all a good time
where is the second season? you cant just cold turkey me man, please i need it man cmon man i need it just a demo man please something just a little hit of that scraped gameplay or some cut content... JUST GIVE ME SOMETHING YOU BASTARDS!
It's good and there is some replayability at that (I sure am). I'm not sure if there will be a fast forward or skip option after finishing the game, which will suck (I would have liked that in a first play through). There may not be and is and possibly will be a negative point with the game. There are some character options/stories which you would like more seen, but it's not about wanting to see the origin stories outside of the game from the real sources, but from the game. Reason I'm talking about this is because this is a choice game, so seeing something more depends on those choices, which I'm sure I missed out on. (Which is common in these types of games I know) There are comics to see more as there is chapters, but I felt like I missed something, especially bloody mary (felt like an obstacle nothing really more than a fight which was cool, but she fell a little flat). Also, nothing too more explained about her (she showed up and said her origin story thing and that was it basically. We see her again, she different and fight her and she got nerfed without her something something. That was it with her, kinda disappointing.
The game felt a little outdated (gameplay), but even then in 2013 and not too much open world was a sort of miss? I'm not saying the whole game needed to be open world (only some sections where you could move around), but like the character movements felt very wonky, didn't feel good.
Steam says there is controller support, is there something wrong with my controller? Because shit didn't work and even in settings I didn't see anything related for controller or did I miss something?
There is also a minor bug where when going to a chapter at least chapter 3 I think it starts, animated scene won't start and choices will be left blank. It was confusing, all I had to do was go to home screen at restart the episode and it got corrected.
I'll give this a 7.5/10, no real big reason to give this game a negative review, not that I found anyways.
I was wholly invested beginning to end. The characters were very well written, and the artstyle is very unique and impressive for its time, Can't wait for the sequel!
This game is wonderful, I'm enjoying it so much. I'm on my second play-through at the moment. It makes me want to check out the associated comics, for sure.
Imagine a game where fairy tale characters and a noir inspired style are merged together, and you get The Wolf Among Us. Developed by Telltale games, the game follows their episodic and narrative driven formula. The story is engaging and blends detective work with supernatural elements. The atmosphere is gritty, dark and tense, reinforcing the noir asthetic. Visually the game has a cel-shaded comic book art style. The voice acting is great, and greatly enhances the character development. There is a lot of dialogue and choice based options that will determine character relationships and story progression. Pacing issues occurred at certain parts of the game. Overall, this game has a unique and immersive story, and shouldn't be missed.
Usually i am not a fan of the "fairytales but they're like, edgy and real and do drugs" type of stories, but I really enjoy this series take on it (even moreso than the original Fable comics it is based on). I enjoy all the lil choices and scenerios, the characters are nice, and Bigby himself can be really charming, depending on how you play him. It's easy to really get sucked into the world.

Very awesome game to get real into, personally I felt very gripped and invested into the story like most TellTale games I have played. If your looking to kill an afternoon with a quick story based game this is defiantly a good pick especially with the New York setting mixed with fairy tale characters
Telltale Games' The Wolf Among Us is a gripping narrative adventure that expertly blends fairy tale lore with a gritty noir atmosphere. Based on the Fables comic series by Bill Willingham, the game reimagines iconic storybook characters as flawed, complex individuals navigating the challenges of life in the modern world.
The story places you in the role of Bigby Wolf, the sheriff of Fabletown, a hidden community of exiled fairy tale characters in New York City. As Bigby investigates a grisly murder, players unravel a dark and layered plot that dives deep into themes of morality, redemption, and the price of choices. The narrative is engaging from start to finish, with twists that will keep you guessing and emotional moments that linger long after the credits roll.
The game's characters are its beating heart. Bigby is a standout protagonist, balancing his feral nature as the Big Bad Wolf with his role as a protector. Supporting characters like Snow White, Bufkin, and Georgie Porgie are equally well-written, each contributing to the story's depth and emotional weight. Dialogue is sharp and dynamic, with Telltale's signature choice-based system allowing players to influence relationships and story outcomes in meaningful ways.
Visually, The Wolf Among Us is a triumph. The cel-shaded graphics mimic the aesthetic of the Fables comics, blending vibrant colors with dark, moody undertones. The environments-from the seedy streets of Fabletown to the opulent halls of the Woodlands-are richly detailed and immersive. The atmospheric soundtrack, with its synth-heavy score, perfectly complements the game's noir tone.
Gameplay mechanics focus on exploration, dialogue choices, and quick-time events. While simple, these mechanics serve the narrative well, keeping the focus squarely on storytelling. The weight of your decisions is palpable, with many choices leading to impactful consequences that encourage multiple playthroughs.
In conclusion, The Wolf Among Us is a stellar example of interactive storytelling at its finest. Its compelling plot, unforgettable characters, and striking visual design make it a standout in the adventure game genre. Whether you're a fan of the Fables comics or a newcomer to the series, this game offers a rich, emotional experience that's not to be missed
Rating: 9/10
Graphics are still fantastic! Gritty and fun, and appeases my inner comic book nerd. Cannot recommend enough. I'm still crossing my fingers the second game comes out soon.
This game and Telltale's TWD (Now under Skybound) are my top games from this publisher. These games give you actual choices which impact the story and when they say "the game is tailored by how you play" they mean it.
Pick this game up on sale and have fun! It's a wild ride
Telltale's magnum opus, and their only good modern title whose success hasn't yet been abused by the release of a half-baked sequel/s. Emphasis on YET because given the news surrounding Wolf Among Us 2 (or lack thereof), I'm very skeptical about leaving that previous statement as a definitive one. Not that poorly made sequels ever changed my opinion of the original, but I thought it was something noteworthy to mention.
Back to the topic at hand, this game is characterized by two very well executed elements: great voice acting and beautiful, vibrant visuals, stylized to appeal to the tastes of a mature audience. It features a cel-shaded artstyle, emblematic of virtually all of Telltale's titles released during the 2010s, but I think it's The Wolf Among Us that best utilizes the style. It does so by painting a world that is charming, with its diverse ensemble of colorful characters and locations, ranging from the fantastical to the caricatures of real life, while also revealing the gritty, nastier undertones of its criminal underworld. Let's also remember that the source material is a comic book, the medium from which cel shading was inspired.
A criticism I often see in reviews of Telltale games is the lack of gameplay, but I don't mind this so much. I can cede most, if not all gameplay as long as everything else being presented to me is enjoyable. The one area where this does bother me (this is more of a criticism of the writing) is in the lack of choices for dialogue. The big emphasis in the advertising of Telltale games is in the choices given to the player. "Choose your path." "Your decisions affect the story." To an extent, these statements may be true when looking at the minutiae of different dialogue responses you get with different choices, but that's about it. There is the occasional major decision, and these can affect the story in a noticeable way, but they're few and far between, easily recognizable, and the end result is more or less the same. What I would suggest, since this seems to be an issue with almost all of their games, is for them to incorporate more dialogue options for the player to choose from. Not all interactions need this, but the ones during moments of tension or confrontation shouldn't be limited to 100% passive, 100% aggressive, a weird mix of both that I'm positive almost nobody ever chooses, or silence. If my ending is predetermined, then let me feel that the responses or reactions I choose are mine.
A really captivating story. Coming from The Walking Dead games I'd say this is different enough in delivery to be considered a really worth playing experience, sure you'll gonna get a lot of reminders from TWD since its the same game engine, but in terms of story telling this one is a really good game.
I really liked the theme and the characters are memorable, don't wanna spoil the experience so bottom line is you should really play this game. Definitely the best Telltale game for me.
What a beautiful game, from start to end it feels more like a interactive novel rather than a game. every episode always has a surprise and the ending is just peak and perfect,
The Wolf Among Us is an absolutely captivating experience that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The story is deeply intriguing, full of twists and turns that never fail to surprise, ensuring you’re hooked at every moment. Telltale Games has truly outdone themselves with this title, blending an engaging narrative with rich character development. The dark, gritty atmosphere, set in the world of Fables, brings a unique and immersive touch to the adventure genre. Despite being released years ago, The Wolf Among Us remains a classic of its kind, showcasing Telltale's mastery in storytelling and decision-making gameplay. If you're a fan of narrative-driven games, this is a must-play that still holds up incredibly well.
Options don't really make a difference but the story is amazing!
a really good game. if you like detective like games with a reall solid story this is def a game you would enjoyy.. was not expecting to like it as much as i did. i probably wouldnt play it with kids in the same rood with ya tho lol..
Telltale did a great job reflecting the moods and the personalities of characters in this game. It is a melancholic masterpiece, overall has a depressing setting throughout the game. If you like mysteries and crime then this game is for you.
The Wolf among us, ya me habian recomendado este juego varias veces y es el sexto juego de Telltale que termíno, tiene la mejor historia por lejos, puedo reconocer a varios personajes de fabulas que tuvieron que en el juego, tuvieron que huir de sus respectivos mundos debido a una guerra que perdieron, fueron exiliados en New York y viven escondidos entre los "mundies" que son los humanos, Blancanieves, la bella y la bestia, el Lobo Feroz, etc, todos ellos tratan de sobrevivir en New York como pueden y se ven impactados por dificultades que podria tener cualquier Humano normal.
Quiero resaltar que las decisiones que tomamos, a diferencia de otros juegos de telltale, si importan e impactan en el episodio final, la historia tambien da el pie para una secuela de la cual no se sabe mucho todavia, solo que desde hace años que esta en desarrollo.
A cualquiera que quiera empezar por los juegos de Telltale, definitivamente recomendaria por lo menos que prueben este.
Tiene un bug que nunca arreglaron en el capitulo 6 del episodio 5, donde todas las opciones de los dialogos son reemplazados por "This choice is blank", para arreglarlo solo hay que reiniciar el juego, eso es lo unico negativo que encontre.
The hero of The Wolf Among Us is Bigby Wolf, the sheriff of the Fabletown neighborhood located somewhere in the outback of New York, in which fairy-tale characters try to live a normal human life. Like the world around us, Fabletown is in decline, people disillusioned with the corrupt bureaucratic machine turn to crime, and the sheriff has a hard time. Especially considering that thanks to his difficult character and dark past (how many atrocities the big gray wolf managed to commit in fairy tales!). There are many reasons for those whom he is supposed to protect as part of his duty to fear and hate Bigby. The game is dedicated to the investigation of the chain of murders that shocked Fabletown, and the player in this investigation is destined for the role of a passive observer: until the Wolf examines all the important places and exhausts the branches of dialogue, the narrative will not move further. Of the characters in The Wolf Among Us, only about half were taken from Fables, and it should be noted that the characters Telltale created not only fit seamlessly into the story dedicated to them, but are also quite charming in their own right. The developers decided not to limit themselves to old folklore and literary fairy tales and turned to urban legends. So, in the game you can meet the Jersey Devil and Bloody Mary. In essence, The Wolf Among Us is a standard detective story, which contains all the necessary genre clichés, but in strict dosage. There is a sleepless New York, flashing street lights, a bar with regulars and a nightclub with sad dancers, run by a cheeky pimp. There is corruption, visible but irresistible. There are piles of papers, packs of smoked cigarettes and the investigator himself, not without cynicism, tired, with constant stubble on his face. At the same time, the direct detective component in the game seems almost conventional: the Wolf is only involved in collecting evidence at first, and even then not too diligently, and interviewing witnesses comes down to skirmishes, in which residents often blame our main character for all the troubles. Yes, I can’t say that the game can be put on the same level as The Walkin Dead, but at the same time it is worthy of the attention of fans of the interactive cinema genre. The game has its shortcomings, but it is not without its advantages. I recommend playing it. I liked the game
Love this game, great storyline and very replayable.
