That bit in the description about your every decision potentially having "enormous consequences" is objectively false, which is apparently not illegal to lie about when selling a game. This is Telltale we're talking about; these games are more like bastardized visual novels that trade in multiple routes and real story consequences for animation, QTEs, and very minor decisions that will, at most, alter some flavor text.
That sounds harsh, but I don't mean it in a particularly negative way. This is actually a pretty good use of the source material in my opinion, and for all my criticisms of Telltale over the years, I can honestly say I think they have had some solid writers. The story fits in the universe quite well, but you will notice a few lapses here and there; sometimes you're railroaded into being an idiot and not connecting the dots despite interacting with clear evidence at the scene, sometimes the response you get to a conversation choice is illogical or flows poorly, and still others just don't fit within the universe itself (For example,how in the world does Bigby get away scot-free with going full Werewolf, then sprinting through the streets, jumping on cars, and scaring a family in their apartment?).
If you're willing to drop $15 for what is essentially an interactive comic, you ought to be able to get some enjoyment out of this, even if it is propped up by the Fables IP itself.
Replaying this again in the lord's year of 2024 and still no other choice game even comes close. The plot, the art style, the twist? 5 stars.
Please more choice based games. please.
I went into TWAU with HIGH expectations after hearing about it for so long, and I have to say- it delivered. From the moment I started playing, I was hooked on the dark, gritty atmosphere and gripping story. It really feels like a comic brought to life, and I found myself examining every scene and hunting for all the little details, just in case I missed something.
Bigby is such a great protagonist. I loved playing as him and deciding what kind of person he is through the choices. The game constantly makes you question your decisions and keeps you on edge, making it almost impossible not to feel completely invested in the characters and the world.
The art style is stunning, and the tension, mystery and cliffhangers throughout the story are incredible. That said, I have to admit the ending left me a bit... Disappointed? But that’s just my personal opinion, and it doesn’t take away from how amazing the overall experience was.
This is a game that really sticks with you. I’ll definitely replay it someday to pick all the choices I didn’t the first time. If you haven’t played it yet, man what are you waiting for just try it.
ive only done one playthrough and i absolutely love this game, i also love the telltale TWD games but it feels like the decisions in this game means more than in TWD i decided to be an absolute menace so everyone feared me and i absolutely loved the stuff i did and i really and i mean REALLY recomend this
The Wolf Among Us is a fine example as to the incredibly rich, almost pulsating action that can run through a story that Telltale creates. Rarely have I played a game that seems to take into account what you do as much as TWAU. Every choice has consequences, some of which stay with you for the entire game, affecting other character's perceptions of you as well as the options you can exercise. TWAU is more than a story, it is an experience that requires your attention, and your critical thinking. Sometimes you have to make certain sacrifices, or compromises in order to get what you want. Sometimes what you want is not the same as what everyone else does. You can choose what kind of Wolf you'd like to be, as well as how others react to important decisions. In the end, TWAU is a masterpiece that is as close to 'The Perfect Game' as can be. Play it for yourself, and find out.
Magnificient story game, or maybe it is not even a game, it feels more like a interactive novel, but anyway it is very good and if you like story games with themes of fantasy or mystery solving, this might just be the game for you.
10+ y/o game btw … and it’s better than some games we have now
only thing better would be twau 2, but that’ll probably be “when the rivers turn course and the sky bleeds fuckin gypsies.”
If i say anything ill be spoiling the story. Just know its best to go into this game blind and play. I buy the game, and i was 9 when this game came out. So i never played it till now. I'v herd about it, but never bothered to watch videos at the time. But i got the game and wanted to play it. And it was worth the 15$ and i beg you to buy it at full price. It is one of the best game i'v ever played.
I almost dont want to get any more games like this because i think ill be let down by the other games in this genre. If you want to get all the endings its about 20 hours of game play, i did the neutral ending for my first play through. And i think im going to do the other endings as well.
Go play it good, and any PC can run. You can even play it on the steam deck.
100% Achievement Review: A review based on my experience completing all the (available) achievements.
Title: The Wolf Among Us
Summary: Detective Story Game
Personal notes: This is one of my favourite Telltale games. Has a very unique take on a mixture of classic tales such as Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, and Red Riding Hood. Only a few achievements are missable with entries varying in chapters but it is super easy to replay the other sequences quickly. Supposedly a sequel is set to release and I'm looking forward to playing that as well. The Wolf Is What?
Time it took to complete: 9hrs
Most difficult achievement(s):
- ----- Librarians (Unlocked all Book of Fables entries in Episode 1,2,3,4,5)
Difficulty rating: 1/10
Overall rating: 7/10
With the unique setting and a rich and well thought of story it is a easy recommendation!
I first fell in love with Telltale games with their game for Back to the Future. This game was on my radar for a while but I misunderstood what it was. I originally thought it was a werewolf game. While that is, somewhat true, it's more about the characters, being different fable/fairytale/etc. characters and the story. As soon as I started playing I fell in love with the visual style, characters and storytelling. It's dark and somber without trying too hard and I really found my invested in the story, the characters, their dilemmas, emotions and everything about them. It made me wish I hadn't put off this game for so long. It's a fantastic game if you are into storytelling and making choices. I highly recommend it.
I first played through this almost a decade ago, and coming back to it all these years later I still think it's the best work Telltale ever produced and maybe the best example of this kind of "choices matter" narrative driven game. The mystery is interesting, but it's the characters and writing that make this game so special, and while certain events will transpire regardless of what you do, there is a real sense that your decisions are influencing things in ways both subtle and obvious. The art style holds up very well (even if the animation wasn't the best even in 2013), and the game just has this fantastic dark vibe that's faithful to the material it's based on. Great stuff!
I love this game, I've had it on PC and I believe mobile and I have replayed it on the PC quite a few times. I'm still waiting for TWAU2 and I can't wait to see there that story takes us!
Fantastic Story, Fantastic Characters. I Played it all in one sitting, as I was hooked from the start. The Wolf Among Us Truly is Telltale's Magnum Opus. Still holding out hope for a sequel.
A very good game. Great visuals. Great pacing. It keeps you hooked throughout the gameplay, as you want to know what actually happened. Really enjoyed my playthrough.
pretty fun story and a great art style
fun interesting way to tell a story, well paced
Absolute masterpiece. I have played first two games of TWD from TellTale so I was a bit sceptical regarding the storyline but holy cow is this awesome. Wont spoil anything but the story is top notch, characters are well written and there are multiple endings. Replayable. 8/10
Fantastic atmosphere, leaves an impression on you, can't go wrong with this style of content, like The Walking Dead and this one, they are fun, rewarding, memorable and worth every penny and more.
This game is amazing with a great story and setting. I loved the ending, The villain was banking on people not giving a shit about the vulnerable and weak but through the story you can prove him wrong and bring hope to a place with very little. You can be the true hero that no one thinks you can be or just another powerful person doing whatever they want. Fable Town lost all their hope and heroes, but in the most unlikely places a hero is forged and changes his own destiny as the big bad wolf.
The Wolf Among Us is a captivating game that hooks you from the very start with its intriguing storyline. The plot unfolds beautifully, keeping you engaged at every step. The background music enhances the atmosphere, immersing you deeply into the game's unique and fascinating world. Overall, it's an incredibly compelling experience.
This is a premier TellTale game. It doesn't retread a well-worn IP like the other games, and introduces you to some new, lovable characters. The Fairy Tale Noir genre is relatively niche enough that you won't immediately get tired of the setting, and I did feel like many of my choices mattered (You can't say that about all of these games).
The Wolf Among Us is a visually stunning game with an incredible atmosphere and a compelling story. The characters are equally impressive, each brimming with personality and tied to their own unique fairytale lore.
This is a must-play for anyone who loves narrative-driven games, much like Telltale’s The Walking Dead series!
This is my first experience with games of the interactive cinema genre. I was very surprised and interested by it, very nice comic style, great plot, interesting characters, the best 8 hours of my life. I want part 2 of this game, I will be very much looking forward to it. I am very sad that they did not show the relationship between Bigby and Snow, I was hoping that they would have a romantic line, I hope that this will take place in part 2. Great game, I recommend it!!!
I watched a walk through of this game close to a decade ago, and I've thought about it every once in a while since then. When it went on sale, I decided to finally buy the game now that I had a computer powerful enough to play it. I only remembered specific reveals in the game's plot, but remember what events they were tied to. But after easing my way in, I found that it didn't detract from my experience very much. When each of those moments did happen in the game, it was a fun moment of clarity to experience it all over again in the driver's seat this time around.
I am happy to report that The Wolf Among Us is still as fresh to me when as it was all those years ago! This time around, I had to stop myself from the temptation of looking up all the possible outcomes to the story. I wanted to let myself enjoy the game without worrying about trying to earn all the achievements this time around. I'm so glad that I did because I loved the game so much more than I thought I would.
If you can get this game on a sale, do it. If you don't you're missing out.
Goated and worth while game, cool characters, good story with a better villain.
The big ((bad)) detective and wolf sheriff Bigby, in his life in Fabletown, where fairy tales and happy endings are more unusual and drastic than expected, tries to solve various incidents for the not so well-being of its citizens. In this journey he will find himself in a plot of intrigue that will bring risks to all the citizens of Fabletown.
Based on the Fable comic book saga, The Wolf Among Us is a narrative story involving choices that can affect the characters' situations. Teltalle is known for involving this practicality of consequences in actions and yet many times you see that no matter how hard you try to make the right choices, the fate of certain characters keeps going in the same direction as it was programmed (technically choices are not so relevant after all...).
With 5 episodes, it's a complementary and well-developed plot that will leave you shaking in your hands over whether you want ((or not)) the good outcome of those around you. Still, as said, certain results permeate into a single direction regardless of choices, making an elementary bubble without a metamorphosis to the outside.
Feels just like a choose your own adventure book. I like that the battles are easy to finish and that it doesn't take away from the story. I like the multiple dialogue choices but wish I had longer to chose them when in controller mode. I had longer on the keyboard mode but the controller is easier to use for me. Whimsical and fun game so far. I hope there are more games like this one. If you like a difficult puzzle game this is the opposite of that.
This is a game I've been putting off from playing but knew it was a masterpiece from what people have said before. First chapter in, and its a masterclass of writing and story telling. While the game play is non existent, to an extent, it more than makes up for it with the short moments where we can interact with this unique world and learn more about how it functions. Its really cool seeing these fairy tale characters, whom we are more than well aware of, integrate into the real world and come up with ways to show how they struggle to live in it. So far, the only thing I can say that throws me off is the dialogue options you choose from transitioning into the cutscenes. But the voice acting and dialogue more than makes up for it. 10/10 story and game.
For a game that came out in 2013 it holds up extremely well! Using the Fables comic style for the game itself gives it a timeless and stylized look that doesn't feel outdated even now. Some of the animations are a little janky, but nothing that completely takes me out of the immersion. As with most TellTale games, it's mostly an illusion of choice type gameplay, but the changing interactions with characters does make your choices feel significant in that regard. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who likes mystery games, but not to people that expect a ton of freedom.
I had a lot of fun playing this game! As someone who has enjoyed The Walking Dead series by Telltale, I found this game to offer a different but equally enjoyable experience. The storytelling and gameplay had their unique charm, making it a standout title on its own. Even after all these years since its release, it still holds up remarkably well, proving that a well-crafted story can rival even the most modern narrative-driven games today.
This movie-game is magnificent. The story is surprisingly interesting to follow, the atmosphere is magical, the visuals are great. In one word, a must-have.
incredible game. on par with the walking dead with story and characters, but the gameplay in the wolf among us is way better and its not even an argument. incredible game
A legitimately enthralling story, with a lot of excitement sprinkled in throughout its episodic format.
The Wolf Among Us is one of the better "interactive movie-games" of which I've played. It didn't blow me away or anything, but I really did enjoy my time with it.
The plot feels very much like an experimental HBO or AMC drama show. Not typically my thing, but I suppose this was an exception.
While it felt a little side-tracked at the end of Episode 3 and start of Episode 4, it quickly regained its composure. And otherwise the pacing was nicely refined.
I found the world to be really fascinating and cool in terms of its creativity, with a lot of layered lore and contextual history. It can definitely be felt that it's based on a long-running comic-series.
And most characters were neatly interesting. They're all definitely very expressive, and I enjoyed that.
Do keep in mind that this is a Telltale game, so occasionally the options you choose doesn't aptly translate to the outcome of what the character actually says.
It's to be expected, but not overlooked.
It does have a rather serious flaw, though. During the ending I encountered a glitch that pretty much broke my entire game and halted all progress. Kinda ruined the climatic moment.
Only option was to restart the whole game. Bummer. Luckily, it picked up exactly where I left off.
Yet the rest of my experience was entirely without issue.
[table][th]▶ MY RATING:[/th][th] ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ [/th][th]10 / 10[/th][/table]
My absolute favourite Telltale game. Can't wait for The Wolf Among Us 2!
The Wolf Among Us is nothing short of incredible. From the moment I started playing, I was hooked and couldn’t put it down. The gripping storyline, immersive atmosphere, and stunning art style make it a standout experience that surpasses most games in its genre.
What truly sets The Wolf Among Us apart is its masterful blend of dark noir storytelling with a unique twist on fairy tale characters. Playing as Bigby Wolf, the gruff and complex sheriff of Fabletown, felt both empowering and emotionally engaging. Every decision I made carried weight, and the consequences kept me on the edge of my seat.
As much as I loved The Walking Dead, this game took my admiration for Telltale to a whole new level. The pacing, mystery, and sheer unpredictability of The Wolf Among Us make it, in my opinion, even better. It’s not just a game; it’s an unforgettable journey through a dark, stylish, and intriguing world.
If you haven’t played The Wolf Among Us yet, you’re missing out on one of the finest narrative-driven games ever made. It’s a masterpiece that deserves every bit of its acclaim.
Overall Rating 11/10
Great story about murders that aren´t what they seem... 8-10
I really love the creativity and aesthetic of this whole game. And the story is fire? Stop playin' wit me bruh!
9/10
very fun, very enthralling. Good characters.
I didn’t know what to expect when I started playing but DEFINITELY NOT THAT!
Okay wow…
Let’s just say if you’re a fan of “Once Upon a Time” show then you’re in for one hell of a ride! You’re absolutely going to love this!
A Gritty Masterpiece of Mystery and Storytelling
The Wolf Among Us is a brilliant fusion of noir detective storytelling and a dark, modernized take on classic fairy tales. Telltale Games truly shines with this episodic adventure, delivering a gripping narrative, complex characters, and moral dilemmas that keep you on the edge of your seat.
Story:
Set in Fabletown, a secret community of fairy tale characters hiding among humans, you play as Bigby Wolf, the reformed Big Bad Wolf now acting as the sheriff. The murder mystery you unravel is layered with tension, secrets, and shocking twists, making it nearly impossible to stop playing once you start.
Gameplay:
While it’s primarily a story-driven game with point-and-click mechanics, the choices you make carry real weight, altering the way the story unfolds. The quick-time events during action scenes are engaging and never feel out of place.
Atmosphere and Design:
The gritty, neon-soaked art style combined with a hauntingly atmospheric soundtrack creates a world that’s both immersive and uniquely captivating. It perfectly matches the dark, adult themes explored in the story.
Characters:
Every character, from Snow White to Toad, feels deeply fleshed out and layered. The moral gray areas make them feel human (or as human as fairy tale creatures can get). Bigby himself is a standout protagonist—torn between his violent past and his desire for redemption.
Why It’s Fascinating:
What makes The Wolf Among Us so special is how it captures the essence of storytelling in gaming. The game draws you into its world, forces you to make tough decisions, and leaves you pondering the consequences long after the credits roll.
Whether you’re a fan of narrative-driven games, noir mysteries, or just love a good story, The Wolf Among Us is a must-play. It’s not just a game; it’s an experience.
9/10 - A timeless classic.
Good story. Has some issues (for example the timed reaction is annoying if you aren't reading fast, like for non native English speakers), but overall enjoyable
I'm a HUGE Telltale fan; from TWD to this gem. This game merges cutesy sweet fairy tales and gruesome murder mysteries into one AMAZING story that stars Bigby, aka Big Bad Wolf, as a scruffy bad a♡♡ sheriff, and Snow White as the assistant to mayor Ichabod Crane. There are an array of different characters to meet from all sorts of tales, like there's Beauty and Beast (Beauty and the Beast), Nerissa (Little Mermaid), Vivian (The Green Ribbon) ((yes, that one of the girl with the ribbon on her neck)), and there are characters from legend like Bloody Mary and Jersey Devil.
Fabletown has a murderer on the loose, and it's Bigby's job as sheriff to be on the case. You get to look around for clues, interview other Fables for info, sniff around strip joints and pawn shops for any leads, and make some hard choices. And your choices MATTER and can alter the story in big ways. Or should I say..."Bigby" ways...I'm sorry.
There are some intense things that could be upsetting if you're going into this thinking it's lighthearted and fun stuff. You have to be prepared for some really dark events spread throughout.
Overall, I can't recommend this game enough if this theme and game style interest you. I have come back to it on several occasions over the years and try to choose different things each time and mix it up to see what all I can get to happen.
Definitely PLAY IT!
Now I continue to impatiently wait for the launching of TWAU 2!
heartbreaking: the most comically evil man in the world created the hottest video game character ever
Great game.
For the people that didnt do it, in certain scenes i wanted to say they didnt do it but I didnt have the option. so annoying.
I didnt have the option to do what i really wanted to do in some important scenes, however they did a good job with most options.
I was waiting for him to put the gun down so i could finish him.
The Wolf Among Us – A Masterpiece in Storytelling
The Wolf Among Us stands out as a brilliant example of interactive storytelling, set in a dark, gritty world that pulls players in from the very first moment. Here’s what makes this game exceptional:
• Immersive Noir Atmosphere
The game’s moody, comic-book style graphics and haunting soundtrack perfectly capture a gritty, noir-like feel, making Fabletown feel alive and deeply engaging.
• Complex, Multi-Layered Characters
Each character is unique and memorable, especially Bigby Wolf, whose struggle between his violent instincts and moral decisions makes him one of the most compelling protagonists in gaming.
• Choice-Driven Storytelling
Every decision matters, and choices have real consequences that affect both story direction and character relationships, adding depth to each interaction.
• Engaging, Tense Plot
With mysteries and plot twists at every turn, the story is gripping from start to finish, drawing players into a world where fairy-tale creatures hide dark secrets.
• Emotional Impact
This is more than just a game; it’s an emotional experience that explores themes of redemption, trust, and survival.
In short, The Wolf Among Us isn’t just a game—it’s an unforgettable journey that masterfully combines atmosphere, character, and choice, making it a must-play for any fan of narrative-driven experiences.
Overall an excellent game. Only falls short on a good or positive playthrough, since the characters around you seem to default to neutral negative, at times they can react like youve committed more evil than you have
-Really good game even now in 2024, with brilliant, engaging story to follow but still had a lot of blankness especially at the ending (Ep 4 and 5)
-Love the concept which fairy tale and detective combine into one game
-Place in the game need to be more unique or memorable so
-The first episode need to explain more about what happen in the game..i really take time to understand the game flow
-You need to warn player about the nude content at the store page or loading screen (Spoiler: Ep 2)
7/10
Yes this game is absolutely fire couldn't stop, story is amazing and unforgettable characters can't wait for part 2
Historia exelente, te manteine de puntitas siempre, lleno de vida sobre todo cuando hablas con otras fabulas. incluso cuando es algo que deinitivamente no dirias se siente del todo real la convesacion. controles son pupu
I really hate these QTE type of games, and I will probably avoid them in the future. That said, I'm glad that I got to play through this story before abandoning this genre. The story was really engaging and and I'd recommend it to people who like these types of games.
