Walking Dead: The Game for iPhone Review
Walking Dead: The Game for iPhone is an adventure horror five-part episodic game series set in the same universe as Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic books featuring Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes. The dialogues between your character and the survivors form the basis of unique experience that the game provides. Depending on how you choose to answer the questions, you can make yourself a lier or a charismatic leader in the eyes of other characters. The basic package of the game can be downloaded for free.
Features
Centered on a truck stop on a Georgia highway, this special episode for Season 1 of The Walking Dead tells five linked stories of survival. The game explores some very dark psychological places, revealing that the undead are not the only thing to be afraid of when society crumbles. The game has four more episodes plus a special one that you got to buy via in-app purchase. In this brand new story, you are Lee Everett, a man given a second chance at life in a world devastated by the undead. With corpses returning to life and survivors stopping at nothing to maintain their own safety, protecting an orphaned girl named Clementine may offer him redemption in a world gone to hell. In the game, every action or decision you make can change the story line. This tailored experience means that your story could be very different to that of someone else.
The visual style is beautiful. The characters look like a cross between comic-book illustrations or paintings and photo-realistic human actors. The soundtrack is also impressive. It gives you a sense of dread or sadness every time you stop and take a look around the environment you’re in. Every voice actor sounds professional as well. As you end the first episode, you’ll be given a preview of the second based on who you’d allowed to live or die. Walking Dead: The Game requires iOS 6.0 or later.
Conclusion
Walking Dead: The Game for iPhone is an adventure horror series spanning across five episodes, plus special episode ‘400 Days’. The game play involves meaningful decision-making, exploration, problem-solving and a constant fight for survival in a world overrun by the undead. Your decisions change the storyline. So no two players go through the same storyline ever. The graphics is beautiful, while the soundtrack give a realistic feel to the game environment. We also found the game to be stable enough. Check it out if you like horror adventure games with a twist.
