One of the greatest games created by TellTale.

Based off of the comic series of the same name, The Walking Dead places you in the shoes of Lee Everett: a convicted criminal who must now survive in a zombie apocalypse. While trying to survive he runs into other survivors, most notably a little girl named Clementine. It's up to Lee to protect Clementine from both the undead and the living.

With the exception of a few minor characters who only appear in episode 1, The Walking Dead is not connected to the main plot of the comics, so even if you haven't read the comics or watched the show you can still fully understand this game.

The game is a point and click adventure that focuses more on the struggles of surviving/solving puzzles and less on mindlessly murdering hundreds of zombies (though there still are some action sequences). This will probably scare away most buyers, but the people who can get past this will find themselves enjoying one of the most emotional games available on Steam (to those that DO want a mindless Walking Dead shooter, you can purchase the mediocre Walking Dead: Survival Instinct for double the price of this great game).

Along the course of the game you'll be able to make certain choices that may affect who lives/dies or how others treat you. Although these choices don't really lead to any major "alternate paths", they are enough to making yourself feel responsible for every choice you make. You may be tempted to redo your playthrough so you can redo one choice you made, but it's honestly better to just keep going since it'll make your current playthrough much more meaningful.

Every survivor in the game is fleshed out and has something that makes them unique. Whenever a main character dies you will almost always have a rush of emotions - whether it be anger or sadness. Unlike most zombie games you will actually care about the main characters and how things turn out for them. Overall, there are some really amazing moments in this game that may leave your eyes running.

I wish I could go into detail about how great each episode is, but I don't want to spoil them. Even if you aren't a fan of The Walking Dead comics - or zombie culture in general - you will absolutely love this game.
