Laura Sorkin, and InGen mercenary Billy Yoder. ![]() You step into the shoes a few different groups during the original disaster of the park, with your primary characters being Gerry Harding, father of The Lost World: Jurassic Park protagonist Sarah Harding, scientist Dr. Jurassic Park: The Game was a licensed project with Universal Studios, taking place during and a short time after the plot of the first film. The Premise: We're kicking off the list with the worst of the Telltale titles, but also the one that paved the way for everything that came after. Without further ado, let's kick this list off. In addition, The Walking Dead: New Frontier isn't included because the series isn't done yet. Only the ones in the current Telltale house style, meaning games like Puzzle Agent, Back to the Future, and Tales of Monkey Island aren't included on this list. Given that and my superior taste, I feel it's time to rank every one of the Telltale adventure games. I have had the pleasure (and the pain) of having played every single one Telltale Series title. Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series, launching next week on April 18, marks the tenth game done in the Telltale house style since Jurassic Park's release. Like the other "TT Games", Telltale has stumbled onto a solid and malleable formula that can be used for a wide variety of properties. Telltale has done so well with the format that it's even been picked up by other studios, notably the successful release of Life is Strange from Dontnod Entertainment. The "Telltale Series" is built on a format that resembles the Japanese visual novel, given a Western spin and an episodic release schedule. The studio began making games in the style of classic Lucasarts adventures, but in 2011 it began a transition towards something else. Telltale Games has built a small stronghold in one corner of the gaming industry, largely on the back of one style of game.

Some Telltale games in the past have been plagued by release date issues (looking at you, Wolf Among Us), but so far this one seems to be right on schedule. And of course, since the game is set in the Game of Thrones universe, you might find one or two of your favorite characters do not make it through the first episode.įans of the show will be delighted to hear excellent voice performances from all the key cast: Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister, Kit Harrington as Jon Snow, Natalie Dormer as Margaery Tyrell, Iwan Rheon as Ramsay Snow, and Lena Headley as Cersei Lannister, among other (the latter two are just as terrifying to interact with as you would imagine). All of these characters have rich storylines and their decisions effect one another greatly. While your first character is eventually sent to The Wall, you also play as the young Lord Forrester (who inherits his seat after his father dies in the initial ambush), a daughter of the Forrester house who is handmaiden to Margaery Tyrell in King’s Landing, and an exiled son of the Forrester house working as a sellsword across the Narrow Sea (in the second episode). Much like the books and TV show, the game follows several different storylines. As a squire for Lord Forrester, you must fight off the ambush laid by the Freys, and choose who to save and who to leave behind. The story opens at The Twins outside The Red Wedding as the first strains of “The Rains of Castamere” float down out of the castle windows (apologies for any hysterical weeping that sentence may have caused just now). This gives a perfect blank slate which the game’s writers work beautifully. If you are familiar with the books, you may recognize the name, as they are given brief mention a couple of times, but their stories are not really explored. The game follows several members of the Forrester family the lords of Ironrath and bannermen to the Starks. Telltale Games has hit another home run with its adaptation of “Game of Thrones.” An rich expansion of the Game of Thrones universe in the unique Telltale style. ![]()
