Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Amazing game, great for gamers of any skill level
The Wolf Among us is TellTale's best game so far in my opinion I loved both of The Walking Dead games but I liked The Wolf Among us even more. If you've played any of TellTale's other games before such as The Walking Dead or Tales from the Borderlands than you'll already be familiar with the play style. The game takes fictional characters from the fables you heard as a child such as the Big Bad Wolf and Beauty and the Beast and brings them all together as real people living hidden in the real world in a town called Fabletown. It might seem kind of corny but TellTale actually did an amazing job of turning these childhood stories into characters with real lives and real life problems, although it involves fictitious children's characters the game is very violent and graphic and is far from being a childrens game. You play the game as a character named Bigby (the big bad wolf). Although his shady past is acknowledged in the game, Bigby has turned his life around and is now the Sheriff in Fabletown and its his job to keep the other "fables" in check. As Bigby you work to solve a major crime that occurred among the fables and the decisions you make greatly impact the way that the story unfolds. Your choices determine whether people like you or hate you and whether or not they will help you with your investigation and the decisions you make even impact whether characters live or die. You'll be hooked after about ten minutes of playing and the game will keep you on the edge of your seat guessing what will happen next. If you've played and enjoyed The Walking Dead than you will definitely enjoy The Wolf Among us- the playstyle is very similar and the story is just as exciting.

a reason to use a psvita
this game is very compelling in a sense that you get involved in this city and want to know more about the criminal behavior behind thanks to some great voice acting and unique game play on the vita it's a great game to buy for it. the only issue i have is that there is some noticeable frame rate drops during action scenes when you have to react but it isn't enough to not buy it on the vita.

Telltale games does it again.
Although the Vita translation suffers from long load times, its still a really good translation from its console counterparts. The choices may largely be insignificant to the direction of the story, but the artwork and dialogue are strong. The ending is satisfying, although the episodes individually are a little short. Ultimately, a good addition to anyones Vita collection.
