“Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series” was difficult to review because I both love and hate it at the same time. I disliked most of the characters I like from the show because of how they treated the character in the game that I controlled. Because choices and actions do not directly affect the characters in the show, the scenes they are involved with can sometimes feel like filler or irrelevant. I enjoyed seeing characters from the show initially, but soon realized these characters are purely there for fan service and don’t really add anything to your story. The actual actors reprise their roles for each character, which look just like their real-life counterparts. The player must restore the house using the members of the family in different parts of the world.Ĭharacters from the show such as Tyrion Lannister, Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow also make appearances in this side story which doesn’t affect the show in any way. One of the playable characters is the handmaiden of Margaery Tyrell, so there is plenty of interaction with them. Players control different members of the noble Forrester family after a great tragedy afflicts them.
TELLTALE GAMES GAME OF THRONES CHARACTERS TV
The storyline, set in the “Game of Thrones” universe, takes place at the end of TV show’s third season. The gameplay is simple, but fits within Telltale Games’ style because these games are played for storytelling. It can be freeing but does not add much to the experience. Occasionally, players are able to walk around an area and interact with people or the environment. Dialogue options are the bulk of gameplay, and the story is affected or altered depending on the player’s decisions.
These can be quick time events or dialogue chosen during conversations. Gameplay is mostly on-screen popups that indicate different interactions. Telltale games do not play like standard video games, but rather like an interactive book.
