'Access Denied' isn’t my favorite chapter, but at this point, TellTale has a firm grip on the series. I can also appreciate the game’s return to a focus on the group’s relationships, even if it probably won’t change what happens in the upcoming finale.

PlayStation 4 Review: ‘Batman: The Telltale Series – Episode 1: Realm of Shadows’
TellTale's 'Batman' stumbles when the action gets going, which makes pulling off a superhero game awfully difficult, but it's their storytelling that keeps fans coming back. Despite being a somewhat slow burn, Episode 1: Realm of Shadows offers a compelling narrative, so far.

On its own, and clocking in at under an hour, Assembly Required is easily the weakest offering from the long-time adventure game maker. Fortunately, TellTale's 'Minecraft: Story Mode' is clearly marketed towards a younger audience, and fans of the original game, who are a lot more likely to forgive all of the game's shortcomings.

if the same level of quality is maintained in future episodes, "King's Quest" is going to prove to be an absolute must-have game. This first episode is nothing short of spectacular.

After 'Episode Two: Out of Time,' Dontnod's 'Life is Strange' is the best episodic adventure game out there. With more character depth, and more gameplay, along with a technically superior game engine, there's really no debate.
