A hefty experiences that bounces all over the place, but is still strong at its core
Playing the game again from the first-person perspective is a blast. It's also become my perspective of choice for Grand Theft Auto Online
An intriguing and suspenseful first look into the Forresters' lives that hits all of the tones that Telltale and George R. R. Martin are known for
One of those experiences that I would call addictive in that "just one more attempt" way
