Whilst many of the game’s watercolour-like backdrops are commendable, the actual characters and environments are anything but, looking like upscaled assets from a last generation game. When you’ve come to terms with Game of Thrones’ disappointing story, you’ll have to deal with its graphics and technical performance, which are beyond sub-par. Here however, you’re forced to side with the Forresters, and it doesn’t make for a fulfilling experience. In the show and books where you don’t have control of the unfolding events, Game of Thrones works because it’s up to you who you root for – none of the characters’ points of view are presented as truly just – and you just hope and pray that your favourite doesn’t die. In fact, for a series that is renowned for its conflicted characterisation, where most individuals are capable of following up a great act of kindness or decency with a heinous act, it’s disappointing that things here are expressed so plainly in black and white. Granted, I rooted for them over the despicable Whitehills, but that was easy when they were portrayed as the typical villains, with no redeeming features whatsoever. Throughout the game you take control of various members of the Forrester family, spread across the lands of Westeros, but not once did I ever really feel a connection with any them or care for their wellbeing. Whilst the story gets off to a good start, cleverly weaving its narrative into the events of the show (or book, whichever way you want to look at it), eventually it all just feels rather dissatisfying, and that’s Telltale’s Game of Thrones’ main problem for a story driven game it just fails to engage you enough to care. As owners of the valuable resource called Ironwood, the Forresters seek to protect their livelihood by any means necessary, but by the end of the series the price will assuredly be high.

Unfortunately, after playing all six episodes of the first season (yes, a second one has been announced), it’s with much regret that I have to say that it’s all a bit of a disappointment really.īeginning during the events of the Red Wedding, Telltale’s Game of Thrones follows the Forrester family and their struggles with both the bastard Ramsay Snow and the Whitehill family.

Let’s face it, just what kind of fan of the show wouldn’t want to exchange terse words with Cersei or take control of a battle against a horde of Whitewalkers? It just had to be good. Promising a rich story that sat alongside the show, complete with shocking events and a few familiar faces, fans like myself were eager to see if Telltale could deliver on their promise. It wasn’t surprising then, what with the hugely successful episodic The Walking Dead game under their belt, that Telltale Games announced they were working on a similar experience for fans of Game of Thrones. Even Borderlands 2 has a sly nod with its Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon’s Keep DLC, which includes a mission called Winter is a Bloody Business where you can ultimately slap a rather familiar looking Prince “Jeffrey” until your heart is content.

In fact, it has grown so big that it’s cemented a position for itself in our popular culture, with such TV shows as How I Met Your Mother and the little known UK comedy Catastrophe referencing the show, mainly in regards to the universally hated snot-stain that was Joffrey.
