Beautiful, flashy, easy to learn-hard to master and the port runs like a charm! Another Arc System Works/French Bread homerun that should be in the library of 2D fighter players & pros!

TL;DR: I asked for a refund.

It doesn't matter how good this game was on the consoles, as a Spider-Verse writer it breaks my heart that in spite of everything good with this game, it is unplayable because of the controls. Delayed as hell, impossible to perfom correctly even simple tasks.

Like the beloved cartoon, this game completely has the charm of this DC Comics band of young heroes in a very story-driven adventure game.

It may not be as competent as Marvel's X-Men/Ultimate Alliance games in terms of performance and roster, but more than makes up for it with it with how engaging this superhero journey is!

Minimalist yet ingenious. Graphically gorgeous and very true to the Tomb Raider franchise. You get back every penny you paid to play this perfect-time-killer puzzle game.
My only complaint is about the controls. You can play it with the mouse perfectly, but its kind of annoying you have to emulate the swipe motion of a touch screen.

Excellent story. The experience is quite enticing, true to the spirit of A Song of Ice and Fire & Game of Thrones. What I don't like, and I have to point out, is that Telltale's engine is buggy, as per usual, and the controls aren't very good. I mean, it's not like this is a complex set of controls like in a Guilty Gear game!
In the end it still does the trick and fans will enjoy the experience.

However, it is not recommended for morons who do not know about storytelling and the illusion of choice ALL games have to work with. You can always go play Dark Souls instead of looking like a complete idiot by complaining about stuff you fail to understand.

This game is perfect for a professional comic book writer like me. Both in terms of fun, and narrative structure and how characterization and drama works.

They really should consider adding some other Fables stories and making a great franchise out of these interactive movies.

And for those who say it is not a challenging game. Well, you paid for a story, and if you knew how stories work, you can't just make an infinite game with infinite narrative lines to the choices you made. This is a game for people who want to experience a story. If you want a challenge, try fighting games or shooters.

Short storywise, but very challenging even though the mechanics are very simple. Ideal to kill a little time while on the computer.

It's quite beautiful graphicwise. A true pixel beauty. The only thing I hated about it is the soundtrack. I just mute it and listen to my CDs.

Brutally awesome!!! It's just as American as An apple pie, if apple pies were made out of bullets, classic High Concept action films, and FREEDOOOOM!

Quite a replayable action platformer that makes Contra look like ♥♥♥♥♥♥. With killer ambience and soundtrack and tough-as-nails game ambiance & difficulty.

This game lacks in very important departments of the Point & Click genre:

-Lackluster story with no real feeling of danger, a big no-no if you are selling yourself as a horror game.
-Confusing puzzles.
-Way short.
-Plus, visually it looks like a PS1 game. That doesn't bother me that much, but there are nineties games that look better.

I guess it would be an OK game if it was free-to-play, but it is not the case. Not worth the retail price.

I like the idea of using classic Mavel characters and deciding what kind of adventures to play. The attention to detail is eer present in this MMORPG, and as a comic book professional it make me feel right at home.
