Jed Pressgrove wrote: Telltale Games cartwheels into facile cynicism with its riff on the Game of Thrones television series. Rather than rise above mind-numbing sadism, the game sticks to the show's pop culture-debasing premise: morbidly sentimentalizing the corruption that leads noble people toward doom. This violent story isn't a political critique or allusion to history so much as a dreaded affirmation of “hard reality,” encouraging the audience to become outraged at the predestined butchery of beloved characters, as when the Red Wedding took viewers by storm in the show's third season.
Can't say I'm surprised.
