Unlike many graphic adventure games, The Walking Dead does not emphasize puzzle solving, but instead focuses on story and character development. Some characters from the original comic book series also make in-game appearances. Robert Kirkman, the original creator of the comic book series, provided oversight for the game's story to ensure it corresponded to the tone of the comic, but allowed Telltale to handle the bulk of the developmental work and story specifics. Most of the characters are original to this game, which centers on the university professor and convicted criminal Lee Everett who becomes a protective figure to a young girl named Clementine and attempts to help her find her parents. The game takes place in the same fictional world as the comic, with events occurring shortly after the onset of the zombie apocalypse in the state Georgia. It is available for Android, iOS, Kindle Fire HDX, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Ouya, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and Nintendo Switch. Based on the comic book series of the same name, the game consists of five episodes, released between April and November 2012. The game is the first of The Walking Dead video game series published by Telltale. There was no hint of the show getting bogged down with CGI.The Walking Dead is an episodic adventure video game developed and published by Telltale Games.

The visuals were amazing, especially the desolate Atlanta and, of course, the zombies themselves. by embracing the one thing zombie movies rarely have enough time to do: develop multi-faceted characters you really care for, to feel genuine distress when some inevitably get bitten. Hopefully The Walking Dead will surprise us. ‘Days Gone Bye’ is an artful, arresting work from Frank Darabont as he paints The Walking Dead, immediately, in the vein of a neo-Western as much as a dystopian horror.

There's something about the combination of zombies and apocalyptic times that brings out the worst in human beings, which is where the true horror - and good drama - lies. I'll tell you up front that the debut episode-written and directed by Darabont-definitely makes me think AMC, a network that's produced high-quality original shows almost without exception, is onto another winner. I really liked Frank Darabont's pilot for The Walking Dead.
