Review

This spin-off from the Telltale The Walking Dead franchise follows Michonne (Samira Wiley), a pivotal character from the comics and the show. Michonne navigates the harsh environment of post-apocalyptic US while dealing with her own traumatic past.

The story is decent but maybe because I have very little knowledge of the comics and the show, the significance of Michonne’s character didn’t contribute much to the game for me. Without her character’s significance, the plot becomes a tad repetitive. I did like how the game had some action sequences and tough decisions. The game is also much shorter than the other games of the franchise, with only three episodes instead of five.

Conclusion

Kind of uninspiring unless you're a big fan of the comics.

Overall rating: 7.3
