Telltale Games

Now I've moved on a bit from playing the episode, I think what really made me enjoy this was the sudden changes and surprises! I didnt know who stole Max's brain until I saw it before my own eyes and I loved the return of Papierwaite.

The reason people remember those puzzles is because they were the exception in the games.

Also, I give you 'rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle' and 'I can't use the skeleton arm with that'.

The ONLY thing I didn't like was the female voice with the over-the-top accent. & why a (fake?) British accent for an Egyptian? Why a girl's voice for a boy king?

I loved dicking around with the corndog tower & always enjoy an angry Sam. I also loved the neighborhood renovation; made me wish I could roll around in the sand. There is no sand where I live, just mud & rocky shorelines.

I didn't think Sammunmak's voice sounded too female. I didn't even realise it was Nicki Rapp until I saw the credits. Lots of boy children in animations are voiced by women, most notable probably is Bart Simpson. Probably because the voice hasn't broke yet so unless you actually hire a child actor you have to go with that direction.

The British accent works for me, as you usually hear that kind of thing as a stereotypical "royal" voice. For me, it wouldn't sound convincing with an American accent and I sure wouldn't recognize what an ancient Egyptian accent is supposed to sound like!

Do you think that each episode's use of a certain toy of power and style of gameplay are "training" for the finale?

Imagine the final episode, with all powers at the same time, and all game mechanics like interrogation, out-of-sequence gameplay, etc.

Would be nice, though it's not really likely

I have to agree with TS. The best thing is the whole season is a complete story. Can't wait till the next one is out. I never can!
