Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series
Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series is the Telltale version of the incredibly popular and highly acclaimed TV and novel series of the same name, Game of Thrones.

Filled with warfare, vegeance, political intrigue, and gore, the Forresters will have to fight to survive in these uncertain times, and whether or not they will make it all boils down to the choices you make.Telltale Games have never disappointed their fans with any of their intense, story-driven episodic games so far and they are not about to start now with Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series, which already has quite the compelling storyline of its own. So, if you're a fan of Telltale, Game of Thrones or simply story-driven games, this is the sort of game you'll want to buy.
Linda Brown: Interactive Story
Linda Brown: Interactive Story is The Other Guys' forey into the interactive storytelling business after their pretty good sucess with the Sherlock-themed hidden objects game, Sherlock Holmes: Lost Detective. Similar to the latter, this game features an intriguing and immersive, romance-and-mystery-filled story where you'll be playing as Linda Brown herself. Meet a host of interesting characters (and you can even date some of them), travel to various locations as you follow the trail of clues, and make important decisions that will change the path of your narrative.However, unlike games like Episode or Choices, Linda Brown: Interactive Story has a gameplay that is a lot similar to any of the games Telltale Games produced. This means that characters in the game will remember your reactions or responses and act accordingly the next time you meet.
The only major downside in this game is that, like Episodes and Choices, there are special "premium decisions" that you can make to further deepen the storyline, but the diamonds needed to buy these special decisions can be pretty costly - $3 per premium decision. Due to this, it might be great to have the option of earning diamonds by watching video ads.
Overall though, Linda Brown: Interactive Story is still a very well-written interactive story that doesn't only have romantic elements but also an intriguing mystery that rivals most hidden objects games. If you enjoy a good mystery with a dash of romance, this is the game you should play.
