Linda Brown: Interactive Story vs The Walking Dead: Season Two
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.
The Walking Dead: Season Two
The Walking Dead: Season Two is the exciting sequel to the highly acclaimed Telltale game series, The Walking Dead. This game continues the story of Clementine, a young orphaned girl who was left to fend for herself after her protector tragically sacrificed himself for her safety many months ago. Play as the young girl as she does whatever she can to survive and yet tries to retain the good that's left of humanity. Presented with various scenarios, events and moral dilemmas that a young girl shouldn't have to face, you'll need to help her make critical decisions that will change the path of her story, resulting in very differnt endings.Like the previous game, The Walking Dead: Season Two contains 5 episodes in total, namely All that Remains, A House Divided, In Harm's Way, Amid the Ruins and No Going Back.
This is definitely a game you'll want to get if you've played the Season One of the game. If not, get the Season One first before you accidentally spoiled the story for yourself!
