Bigby Wolf is not a happy man. Chalk it up to a particularly brutal scuffle with a bearded woodsman that I choreographed to a point that sent the pair crashing out a second story window. Or perhaps it has something to do with the fact that as the sheriff of Fabletown, he has to choose between focusing on a lead in a murder case, or following up on an urgent phone call from a friend in trouble. Then again, maybe it’s because the once-Big Bad Wolf has been exiled alongside the rest of his storybook legends and doomed to centuries of trying to assimilate in the grimiest burrow in New York City.
So I guess if I were Bigby, I wouldn’t be very happy either.
The Wolf Among Us, Telltale’s follow-up to Season One of The Walking Dead, sits nestled in a comfortable space for both newcomers and Fable-aficionados alike. Taking place 10 years before the comic-proper prevents newbies from being dumped in the deep end of the pool. And the writing is strong enough to help form a basic image of these characters through the dialogue without bashing us over the head with pandering exposition. By the end of the first scene, you’ll all know just what kind of a person…err…wolf that Bigby is, and you’ll be well on your way of molding him into your own personal Fable. And for us fans of Bill Willingham’s series, Telltale isn’t stingy with the nods towards some of our favorite characters and places. Stumbling across Bluebeard’s case file and poking through an amazingly realized version of Snow White's office had me cracking smiles throughout my entire playthrough of the demo.
