I liked how the game tried to show that it is not all black and white by adding nuance to most of the characters. Just goes to show that Tropes Are Not Bad and it is possible to take borderline "stock characters" and make them fresh and interesting. The characters were quite realistic, and I like how the game often played with the cliches of detective noir like the chain-smoking detective, the hooker with the heart of gold, the corrupt bureaucrat, the depressed and angry alcoholic and the abusive pimp etc. For me, it was like the detective noir mashup of Harry Potter, Shrek and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Either way, the entire worldbuilding was excellent and really gripped me in the first 10 minutes. The setting was good, and I liked the new take on fairy tales and mythologies (although some of this must be because of the source comic). And I am glad I did, because it was amazing. So I started The Wolf Among Us on a whim after realizing I wasn't having much fun with some other games I tried.
