There's a lot in The Wolf Among Us for Fables fans to get excited about. And if you're new to the series, it's just as good an introduction as reading the first tradeback. I enjoyed 'Faith' so much that I did two run-throughs in one sitting, and I can't...

With just one episode to go off of I'm still prepared to bet that unless Telltale screw up massively I'm going to end up thinking The Wolf Among Us is better than Game Of The Year contender/winner The Walking Dead in a few months' time. The characters...
It doesn't quite have The Walking Dead's emotional weight or instantly relatable characters, but Episode 1 of The Wolf Among Us is a fun, intriguing opener for what promises to be a macabre supernatural noir thriller.
The Wolf Among Us is a beautiful and offbeat game that's a natural, if perhaps less emotive, successor to The Walking Dead. Enter it knowing that it's more branching story than it is an action or puzzle game, however.
Faith begins Sheriff Bigby's adventure with an introduction that’s funny, brutal, and mysterious in the best possible ways.

But, story-wise, I'm hooked. The characters are fascinating, the plot heavy with potential, and my faith in Telltale's skill is high. Consider this score a work in progress then, with the expectation that it will rise over the coming months as Mr Wolf's investigation deepens.
