Each episode takes roughly two hours to play through and requires you to make tough decisions about who to trust when society falls apart. Though the games are available on almost every contemporary gaming device, they look best on the PC, with colorful characters and landscapes that look like they were ripped straight out of a graphic novel and then animated onscreen.
