Andrew Otton's Reviews

Writing about games and learning about how the industry works, talking to developers, and doing reviews since 2014. Gaming peaked with Dynasty Warriors 4.
9 / 10.0 - The Banner Saga
Mar 19, 2014

Anyone who plays games to get lost in a world and its story will love The Banner Saga.

'A Crooked Mile' is not at the level one has come to expect from Telltale, however, has just enough interesting moments and intrigue, particularly at its end, to keep you interested in what is to come.

9.6 / 10.0 - Transistor
May 22, 2014

If you can believe it, Transistor surpasses the quality of Bastion in nearly every respect, making it a near perfect game. Easily the best game of the year so far.

Episode 4 latches on to your curiosity more than any other. If you are even interest a small amount in the story, this is a great episode to play.

Don't go in expecting something on the same level as The Walking Dead, but if you are interested in the setting, give The Wolf Among Us a try.

9.1 / 10.0 - DG2: Defense Grid 2
Sep 23, 2014

Defense Grid 2 pushes what you can do to a tower defense game as far as possible and still have the game remain a tower defense game.

An average story mixed with some great nuggets to experience, all of which takes place in beautiful backdrops and wonderful accompanying music.

6.9 / 10.0 - The Legend of Korra
Oct 26, 2014

The Legend of Korra is the perfect example of how a development team cuts corners at a great cost.

Game of Thrones Episode 2 may be Telltale's best showing yet, capturing the world of A Song of Ice and Fire near perfectly.

Game of Thrones Episode 4 will assuredly keep many players engaged and does a great job of creating the potential for an interesting and/or satisfying end.

The Witcher 3 both meets and exceeds expectations, creating a game that will have a lasting impact on the entire industry.

A Nest of Vipers has some shortcomings but is an overall solid episode, leaving behind a good amount of potential for what should be a climactic ending.

While it stumbles in some places, Hearts of Stone is better than the vast majority of "additional content" that most modern games offer.

Season 1 can be defined by its misused and poorly executed potential, leaving behind something a little better than average.

The Ice Dragon mistakes shock and surprise for engaging material. Combined with the typical Telltale technical woes, it leaves behind an underwhelming experience.
