Critic Reviews for The Wolf Among Us: Episode 4 - In Sheep's Clothing
The Wolf Among Us Episode 4's lack of meaningful choices and scant story progression mark a low point in the series.
Episode four makes Bigby's struggle more personal, then ends abruptly, transferring the pressure to deliver onto the finale.
This episode sets the stage for the season's conclusion, but it needs more action and surprises
In Sheep's Clothing continues A Wolf Among Us' intriguing and violent story, with only a bit of wheel-spinning to slow it down.
The Wolf Among Us: In Sheep's Clothing isn't a wholly satisfying penultimate episode, but it's about on par with its predecessors in terms of quality. You'll get enough answers and confrontations to be entertained throughout, but it most definitely leaves a lot to be resolved in the final episode.
Still, "In Sheep's Clothing" nails it where it counts. Not since episode one have we felt so fascinated with The Wolf Among Us. It ties the ongoing story threads in such a way that they become more significant, making us eager to see how it all wraps up. These characters may originate from simple bedtime stories, but Telltale has made them far more real than they've ever been before.
Questions have been asked and we can now take solace that satisfying solutions are being given. Snow and Bigby's exchanges are very brief as The Sheriff focuses on getting answers that have eluded him since the beginning of The Wolf Among Us. Bigby excels in what is the most action-packed offering yet and will leave you wanting more. In Sheep's Clothing ends on one of the best cliffhangers you could imagine.
