The Walking Dead: Season One is five episodes about Lee Everett, a convicted man who ends up responsible for a child named Clementine during a zombie outbreak. The relationship between them is the whole point, and it earns every emotional beat by the finale. Telltale's engine is undemanding—this ran fine on older Intel HD graphics years ago and still does. Replay value is limited; the story paths converge more than they branch, and a second run loses the surprise that made the first hit hard. Worth knowing: the game has aged technically, with occasional choppy cutscenes on some systems. Still essential if you haven't played it.
