The next chapter of Season Two of The
Walking Dead begins in the middle of the action we left in episode
three. After a harrowing escape one of our new friends gives Clem
some pointers on what life is like in a post-apocalyptic world. We
find out some more information regarding our new companions, and also
find that the group may have been pressed beyond it's breaking point.
I play this game with two different
save files, as I imagine many people do, and this episode seems to
build even more on the precedent set by the previous one. The
decisions you make really seem to matter, and could be affecting the
narrative heavily. There are both happy and sad moments along the
way, and I get the impression that things could go very differently
based on Clementine's actions throughout this chapter.
The ending is a major cliffhanger,
setting up what should be a very shocking finale. Make your
decisions carefully and enjoy the story as it unfolds.
Conclusion:
“Amid the Ruins” rushes the player towards this season's
conclusion. Emotions are running high and it almost seems like no
decision is going to have a happy ending. This was the perfect
lead-in for the season finale.
Rating:
8.5/10
