Another chapter available. Yeah !!

Shouldn't be that much longer now then before they will ALL be out and I can start to play the game

Good review flotsam.

I just finished the game - well to the end of Book 4 - but now wish I'd made some different choices and I didn't even mean to make some of them, just had my mouse in the wrong place being impatient!! LOL Oh well, I suppose it's a case of either just living with them or maybe playing part of the game over again - maybe from Book 2 or 3 (wouldn't bother playing book 1 again though). By the way, I loved the game, really got carried away with the story and loved the way Zoe looked in the last Book, I think some people thought she looked too different from what she originally did.

Has anyone else replayed Chapters and tried different choices?

I will certainly do that when I play it through when Book 5 is released.
Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Thanks flotsam and Jenny. I liked this episode considerably more than you did, I think. My jaw was on the floor the entire time. I found it the most riveting book so far, particularly the purple area in which my avatar takes place. (No spoilers. ) My only criticism is that I miss the exploration the previous books had. (Book One's Propast was my favorite as far as exploration goes, and now my favorite location in any game. It's just so rich in detail.) That could account for the somewhat shorter time, though I wouldn't consider 4 hours for an episode short at all. It's still huge, especially compared with TellTale's episodes, which are only around two hours, if we're lucky. Actually it took me quite a bit longer than that, as I always explore every detail I can and talk to every character until they run out of things to say.

JoAJ, I have about three playthroughs going on at once, all with different choices. I consider this the best game I've played since the original TLJ, and since games like this don't come around very often, I want to get as much as I can out of it. I don't understand why anyone would say Zoe looks different at all? She has the exact same features she did in Dreamfall, only I find her even more beautiful, as the graphics have advanced so much. I like all of her hairstyles a lot more, too. They make the original Dreamfall style look boring by comparison.

Venus, I quite agree with everything you've said. I don't really understand why anyone would not like Zoe's looks, not much different really, if at all and personally I think she looks absolutely gorgeous, particularly in Book 4. I would also say that Book 4 was my favourite, I tried so hard to stop myself finishing it. Did get a bit stuck in one particular part, even though in the end I looked at a video showing what to do. Just couldn't seem to move in the right direction at the right time, don't want to say where exactly, but it was all purple! LOL You'll know where I mean I think. In the end, our daughter was over at the weekend and she'd already played past that part of it, so got her to have a go. She even said she didn't know how she did it, just sort of fluked it!

I know, sometimes I would stop and stare at Zoe's character model while playing; she's just so pretty. Same with Kian, actually. Also, I like to just stop and admire the scenery, as it's such a beautiful game in general.

I think I know exactly which part you mean. That drives me crazy every time I get to it. I think you have to time it just right, so time slows when the "thing" is coming forward. I'm being purposely ambiguous, but I think you'll know what I mean. That doesn't mean I'm very good at it, but afterward it leads to the most riveting part of the story so far, so I forgive it . . . mostly.

Yes Venus, that is the part I meant! Gosh I'm not sure if I really want to play it all over again and frankly not sure where to actually start it from if I do, let alone what one does with the other save games - not even sure where you find them, they just seem to be there and all I've been doing is just pressing "continue". I was sort of hoping Book 5 would be released soon - but all there is is speculation from people on Red Thread Games.

Not at all sure how you've managed to get 3 playthroughs going at once either..

I know, the saved games are a pain to wade through! They've said on their forums that they do plan to hopefully have save slots at some point, but they understandably have to focus on other things now. It is annoying to navigate, I know. I just have to look through the dates and hope I find the right save. I always do eventually, but sometimes it takes me a while.

As for my three playthroughs, I do them over time. There's no way I can get them finished that quickly, and I'm still behind on the last. The first is the one I play when each episode first comes out, with my initial gut decisions. The second is the one I play with Thorsgoats, so he can make his decisions. (He has trouble with the controls, so he likes me to control the characters while he makes the decisions and chooses the dialogue options.) The third is the one I go through and make almost all opposite decisions than the ones I made in my initial playthrough. I'm still only somewhere in Book Three on that playthough, however, so it does take me quite some time to get through them all.

I do hope Book 5 comes out soon, but at the same time, I don't because then it will be over. I hope that they make TLJ Home eventually, but as of now, they play to work on other things afterward and are unsure. So, in a sense, I want Chapters to last as long as possible.

Good luck if you decide to do another playthrough. Maybe you can have your daughter try to fluke that part again when you get to it.
