The Wolf Among Us is a narrative-driven episodic adventure game developed by Telltale Games, based on Bill Willingham’s Fables comic book series. Released originally in 2013–2014, it combines detective noir with dark fantasy, putting players into a gritty world where fairy-tale characters secretly live among humans in New York City. You play as Bigby Wolf (the Big Bad Wolf), the sheriff of Fabletown, who’s trying to maintain order among the hidden community of exiled fairy-tale beings. The story kicks off with a brutal murder, and as Bigby investigates, he uncovers corruption, crime, and dangerous secrets lurking beneath the surface. Gameplay focuses on: Choices & Consequences – Your dialogue and actions shape relationships, story direction, and outcomes. Detective Work – Investigating crime scenes, interrogating suspects, and piecing together clues. Cinematic Storytelling – A comic book-inspired art style, moody atmosphere, and branching narrative paths. It’s known for its mature themes, mystery-driven plot, noir tone, and moral dilemmas, making it one of Telltale’s most acclaimed games alongside The Walking Dead.
