Video Review

Ranking:

Between the mob grinder and the Endermen fiascos, this is the most 'Minecrafty' episode we’ve seen so far. In spite of the limitations of the signature pixel blocks, Telltale is fashioning interesting and pretty settings. From a technical perspective, the game hums along without many snags.

Audio Review

Ranking:

Voice acting continues to be pretty good - believable, but with a dose of sarcasm. Many sound effects are lifted straight from the original game. The music is the familiar pensive keyboard, but with its own charm.

Final Thoughts

I’m keeping my expectations in check for 'Minecraft: Story Mode', but I can’t shake this nagging suspicion that we’ve seen the best the series has to offer, in 'Order of the Stone'. The characters and their motivations just can’t seem to keep me invested. At any rate, we’ll be sticking with the season until the bitter end, hoping for redemption.
