Find yourself alone in a room with a bomb. Your friends have the manual to defuse it, but they can’t see the bomb, so you're going to have to talk it out – fast!

The premiere of The Walking Dead's final season is a slow, gradual build we're hoping leads to much more.

Leap between platforms, solve puzzles and help the dead rest in peace by possessing the living and making them dance around at your merest whim in this comedy adventure game by Zoink Games, with writing by the Eisner-award winning Ryan North.

Like the gaming equivalent of binge-watching a playlist of the funniest Vine videos, WarioWare Gold provides some enjoyable short attention span shenanigans, particularly for newcomers. But in the absence any substantial new additions and a paucity of worthwhile extras, WarioWare Gold is more like a runner-up silver for long term fans of the series.

Smart adjustments to mechanics make the act of playing the Banner Saga series finale feel as suspenseful as the story it tells.
