I genuinely have no idea how they managed it. This final season was as tumultuous as game development can get—and yet, they absolutely delivered. This game is one of the rare titles in the medium that truly challenges who you are as a person. It alters your perspective on life. You find yourself empathizing with people who have committed the gravest of sins. You find your lifelong beliefs shifting in an instant.
Yes, some characters are exaggerated. And yes, a few technical issues from the first season still linger. But Clementine’s journey—her struggle to find a new home—will hold you spellbound until the very end. Because you’ve grown and matured with her, quite literally. I was born in 2003, and the first game was released in 2012, when I was eight—the same age as Clementine. We've walked this path together, all throughout the franchise.
I couldn't have asked for a more fitting conclusion to both the series and Clementine’s story. The first season left a deep impression on me—one I still reflect on from time to time. And I won’t forget this one either. The characters are all incredibly well written. Each one is introduced and developed with believable, meaningful arcs. There are hardly any moments that feel out of character—none that come to mind, at least, that would break the immersion.
Telltale made great strides in the technical aspects of their games. There are barely any freezes or abrupt loading screens. The experience flows smoothly almost the entire time.
I cannot recommend these games enough. It’s truly a shame that Telltale is no longer around. Their storytelling was nothing short of magical. It’s rare to find games these days that immerse you so deeply in the characters’ worlds—not just the settings, but their inner worlds. Their motivations, fears, quirks, and countless personality traits are portrayed with such clarity and nuance. These writers brought it all to life. Treasure these games.
I’m writing this review through tears. I still get overwhelmed—now, about to be 22 years old in a couple of tendays—just as I did when I was a teenager. This game touched me in ways that will stay with me forever. I always tear up, no matter how many times I think about it, replay it, write about it, or talk about Clementine, Kenny, and Lee. They remain in my heart. And they always will—forevermore.
Ana... if you're reading this, this message is especially for you. You were by my side throughout my two years of high school, and together we shared a deep love for this game that touched us so profoundly.
Also... where is Kenny’s hat for Alvin Junior, Telltale and Skybound? You broke my heart!
Thank you, Telltale, for giving us this unforgettable experience over the past seven years. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
And I say this—crying tears of joy and gratitude from the depths of my heart—alongside the entire community: thank you, Skybound, for completing the final two episodes of the last season, for giving us the conclusion we so desperately needed, and for not taking Clementine away from us. Thank you, so, so, so much.
Oh, and one more thing—there's a series of comic books written by Tillie Walden that aims to expand Clementine's story beyond the final season. I've been reading them while waiting for the third volume to be released this month. That said, there are a few things I won’t spoil, particularly involving AJ, that left me upset. It’s important to note that the comics aren’t canon; they’re more of a fan-made continuation for those who wish to imagine what Clementine’s journey might look like beyond the game. Just a small addendum: the comics are often rage-inducing, as they repeatedly deconstruct Clementine’s character. Please keep in mind that they are not considered canon. I myself felt deeply upset on multiple occasions—this is certainly not the Clementine I know. Still, they exist for those who wish to explore that particular interpretation. To be clear, I dislike the comics and would not recommend them at all; they strip away everything we’ve come to know and love about Clementine. Many times, I felt deeply disappointed and angry. But, well, they’re out there.
Oh, my darlin',
Oh, my darlin',
Oh, my darlin' Clementine.
You are lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry Clementine.
I need you to live, AJ. For me. That's your job now.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season is a story driven, choice based adventure game with emotional decisions and deep characters.
It’s the last game in the franchise, and every season has been more beautiful than the last, everything is crafted to near perfection.
From Season 1 to the Final Season, Clementine’s character development is incredible, starting as a scared little girl learning how to survive from Lee, to becoming the one who teaches AJ those same lessons. Character development across the whole franchise is flawless.
If you haven’t played any of the games yet, start from Season 1 and experience the full journey, it all builds up to this masterpiece.
9.5/10

A fitting end to Clem's Saga. Very similar in style to the first Walking Dead game, and that's a really good thing. Clementine is now in the protector/teacher role, much like Lee was. AJ is molded based on what you teach him and some of these decisions are not at all easy to make. Some of the chapters have scenes that slog along but there are plenty of action packed and heart wrenching scenes, and fairly gruesome parts throughout the game as well. Telltale Games gives us its final bow and leaves the series on a high note.

TL;DR
The Walking Dead is the best game I've ever played. 11/10.
I don't cry when I play games. Maybe I get upset and tear up a little, but I have never cried like The Walking Dead made me cry. Clementine and Lee had to be (in my opinion) the best duo in a game I've ever played, and seeing Clementine progress through the games and grow up is just so heartwarming.
The ending of the Final Season is just perfect, I couldn't have asked for a better way to finish off the series. Last year, I put off playing twd and let it sit in my account because I thought it was somewhat boring.. but after 40 hours of the most beautiful story, characters, game play, and the hardest choices I've ever made.. I know I was right to return.
I will absolutely NEVER forget twdt. I'll tell my kids about it. I'll tell all of my friends about it.
If I ever lose my memory in an accident, please get me to play this game again.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season is not just a game; it's an emotional rollercoaster that is impossible to forget. This installment concludes Clementine’s legendary story—and does so brilliantly. Every scene is filled with tension, every decision feels truly important, and the ending is something that sends shivers down your spine.
The graphics are more stylish, the gameplay feels more dynamic, and the characters are so real that it feels like you’re living their fates alongside them. The soundtrack? Perfect. The atmosphere? Flawless. The story? The best in the series!
If you’ve ever loved Telltale games, then Final Season is their masterpiece. It’s not just a game; it’s a work of art that will make you laugh, cry, and feel every second along with the characters. The ending is powerful, profound, and incredibly moving.
A must-play, 10/10, no doubt!

idky but this one hit me harder than the other episodes. S1 (especially the ending) and S2 were also great, but the Final Season made up for an overall better and more emotional experience, and with a worthy finale.
Clementine might as well be the best written videogame character of all time
