In spite of its blemishes, so far it looks like Game of Thrones: A Telltale Game Series deserves its place in the A Song of Ice and Fire lore.' - Darren Nakamura The Escapist - 4/5 It feels like a punch to the gut, and it sets the stage for an intensely emotionally draining experience. 'The bad situation that House Forrester is in is only going to get worse. It's basically a re-run of HBO's show, and you can already watch that on the telly.' - Fraser Brown Destructoid - 7/10 Absent gripping protagonists or a different take on this already well-trodden world, it doesn't offer very much at all.

Iron From Ice doesn't even have much of the latter, either. There are no puzzles, no pixel hunting, nothing other than conversations and quick-time events. 'These episodic adventures absolutely rely on interesting characters and emotional investment, because they don't really have much in the way of traditional systems. Its nature as a side-story to the HBO show means we won’t get to decide the fate of Westeros, but this introduction is convincing evidence that the future of House Forrester puts enough at stake to make choices matter.' - Dan Stapleton PCGamesN - 5/10 'Tough decisions, well-acted original characters in interesting situations, and a strong, provocative ending kick off Telltale’s new Game of Thrones series in a great way. It’s a game about family told in perhaps the most un-family-friendly environment in fantasy fiction, and in a way that will leave you sick with delight and sadness as the credits roll.' - Alexa Ray Corriea IGN - 8/10 If the show makes you scream, the game will make you scream, because it’s difficult not to get wrapped up in the struggle to serve and hold up your house. The pacing is true to its source material-slow, taking its own time-but the payoff for major scenes is worth wading through. Game of Thrones is off to a slow but not uneventful start, with an almost unfairly large heap of teases and promises for the next episode.
