Zombies are pretty popular right now, and AMC’s The Walking Dead stands as one of the most-watched programs on the air. However, moms who love to see a good undead throwdown may be completely unaware that one of the best pieces of zombie fiction can be found on downloadable marketplaces. Telltale’s adaptation of The Walking Dead is an emotionally charged masterpiece that lets players dictate who lives, who dies and who’s worth caring about. The fact that it’s an adventure game removes the mechanical complexities that hold some moms back from ever jumping into a modern video game, and the episodic structure of the product gives players some breathing room in between chapters.
