GAMINGtruth's own Indie Games Editor Derek Strickland delivers the verdict on the final chapter of Telltale's critically acclaimed video game series on The Walking Dead with Episode 5 "No Time Left":
"Episode 5 carries forth everything that the other chapters have put into place, blending masterful horror-infused suspense with zombie-slaying gunslinging action along with incredibly creative nightmarish scenarios and sequences.
No Time Left plays like both a movie and a game, engaging gamers in an expansive and disheartening emotional journey that stays true to The Walking Dead universe. It’s terrifying, heart-wrenching, and invigorating at the same time, and brings a great gaming experience for fans of the comics everywhere."
"Come hang out and talk Telltale with us. This episode we talk about The Walking Dead Episode 5 – No Time Left. We wanna know your thoughts! Leave us a review!" -- PlayStation Enthusiast
Telltale Games have pulled out all the stops in No Going Back, with moments so powerful, so moving, that it will leave you with an emotional hangover afterwards. I wouldn't say it was as shocking as Season 1, but it was definitely worth playing for the powerful experience alone. It will manipulate your feelings and break your heart - a ride worth going on.

With the release of The Walking Dead: Episode 5 around the corner, Telltale Games have released a developer interview.
A fantastic conclusion to a fantastic series. It has everything: action, horror, suspense, and heart-breaking emotional elements that bring all of the characters to life--and death--throughout the game.
These episodic games can be really great. Good job, Derek!
