GUILDscroll You might not have
known that there is a group of dedicated individuals who take
time out of their busy schedules to
help save the lives of children in
the twin cities by PLAYING
GAMES!
You might not have known that
there are ways for you to help out
tooby either signing up as a gam-
er, or becoming a sponsor.
You might not have known that
there are amazing children, like
Victoria Enmon, who could use
your support, and are just up the
road at your local Childrens Mira-
cle Network Hospital.
But, now you know. (And know-
ings half the battle).
And here is the best part...YOU can
help too!
The Guild exists to collaborate our
efforts and build cooperation
through the community so that
more people know about this awe-
some opportunity and how their
efforts can really help save the lives of children.
We coordinate different events
throughout the year and volunteer
to staff those events where we
bring enthusiasm and engagement
to get the word out about Extra-
life!
Best of all, we have a great time
and work together for a cause that
will contribute to a brighter future
for all.
We are always seeking more Guild
members who truly want to make
a difference, but if you have a lot
on your plate, we are equally
grateful for gamers, sponsors, and
support. Click this link to the extra-
life.org website for more infor-
mation on how to get involved.
Sincerely,
The Twin Cities Guild

Game: The Wolf Among Us
Developer: Telltale Games
Episodes 1-4 available now on for PS3 & 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC/MAC and on the App store. Epi-sode 5 release date: July 8th
This won't really be an in depth re-view of episodes 1-4, as there is just too much game to include here. We will give you an overview, though, and hopefully enough to decide whether you want to give it a try.
Telltale games is an incredibly solid studio who is, I think, redefining what an interactive game is, the stories that can be told, and how we feel after the credits roll.
The Wolf Among Us is based on Bill Willingham's Fables comic book series published by DC Comics.
The story takes place in Fabletown, a small community located inside Man-hattan in 1986. There are a series of murders happening in the city and it is up to youone of the most recog-nizable fairy tale characters everto solve the case.
You are the Big Bad Wolf, or as he is known in Fabletown, Sheriff Bigby. Bigby is dealing with a lot of issues, both internally and physically, throughout the game. Each interroga-tion, each Quick Timed Event, is a choice. Does he be as big and as bad as he can be or does he prove to all of the fables that doubt him, that he has
changed?
The art style and the graphics in this game are great. The voiceover work and writing are creative and clever. And they did a great job with the soundtrack; it has a dark noir, synth feel to it. The replay-ability for this game is mid to high. The story of a sick and twisted serial killer is a riv-eting one that will hook you and have you thinking of your favorite child-hood fairy tales in a whole new light.
Episodes 1-4 rating: An 8.5 out of 10.
