Unfortunately, we are not talking about AMC’s hit TV series. No, instead we are talking about Telltale Game’s upcoming adventure game based on the comic series. If you haven’t heard, Telltale games is making a 5-episode series of adventure games (one episode will be released a month) based on The Walking Dead comics.
Unlike the TV show, the games will focus on a different group of survivors who are also in Georgia. The first episode is coming out in April, and you can pre-order the full season right now with a 10% discount. But the best part of all is that everybody who pre-orders the game will be automatically entered into a contest to have your likeness actually in the game. One winner will appear as another survivor the group encounters but then dies horribly to return as a zombie! “Up to” four other lucky winners (for a given value of lucky) will have their likenesses included in the game as random zombies in the horde! Sure, it’s not quite the same as being an extra in AMC’s version, but it’s still pretty cool. Check out the official website for more the fine print and pre-order information. And check out the teaser and debut trailers while you’re at it.
