Game of Thrones: Episode Five - A Nest of Vipers Review
Game of Thrones: Episode Five - A Nest of Vipers is possibly the weakest episode thus far. Although there are some fantastic moments, it suffers at points where it feels some of the progression of the story from previous episodes took a step backwards. This, in combination with the limited gameplay segments, makes for a disappointing entry in the series. It is, however, saved thanks to a great third act and a finale that will leave players desperate to get their hands on the last part, and with an episode title of "The Ice Dragon" there's a lot to look forward to. Stick with Cubed3 for the conclusion to this great tale, coming soon.

The penultimate episode of Game of Thrones is a bit of a mess. While there's a lot of meat in this instalment, it still ends up tasting a bit bland. Between oddly behaving characters, technical issues, and poor plotting, this feels like Telltale's least inspired release in some time.
