The game is a continuation of the games Borderlands 1 and 2. But those games were fantastic shooters (Borderlands 1 - even with RPG elements), and this is a graphic adventure. The player controls two different characters: Fiona is a fraudster, and Reese is a programmer for Hyperion. Characters are found on the planet Pandora after the defeat of Handsome Jack. The story will show the common events of both characters in view of each of them. Each character has its own unique abilities. For example, Fiona can steal and use the money, and Reese with the help of an implant and a cybernetic hand knows how to crack electronic devices and scan various elements. The game contains five episodes in which the player explores the outside world, communicates with non-player characters and interacts with the elements of the location, and also collects and uses various items. The choice and actions of the player in the initial episodes will affect the plot in later episodes. The game has a few shootouts too.
Runs well on modern hardware.

The Best Telltale game I've ever played. Fantastic storytelling, unforgettable blend of music and cutscenes. Highly recommended!
Its freaking great, I've played a lot of TellTales games and this is one of my favorites. It tells a compeling story with an increible balance in comedy and serius/emotional story telling. I cant tell you how good this is, just try it, its a gem and its going to make you want to play the Borderlands games. I hope you have a great day reader and, with nothing else i must say CATCH A RIDEEEEE
A genuine masterpiece as you'd expect from prime Telltale. You'll want to play Borderlands 1 & 2 before this if you want the full context of things, but it's not needed to enjoy it. This game has an incredibly strong story with compelling characters new and returning. Along with it's great soundtrack, it does a very good job at making you care about every decision. I really wish it were longer, but this is just about one of the best Hershey Kisses of a game you'll ever play. The laughs and even a couple tears it gave me were so memorable. Telltale, you are so missed.
