Review: Tales from the Borderlands: Episode 3 – Catch a Ride

Catch a Ride is the strongest episode of Tales from the Borderlands so far - the action, humour and excitement Telltale has managed to keep consistent certainly helps.

Sons of Winter delivers more of the same, with some surprise character developments yet no strong sense of story progression.
