Telltale is a company that produces a multitude of games with the same mechanics in common. Telltale has tackled the universe of Batman, Borderlands, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and most recently Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. In the Guardians series, the player follows the narrative surrounding Peter Quill (Star-Lord) while dipping into the past memories of the other Guardians such as Rocket Racoon and Gamora. Telltale is known for their immersive and intricate stories accompanied by their quick-time events. This puts the player directly in the first person state of mind with various universes to play within. Quick-time events are short situations, normally within a cut-scene of a game, in which the player presses a button on the controller within a small gap of time in correspondence to whatever is happening in the cut-scene. Telltale takes this up a notch by adding in dialogue options for the main character, thumb-stick movements also in correspondence with the events within the game usually associated with movement, and free-roam aspects of the story. When the entire story is centered around these mechanics, a simple story is more immersive with the player feeling like they are creating the story.
