Smoke and Mirrors is a great second act to The Wolf Among Us. Its 90 minutes are packed with memorable characters and scenes, as well as some of the most agonizing decisions Telltale has ever forced me to make.
... it still somehow manages to feel meaningful and essential as we’re drawn deeper into the web-like workings of Bigby’s world.
If ‘Faith’ was the setup to the story then ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ is where the plot gets into the meat and potatoes of what’s to come. Bigby gets into his swing as an investigator and uncovers some killer (pun very much intended) surprises along the way. It is short but despite that fact it still does exactly what it should, which is have you eagerly anticipating episode three. I’m sure that after you come out of the haze of ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ you’ll be more than chomping at the bit to walk ‘A Crooked Mile’.
