For what it's worth I find the point-and-click within a 3D world in Out From Boneville highly intuitive. In fact my 4 year old daughter had no problem negotiating Fone through the landscapes with the mouse.

One small note, "Furthermore, Jeff Smith handpicked the voice-actors, so those who mumble: “they don’t sound right”, are contesting the creator himself." isn't quite correct.

He did approve all the voices, and before they were picked he gave indicators to Telltale, such as "The Dragon should sound like Johnny Cash", but to say Smith hand-picked the cast is a stretch.

The line can easily be rectified by replacing it with "Furthermore, Jeff Smith approved the voice-acting, so those who mumble: “they don’t sound right”, are contesting the creator himself."
