How to unlock the Protector achievement in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series - Definitive Guide
Story-related; cannot be missed.
Episode 1 gets you reacquainted with the story and characters, and introduces you to some new faces. You'll also quickly learn about the "free combat" in this season: unlike all other seasons, where combat is scripted as part of quick-time events, the combat in this game is open in the sense that you can walk around and choose to attack and dodge to kill zombies. It can be a bit awkward at first, but remember to try to keep the zombies on the same side of you so you don't get surrounded.
The beginning of the episode features some of the new combat and a lot of dialogue, but you'll also eventually head outside to fight off some walkers around trees. This part can be a little frustrating, but remember to make good use of the traps located on each of the four trees. Lure a walker toward one and activate it for an instant kill. If you don't use the traps and walkers are grouped up, it's a good idea to stun one (or more) and leave one standing. Lure this one away from the others so you can kill it without getting grabbed by the other walkers. Repeat this process on the group until they're all dead.
The rest of the episode consists of dialogue or some simple action bits until the episode eventually ends.
