    The waiting is hard for this game since the first two episodes were amazing and all I want to do is keep going. If you can manage to wait for the episodes to come out one by one, then you shouldn't have a problem. Besides, because there are 3 save slots, you can play the episodes over and over.

    If you plan on getting all the episodes then I suggest buying them all right now as a bundle since it will be cheaper for you in the long run

    Lets say you start of with one save slot, you can play and be the good guy through both episodes. With another save slot, you can play and be the bad guy. But with every choice you make, it'll affect future episodes. But that's what I'm doing, I'm using two save slots to make different choices and seeing where it's taking me

    Hope this helps.

    It runs on touch I don't know why it says it doesn't just because it skips a bit doesn't mean it's unplayable. Even the iPad lags in action parts.i want episode 3 now.

    Ok thanks mate.

    Do you mean you could, for example:

    Play through episode one being good, then with the second slot being bad, then when you start episode two the first slot picks up your ep 1 save and the second slot will carry on from your second slot? Or you choose which file to continue from?

    Or if I play multiple save slots will the second ep automatically load my first save? Like would I have to play both (or all) episodes before trying different actions?

    In case I'm not explaining it clearly, even though there are 3 slots to save your game, can you only carry over one save from game to game at a time or could I load whichever I please through consecutive episodes? So play a episode one "good" then again "bad", start episode two loading my good game then load the bad one into the second slot and so on

    How it works is that before you start playing, you have to choose just one slot. And any decision you make in episode one carries to episode two. There's no way to save what you do in episode 2 in another slot. It's like one save slot per play through. So you would have to start right from the beginning of episode 1 if you play from another slot. Hope it's making sense

    I would get this game in a heartbeat of the episodes were released as seperate apps, with your save trasferring via icloud, gamecenter sync, or some other method. God only knows how large the file size will be when all episodes are released, and I'm stuck w/ a 16 (12-13 usable, probably less when I upgrade to 6.0) Gb device until I'll be eligible for an upgrade in about a year.

    Then I'll get a 64 GB for sure...unless the followup to the iphone 5 comes in a 128 GB variety. My old iPod classic is 80 Gb for goodness sake!

    You don't have to keep the episodes installed on your device. You can delete them as you finish them if space is an issue. I understand where you are coming from as I like to keep the whole experience installed, but if size is an issue, well, it is not if you are willing to play through, beat and delete episodes!

    I think I get you. So basically I can play through episode 1 as a good guy in slot one, then replay it as a bad guy in slot two, but episode two will only pick up my good guy save and if I want to have it continue my bad guy save I need to start the whole game from the beginning. Sound about right?

    In that case, I might just play through the entire episodes as good, then once it's all over try the opposite to completion, rather than toying with different consequences for a single episode with no chance to carry that one over. Wish you could have two different choices running parallel to each other through two slots the whole way along though.

    Thanks for bearing with me on my questions bud haha

    iOS6 wiped out my game data so I guess I'll be playing the whole series on PC after this. Besides Episode 3 is already out and Episode 4 is coming pretty soon :D

    anada - each slot is a completely different game. You could have three different people playing in each slot if you like, and they could all be at different chapters in the game. You don't have to finish the game in slot one before you start a new game. Think of them as "game slots" not "save slots." So, you can have two different choices running parallel to each other the whole way through.
