Explained simply
The Wolf Among Us is based on Fables, a comic series in which characters from fairy tales live in secret among ordinary people. Those who cannot blend in use magic to appear human, and many have settled in a neighbourhood called Fabletown in New York.
The player takes the role of Bigby Wolf, the former Big Bad Wolf who now serves as Fabletown’s sheriff. He investigates a violent crime and questions residents, while players’ choices affect how characters relate to one another and how the story unfolds.
