The Wolf Among Us is a video game developed in 2013-2014 by Telltale Games. A spin-off, taking place in a separate universe as the Fables comic book series. It chronologically takes place in 1986 and is a decision designed game that features very similar gameplay mechanics to Telltale's previous game, The Walking Dead.

The game, as is The Walking Dead, is episodic in nature; it consists of five episodes that were digitally released overtime from October 2013 to July 2014. A retail disc version was released for PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, Xbox 360, as well as PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on November 4, 2014 in North America and on November 7, 2014 in Europe.

Bigby Wolf is sheriff of Fabletown. During this time period Ichabod Crane is deputy mayor; Snow White, who is Crane's secretary, is the game's deuteragonist and Bigby's ally and close friend. The story follows Bigby as he investigates a murder, allowing him to interact with many of the well-known fables from the series.

Many fairy tale creatures have moved into an area of Manhattan known as "Fabletown".

Episode 4: "In Sheep's Clothing"

Beaten and bloody, Bigby is confronted by the realization that a society built on secrets is ripe for exploitation.
