Telltale Explorer

If you are a fan of Telltale's adventure video games, you must also be curious about what makes them tick, which means you need the proper tool to open their dependency files up.

Well, as it happens, Telltale Explorer is exactly that tool, and it promises to help its users reach image, audio, dialog files, and plenty of other such elements for most of the titles Telltale has made available during its existence.

The program itself might seem at first like a glorified browsing program, and in the end, it seems to be just that. Regardless, I found exploring the dependencies of such programs to be more than entertaining, allowing me and you, if you like such stuff, to discover the very soul of our favorite digital products and worlds.

With this application, you will be able to easily navigate through all the files, but a bit of patience is still required because some type of sorting must be done before delving deeper into the multitude of elements the game will present. I found the interface to be helpful in this respect, allowing me to view certain files depending on the specific type I desired to view.

I must admit that some files seem to be easier to identify than others, mostly because their name indicates their purpose. For some other ones, which are usually part of a system, it might be harder to pinpoint their purpose and existence.

Thus, mesh files will be more difficult to understand since they construct various textures for the elements in the game, whereas audio files for character speech will turn out to be easier to find.

I think it is pretty clear that Telltale Explorer was created for true fans of the series, and as such you should not be surprised if you end up using the app and it does not make much sense to you. Passion for these games and curiosity are the two main ingredients fueling the use of this app. Without them, the app will not be of much use.
