Starved For Help, as we've already discovered, is probably the most gruelling episode of The Walking Dead game so far. Telltale really had their sadist hats on when they wrote it, to the point that when you finally get around to getting your revenge against the insane cannibal patriarch Danny St John, even that isn't any easy decision. I mean, it should be - the guy fed you human flesh without your knowledge, then locked you up in an abattoir with the intention of making you and your group the main course - but when it comes down to it, it's not quite so simple. Part of your rage at this point is, no doubt, coloured by how protective you feel over the adorable Clementine, the orphan girl you have taken charge of. She sneaks into the barn behind you when you confront Danny with a pitchfork: he does deserve to die, really, and you'd certainly feel better if you were the one meting out that justice. At the same time Clementine, this little girl who looks up to you like a father, will watch you stab an unarmed man with a gardening implement. What to do what to do.
