Minecraft: Story Mode Episode One: The Order of the Stone (Netflix version)

Coding for Netflix means the QTEs and light exploration that made the console versions of "Story Mode" more than a series of choices are gone, rendering "Story Mode" more easily comparable to kids shows like "Adventure Time" and "The Amazing World of Gumball" than Telltale's past games. "Minecraft" suffers for the comparison, having fewer gags per minute than either show and opting to play things under the top; Chuck Jones would weep. How the same company behind "Tales From the Borderlands" could make something so painfully unfunny is beyond me. Heck, I've read CYOA books that put this to shame.
