Minecraft Story Mode – Episode 3 –The Last Place You Look Review

The chapters in Telltale Games’ Minecraft: Story Mode are coming out much faster than the episodes in their other series. With the holidays and everything else going on in life, it’s hard to keep up with them. Episode 4 just came out so we’re going to try to rush through that over the Christmas break. To recap the story so far: Jesse and her friends, who are Minecraft enthusiasts, get sucked into their own adventure when the villain of the series, Ivor, creates a Wither Storm which threatens to consume the whole world of Minecraft. They need to reunite The Order of the Stone to get the help they need to stop the Wither Storm. I’ll let my 9-year-old Minecraft expert take over:

At the end of Episode 2, Ivor got away using a slow-motion potion (hey, that rhymes). Petra got infected by the Wither Storm and is very sick. We continued looking for Soren and found him in The End. Endermen attacked Soren’s base, where Soren was trying to teach Endermen how to craft things. Soren has SuperTNT and we had to help him find gunpowder to make the formidabomb. This could be the weapon that could stop the Wither Storm.

After the group goes to face the Wither Storm, (I chose to use Ellegard’s armour to protect me), Jesse gets sucked up, along with the crafting table and materials for the formidabomb, by the Wither Storm. Jesse crafts the formidabomb in mid-air and then throws it at the Wither Storm, blowing it up but not destroying the Command Block that created it. The Wither Storm was blasted into three pieces and out came all the people it had sucked up. Jesse finds the Command Block and it starts sucking her in but she is saved by Gabriel, the missing member of The Order of the Stone who got sucked up by the Wither Storm in Episode 1. But Gabriel doesn’t even remember who he is, and then the screen goes black.
