One of the most common pitfalls when games are episodic is stagnation. Sometimes just a new bit of story isn’t quite enough to separate it from the other episodes.

Rubble Without a Cause takes a chance by adjusting the formula set forth by the first episode and succeeds by creating a darker and more intense chapter.
