Has anybody played the new adventure Back To The Future game? There is only one episode out right now but I'm really enjoying it. I like that they got Christopher Lloyd to do the voice of Doc Brown. Unfortunately Michael J. Fox does not provide the voice for Marty. However they hired somebody that sounds really good.
There are a lot of little references to the movies throughout the game. It also feels like Back To The Future 4. The game opens up during the iconic scene in the mall parking lot and then a new adventure begins. I'm not going to spoil anything but if you're a fan of the movies you should really like this game.
I got it off Steam for $24.95 which includes all five episodes. The first one is already out and they are releasing a new one every month until May.

I was waiting to hear more people talk about this.
I read a lot of mixed things but I am thinking of picking it up, huge fan of the franchise.

I'm a big BTTF fanboy as well and this is definitely on my list. I'm waiting to play the first episode for free in February (through a promotion Telltale games was doing) before I make any purchases though.

From what I've seen I like. The only negative review I saw was by someone who hated adventure games.

No unfortunately. It is on PC/Mac, PS3, and iPad. I would probably have gotten it on the 360 if it was available. I think as of right now it is only out on PC/Mac with the other versions coming soon.

What sort of emphasis does the "time traveling" involve? Does it just follow the movies so you're just in certain times such as the 50's, or does it kind of function like Mario's Time Machine?

It follows the movies. I'm not going to be really blowing the storyline here since you can see it in the trailers but you go back to the prohibition era.
I finished Episode 1, it was good though you didn't really do much.

Just finished the first episode and I really enjoyed it. Some of the puzzles are on the easy side but it looks like its going to be a great game.
100% recommended if you're a Back to the Future fanboy, like me.
Can't wait for the second episode to come out.

Second episode came out on Feb 17th.
I just finished it there, it's fairly short like the first episode and the puzzles are similarly quite easy but still enjoyable. I look forward to part 3.
