The cast, which includes comedians Brian Posehn and Patton Oswalt (if you pick the male Jesse), returns, and is just as charming as in the first season. Much of what made the first season of Minecraft: Story Mode work returns here. The world-building brings to mind 90’s cartoon ReBoot, which followed the sentient virtual denizens of someone’s computer. This journey sends them on a collision course with the Admin, a legendary figure who supposedly created the very world in which they live.

Check out our thoughts on the series premiere in our Minecraft: Story Mode Season 2 review. Its second season debuts today with the first episode, Hero in Residence. Fusing the deeply open-ended gameplay of Minecraft with the scripted narratives of Telltale Games’ adventures seemed like a mismatch when it was first announced, but that’s exactly what we got in 2015 with Minecraft: Story Mode, and the results were surprisingly charming.
