This was purchased for my son, and this rating is based on my son's comments, as he is the one playing it. He is a long time Minecraft fan, so he's coming to it with plenty of background in the original game. He referred to it as "epic", "story driven" and "very interactive." And since it is a Telltale game, you'd expect it to be just that way, an interactive story.

The game does require that decisions be made as the tale unfolds, such as whether to ask someone to stay, or to go, for example, and these choices are supposed to shape the way the story progresses and alter events. There is also some minimal fighting to be done, Minecraft style, so expect some basic swordplay against the usual suspects.

But as to the caveat alluded to in the header, only episode one is on this disk, and purchasing it only entitles you to download the remaining episodes 2-5. It is in the description here on Amazon, and in small print on the back of the case, but could easily be overlooked in both places. So you'll have to have the means to download the remaining episodes--so be sure you can get online...which brings me to my next warning: Apparently episodes 2-5 aren't even yet available, which means that once your gamer is done with episode one, there's nothing to go on to. This was, understandably, a big disappointment to my son. It should not not be an issue in the however distant future, but for now is a huge downer.
Unless your gamer is a die hard Minecraft fan and absolutely has to have this right now, I would give serious consideration to waiting until all five episodes are available. Unfortunately, I don't have any idea as to the timeline for the roll out of the remaining episodes, so at this point it is an exercise in patience. Of course, my son just reminded me, you can always replay episode 1 and make different decisions.
