Live-Action TV is kind of like live action Film. Kinda. You have actors on a set, with specific characters, telling a story. You film it, you send it to post-production, and you jazz it up with special effects. When you're done, you have what appears to be real people in real situations acting unusual stories for your entertainment. And since it's recorded, you can watch it over and over again and it'll be the same every time, unlike Theater. But TV is different—the stories go on longer and are cheaper than movies (unless you buy massive TV box sets), but you only get to see a little of them every week. Eventually, someone in the Video Game industry looked at this model and said: "Huh. Well, if TV can do it... why can't we?" Episodic Games (or Episodic Gaming) is a relatively new take on a fairly old model in game production and distribution, pushed forward by digital download services. Episodic games are actually more like miniseries than TV shows, but the idea is similar. (PC shareware games during the late 80s and early 90s were all about episodic content, just not quite in the same way as modern episodic games.) Episodic games are short, cheap games (usually in the $5-$10 range), each of which tells part of the story. They take less time to develop due to their short length, so they can come out more frequently. They only tell part of a game story. However, due to their cost, if a player buys all the episodes, they still end up getting a full retail-priced game over a period of time. The idea behind releasing games episodically is fairly simple: By releasing more content over several months, gamers don't have to wait years for more new games. And by pricing them moderately, gamers can buy them and enjoy them steadily without having to put one massive-sized dent in their wallet. It doesn't always work out perfectly, of course. Companies can have financial troubles, developers can get carried away with designing the next installment, bugs happen, and all the usual stuff that stops games from being released on time. Because of the way it works, episodic gaming lends itself well to story-based games, such as Adventure Games. In particular, Telltale Games has historically made significant profit on episodic adventure games. |

Knee Deep was a low-budget TellTale-like adventure game, released over 2015. Its development was unusual in three ways: 1) It only had three episodes instead of the standard five; 2) The player didn't buy them separately but instead had to pay for the season pass at the start; 3) The first episode lacked voice acting, but it was patched in after the release of the subsequent episodes. | |

Half-Life 2 was an early attempt, just as famous for the quality of its first two "episodes" as it is infamous for the gaming community's slow realization that Episode Three is never going to happen. The game's head writer would eventually release a plot summary for the game on his blog a decade after Episode Two's release, which put an end to years of "Half-Life 3 confirmed" jokes. Jokes about Valve not knowing how to count to 3note Don't expect a Team Fortress 3. Or a Left 4 Dead 3. Or a Portal 3. continue, however. | |

Alternate Reality was an ambitious mid-1980s sandbox RPG project. The first part — The City — was to serve as the hub and the rest 6 — The Dungeon, The Palace, The Wilderness, etc. — would expand it, but remain playable as standalones. Together they would form an unprecedently huge game world. Only 2 games were released: The City and The Dungeon. Due to buggy Copy Protection merging them resulted in player's death. | |

Penumbra is a debut work of horror by the Frictional Games. The first episode, Overture, was generally praised as a promising start. The following one, Black Plague, is considered to build further build on Overture's strengths, and it also started some of Frictional's signature traditions, like not including combat (present in Overture). The final one, Requiem, is much shorter, had undergone a severe Genre Shift towards being a Puzzle Game and is generally considered skippable at best. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is one of the earliest examples of this trope. Sonic 3 by itself has the first six Zones and Sonic & Knuckles has the last eight Zones. You can "Lock-On" both cartridges together and play one big combined game, Sonic 3 & Knuckles. This was originally not the plan with the game; the entire S3&K package was supposed to be released as simply one game, but time constraints forced Sega to split the game in half so they could get half of it onto store shelves and the other half done later. | |

Super Robot Wars occasionally does this. With the exception of Operation Extend, each episode is a separate physical product. Super Robot Wars F and F Final, a duology that serves as a very loose reimagining of Super Robot Wars 4. Unlike most other Super Robot Wars examples, the F duology is treated as one continuous game mechanics-wise. Super Robot Wars Compact 2, a trilogy (Earth Crisis, Cosmoquake, and Galaxy Showdown) of games that are mostly self-contained gameplay-wise but tell one continuous story, with the first two episodes occurring simultaneously In-Universe while the third contains the climax. This was subverted when the trilogy was compiled and remade into Super Robot Wars Impact, which is one continuous game. Super Robot Wars Z2, the two-part sequel (Hakai-hen and Saisei-hen) to the first Super Robot Wars Z. Super Robot Wars Z3, the two-part sequel (Jigoku-hen and Tengoku-hen) to the aforementioned Super Robot Wars Z2 duology. Super Robot Wars OE, an eight-chapter game that, when it was available, required players to purchase and download each chapter separately. |

Penny Arcade Adventures has had five episodes released. Notable in that a switch in both the studio and the genre had occurred midway through. Whereas the first two episodes had greater production values and were more real-time in nature, the financial considerations led to another studio using RPG Maker-style combat and aesthetics for the concluding three. | |

Final Fantasy VII Remake is an odd example: for all intents and purposes, it is an episodic game by way of being a video game remake broken into separate games. But due to Adaptation Expansion, each entry is as long as the original game on their own, and are full-priced rather than budget titles like most instances of this trope. | |

Cognition: An Erica Reed Thriller was developed by the same studio as The Silver Lining, but also involved Jane Jensen of Gabriel Knight. Its initial episode, The Hangman, released in 2012, and was originally planned to have five episodes, each named after the new killer introduced by said episode. Lackluster sales forced them to reduce it to 4, though, and also to give up on the second season after finishing the first in 2013. | |

Deltarune is weird about this. The first chapter was released in 2018 as a surprise, under the guise of a "survey program". People assumed this is what would be a demo for the full game, but in 2021, Chapter 2 was released for free. Toby Fox stated Chapter 2 was made free as a voluntary decision, and Chapters 3-5 will be part of the full game, which will have a price tag. | |

Siege of Avalon pioneered the format in the Western RPG genre back in 2000, with a deliberately novel-like plot subdivided into six chapters. The first chapter was downloadable for free, the remaining five had to be purchased and downloaded individually — despite the fact that all were released at roughly the same time. A year later, the whole story has been compiled and published on a single CD, however. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is one of the earliest examples of this trope. Sonic 3 by itself has the first six Zones and Sonic & Knuckles has the last eight Zones. You can "Lock-On" both cartridges together and play one big combined game, Sonic 3 & Knuckles. This was originally not the plan with the game; the entire S3&K package was supposed to be released as simply one game, but time constraints forced Sega to split the game in half so they could get half of it onto store shelves and the other half done later. A version of Sonic 3D Blast for the Sega Channel split the game into two "parts", since there was not enough space in the Sega Channel adapter to fit the entire game. The first part featured the first four zones (Green Grove through Diamond Dust), and the second part featured the remaining levels (Volcano Valley through Panic Puppet, plus the final boss). Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, Episode II, and Episode Metal. An Episode III was planned, but cancelled after the lukewarm reception of the first two. |

The Well Speaks To Me and subsequent games are essentially one big story split up into smaller, 1-hour games, each one exploring a different mysterious incident in the Forest. | |

Tell Me Why is divided into three episodes; unlike DONTNOD Entertainment's past record with the Life Is Strange games, the episodes were released on a week-apart schedule from August-September 2020. | |

MARDEK, though Development Hell problems (rewriting the entire engine twice, among other things) caused chapter 3 to be over two years late, and the experience has exhausted the developer so much that he doesn't want to continue working on it for a while. | |

Trails Series is one long continuous story, filled with plot twists and turns. It's also infamous for even just one game to take up at least 60-70 hours long only to either end in a personal victory at best for the heroes, a Bittersweet Ending, or a Wham Episode which then sets up the next game. | |

StarCraft II was not an episodic game when it was released, but rather Wings of Liberty as the base game and Heart of the Swarm as an expansion (Although if you had bought Heart of the Swarm, you'd also get Wings of Liberty), but when Legacy of the Void was released, the game was turned episodic, and each part of the trilogy can be bought and played standalone. | |
