Telltale Texas Hold'em, the first game by Telltale Games, was released for Windows on February 11, 2005. It was created as a demonstration of the Telltale Tool, which is Telltale's engine that runs all of their games. It was released to test their digital distribution system, which, at the time, was referred to as Telltale Now, and is now simply known as the Telltale Store.
It is a character-driven game of Texas Hold'em poker. You play in the third person at a poker table, and are simply known as "The Player". You play against four computer-controlled characters, each with their own unique personality.
