    Cool game with cool humor. You won't remember it two months form now but you will have blast playing it for short 10 hours.

    Rick and Morty'i seven bir kişi olarak oyunu güzel ve eğlenceli buldum. Umarım Justin Roiland'ın bu şekilde oyun projelerini gelecekte daha çok görürüz.

    Can be funny if you enjoy Justin Roiland and Rick and Morty comedy. Pretty basic gunplay, not great but fun enough. I beat the main story in a little under 7 hours and there is not much left to do after those 7 hours. Feels a little overpriced at $60 but a fine game to pick up on sale. Trover Saves the Universe is the better game. 6.5/10

    High on life is a comedy game, so as player you can't be serious. We don't have a lot games like this, but first things first. Some about fun from playing. I had a lot of laughs when I was playing in HoL. We have here rude jokes, irrational characters, weird but simple plot and all that staff from Rick and Morty that I love.

    Gameplay is simple, roaming, shooting, jumping from platform to platform and speaking with weird creatures. Yes is so simple, but not this is core of gameplay. Core is unprecedented sense of humor that flood us from the screen. Is one, big easter egg, parody mechanics from other games. Unfortunate the game is linear, and without this all jokes is only next "Quake". Didn't offer any new solutions or perspective for FPS. Variants of enemy are poor, we have maybe six types of enemy without bosses. Maps are little. Our arsenal isn't impressive, we have a schematic weapons type, but in other, funny, skins. So much that interactions with the weapons is more interesting that shooting from them (yes, them because they have personality).
    Graphics is in cool style between comics and animations like Shrek, so it won't old. High on life has nice textures, good models and artists really did excellent work.
    Another important thing is sound, especially voice acting. Is one of the best acting from all vide games. Actors really know about what is doing on the screen, using a lot of expressions and we can hear a few voice from Rick and Morty. The voices fit to characters on the screen.
    So High on Life is really enjoyable game, can offer a lot of funny moments, but it's only reason that worth to play. If you don't like rude humor, sarcastic people, and unreal plot or if you wanna play in game with good gameplay it isn't game for you. Players who search more tangible world like Rick and Morty will be satisfied    … Expand

    Pros:
    Environment Design
    I can feel the environment is alive Colors Cons: Movement is not precise. When I turn back while I was moving forward, the player won’t stop moving forward for a split second There’s only 1 combat music for the Bounty Krubis chapter (first chapter). It would be great if there was at least 2 or 3 different combat music and we cycled between them    Pros:

    The combat game design is taken from Doom. We fight waves of enemies on specific points of the map    … Expand

    6,5/10 - Niezła
    (po graniu 12h i ukończeniu gry)
    Przeciętny gameplay, intrygujący świat, ciekawy humor i średni główny wątek.

    Humor nierówny, momentami rewelacyjny. Bywa niedostosowany do gry, przez co czasem nudzi - brak dynamicznego montażu, rozciągnięte dawki, za mało intensywne.

    Imersja i empatia przeszkadza - sytuacje czasem zamiast "zabawne" są smutne i szkoda osobiście zabijać tych błagających o życie.

    Dużo bluzgów, krwi i mogących wydawać się obrzydliwymi różności.

    Główny wątek fabularny zbyt uproszczony - niezbyt wciąga i kończy się od tak (ale warto odkryć dodatkowe zakończenie).
    Bohater milczy, a inni, w tym bronie, dużo do niego gadają.
    Czasem wybieramy co "powie" bohater i wybory mają znaczenie, ale zazwyczaj kosmetyczno-dialogowe.

    Świat ładny i kolorowy, ale bardzo mało lokacji i często do nich wracamy.

    Dużo niedoróbek.
    Łatwo zablokować się po 1h grania i tu wczytanie save'a nic nie da. Trzeba kombinować, wrócić się, wejść jak najwyżej i skakać bo skraju mapy... lub zacząć grę od nowa.
    Później bywają podobne błędy, ale przy nich pomaga wczytanie gry.

    Nieatrakcyjny system modyfikowania broni/umiejętności - tych opisów nie chce się czytać i łatwo przegapić ulepszenie warte uwagi.
    Modyfikacje broni bugują się przy każdym fabularnym odłożeniu uzbrojenia, czasem przy wczytaniu gry lub odrodzeniu po śmierci - trzeba je ściągać i montować w ekwipunku ponownie.    … Expand

    First hours of gameplay was full of funny moments, but while the plot progress it was getting more repetetive almost anoying. Combat was decent. There were many abilities that made combat dynamic, interesting and let you finish opponets in different ways. One thing is sure that this game is trully original.

El guión es lo mas divertido sin duda pero aun así te encuentras muchas conversaciones alargadas sin gracia ninguna como si tuvieran que hablar por hablar. La letra de lo subtitulos es muy pequeña perdiendote mucho de la conversación pero por lo visto han sacado un parche que lo mejora. Es un juego entretenido que dura unas 12 horas y por eso se salva. Si durara mas se haría muy pesado pero para echar unas tardes está muy entretenido. Al ser un juego barato y estar en el GAME PASS merece la pena probarlo aunque sea para un fin de semana aburido.… Expand

    Le jeu est bien moyen quand même.
    Les graphismes sont ultras moches et mal optimisés, la non-disponibilité de la VF c'est relou, les sous-titres se superposent on ne comprend plus rien.

    I've got it from Game Pass. The game looks really good and fun, and I've played it for about 1 to 2 hours and got bored with fairly uninspiring gameplay. Even though I like absurd humor, the one here was hit and miss to me, sometimes making me laugh, other time cringe.

    It's a pretty mediocre game with some funny premises and dialogues. The gameplay is very tedious though, the shooter aspect is quite poor, and the dialogues can be tedious to get through, can't skip lines and don't always know if you should wait for more dialogue or action. Someone on reddit recommended to watch youtube clips from the game instead of playing it, and that really says it all...

    Play this game only if you're interested in some Rick n Morty-style humor, and even that does not come close to Rick n Morty in this game.

    Gameplay is fine. Nothing is new. The shooting is fine, but there are a ton of FPS games much better than this. Metroidvania elements are also shallow.

    Overall just a "fine" experience. Not bad, but not great.

    The atmosphere, unfortunately, is the worst part. It's not tight, every joke the NPCs make are overindulgent with their timing, and you never feel that quick pace the TV show makes you feel. It's as if you have a bad comic take a set from a well known comedian and screw it up completely, and because of that screw up your realize that there was nothing particularly good about the material but the way the well known comedian told the jokes was the thing that made you laugh.

    Afterwards I thought that it was me. The world was no longer appealing at all so I figured I'd watch s06 since I was waiting for a binge to see it. The show is still great, unfortunately this game is not.    … Expand
