    This is the surprise hit of the year for me. I didn't know what to expect, but it's an absolutely hilarious game that made me very immersed. Fun action, good gameplay, incredible writing and characters, and I am not even really a fan of the creators, but they really knocked it out of the park with this one.

    This game was making me laugh out loud a handful of times, which is usually very rare for me in any medium (movies, TV, games, etc.) So I thought I should give it props by stopping by Metacritic to give it a solid review.

    Fun, vibrant world, gunplay better than I expected, and funnier than Rick & Morty (IMO obviously). I almost didn't try it after the hate it was getting on some /r/

    I struggled as to whether to give this game a “9” or a “10” and ultimately went with ten. It’s just too good to not reward even if I don’t think such a niche game can appeal to everyone that a “10” should. It’s amazing. FAR too much effort goes into dissecting whether it’s “funny” or not, which is largely beside the point. It’s like trying to argue about whether Earthbound is “funny”.

It’s not the humor, it’s the relentless creativity, self awareness, and genius e understanding of gameplay that, in many ways, could only be made by an industry outsider.

    I freaking loved this game and it’s heavy 90s influences.

    The game is crazy the amount of work that must have gone into making every second of the game interactive and responsive to your actions in incredible..And it's not just the insane, off the wall humour that Is great, the gameplay , exploration, world building all hits a high note. The weopens are like nothing else and they give the feel of amazing game like StrangersWrath..Only issues I had would be with the same issues literally every modern game has, performance and polish.. The game runs at 30fps on SX and has noticable graphical issues...To be fair, with motion blur 30 fps isn't as bad as some other games..
    Great game, don't listen to the always offended Journalist's, it's a crazy fun ride.

    1) I will miss it a lot, especially the characters.

    I finished High on Life yesterday. I did everything that the game has to offer and it was worth every second of it! If I can say 3 things about this particular one:
    1) I will miss it a lot, especially the characters.
    2) it's by far one of the best games I've played this year.
    3) it is what a video game should be.
    I can see this game getting a fair amount of negative reviews, although it is currently the most popular game on Game pass and also it's in the 3rd place as the most played game ever - again on Game pass. High on Life is quite similar in structure to old video games like Rachet and Clank or Sly cooper. You have worlds that you travel and visit often, each world is quite open and at the end of each one they have a final boss fight. You are a little kid whose mission is to "clean" these bosses and save the world from the alien threat. At your side you have different weapons that you get gradually and these come with different upgrades that you buy little by little as you progress through the game. The same weapons are 80% of the characters of High on Life since they are aliens who are able to speak and were made to kill.
    High on Life is made by the company Squanch games and the Co-Creator of Rick and Morty - anyone who has seen the series knows what kind of humor to expect here! I am talking about humor because the game itself is based on this and on the dialogues that the characters have with each other. Since we're talking about characters, I have to mention that I loved the whole cast, which, while it's not big, I'll miss them all - really, every single one of them. The Soundtrack of High on Life is also very strong, fitting, exactly what it needed to be to stick with the whole "alien world" theme.
    As for the story, as I mentioned above, we are dealing with an alien threat! We know more or less what to expect but the dialogues are so well worked, honestly you are never bored of it.
    Last but not least the game has a lot of easter eggs, so DON'T listen to those who say that its duration is 6-7 hours only. I was expecting that too, but in the end I needed about 15 hours to see everything. Trust me, finding its easter eggs, it makes the whole experience even more enjoyable so please don't ignore them.

    I recommend it 100% if you like games with dark/satirical humor and a structure reminiscent of the games we used to play as kids. It easily made it to my most favorite games list!!

    First single player game I've played in years that was enjoyable. I don't remember it being severely buggy and I was able to play it without wondering when the game would freeze and break. Sadly we probably won't see anymore of High on Life because of Roiland being a creep, but oh well I guess.

    Un muy buen juego, se agradece que salgan juegos solo para disfrutar y reir con la creatividad que tienen los creadores de videojuegos. Tiene cosas similares al "planet to a savage planet", juego que paso algo desapercibido, a pesar de lo bueno y entretenido que es.

    Simplemente genial,lástima que lo woke,y distintos colectivos clasistas y revistas compradas no lo puntuen como se merece.

    What a great game!! I didn't expect to find a game that draws my attention so much! I am 35 and its been YEARS since a game consumed my life for a few days and it was such a great time with this game.

    Loved the guns and characters- wish they had merchandise- would buy it in a heartbeat! Glad I got t9 enjoy this epic game and had to make an account just to sing it's praise! If I had one

    If I had one suggestion to improve this game it would be some sort of mercenaries mode using all your guns (like the final level)

    One of the best games I've played in a while. It actually worked on release date. I experienced no bugs and it was just a genuine good laugh. A nice change from alot of broken games that have been released the last few years.

    An amazing comedy game, just nothing like any other. If you’re looking for totally something new and refreshing in a game that’s just so worked out, try this.

    Such a long time since I felt happy playing some action/FPS game. I had fun and and it made me laugh. Sometimes it's like most games nowadays forget about what game are about, trying to force realism and moralism in everything, for **** reasons. Games are also supposed to be fun, creative, go beyond reality, reality is just a optional reference, not a rule.

Good visual and graphics, fun gameplay, I just missed more alien shapes for NPC's, like quadruped ones, more legs, less legs, more heads, different body shapes, etc, but it's fine, I can ignore that.

    You like the Humor of Rick and Morty? play this Game! Its the funniest Game since years. And the "Levels" let me think of my childhood, levels with cool and funny bossfights. Maybe more languages would be nice. But it is in English absolutely fine.

    I'm going to keep my commentary very brief, for me it's simply the best game I've played in 2022. I had fun the whole time, I laughed like never before in front of a game, so yes it's not necessarily the most intelligent humour, but that's okay.
    I recommend the game to anyone who is tired of the generic and conventional games we always have. I'm not a tester or anything, I just loved this

    Luego de los últimos parches el juego es una joya. Agrandaron los subtítulos. Me divertí como con ningún otro. Tiene mucho humor y la historia está buena. Me gustó el diseño de los personajes y las armas re locas

    High on Life works better as a sitcom about weird aliens than it does as an FPS. [page 46]

    Humor is the most important thing about High on Life. It single-handedly decides about how you will feel about the game. If it works for you, everything should.

    Mediocre shooter sustained by its incredible, gritty humour - but only if you're open to it.
