    One of the most carefully crafted games I've played. With a great, engaging story and good character development, episode 1 had me wanting episode 2 right from the get-go. If the other episodes are half as good as this telltale inspired episodic drama, then we're in for a treat.

The plot is very good and has the potential to be a very impressive story.

    I really enjoyed the high school problems, even being a cliche its made in a different way than the usual thanks to the possibilities of change the course of action and I hope the next episodes will bring the impact of the choices in the first chapter.

    The soundtrack is amazing and I'm not ashamed to say that I bought the game thanks to the trailer and the soundtrack in it. The graphics are beautiful and not too heavy, there is no try to make a perfect graphic, instead there is an art concept and is gorgeous.

    I know its only the first chapter, but I'm too anxious to the next to come, please March come fast!    … Expand

    The closest you get to a Western slice-of-life game. A solid mix of and interactive film and a slice-of-life game with more gameplay and dignity than Telltale titles, decorated with powerful cinematography and ambience.

    It was described as a game about choices and consequences with "multiple endings".

    They were dealing with the consequences of choices well in the first 4 episodes.

    Until they give you just 2 obvious choices in the last minute, making you wonder what was the point of playing because both of them make all your decisions irrelevant.

    This is an example of a game that takes many disparate supposed influences, then implements all of them badly.

As usual with my reviews, I'm going to start off with the aesthetics of the game, then talk about the writing and dialogue, then conclude with mechanics, then summarize. Let's get started.

    First up, Life is Strange's design choices look like something that was put together by someone who has only experienced American youth culture secondhand. It takes extreme examples of some icons, then copy/pastes them together in some "hella" strange mixture of stereotypes that sort of belong in a satirical movie, ( which, in my opinion, this "game" desperately wants to be, but we'll get to that later.)
    You have the hipster teacher, complete with the stereotypical thick glasses, the well intentioned white knight Warren, Chloe, then of course, Max Caulfield. All of which would be great in a movie like say, Junebug. I find it rather flat and uninspiring. But hey, looks aren't everything right? Let's move on. The animation and graphics are quite dated looking, and the interface felt clunky.

    So let's talk about the writing. It bills itself as inspired by Twin Peaks, Donnie Darko, Groundhog Day, etc, yet captures nothing of the charm of any of those movies. The dialogue once again, felt like a satirized version of something someone heard that one time, from that really obnoxious teenager in that one movie. The dialogue is pretty cringey, and the portrayal of a lot of the characters in the game left me feeling no sense of attachment to any of them. I wonder how badly you have to miss the mark, if you have to bill yourself more to fans of movies, rather than gamers? I digress.

    Mechanically, again, the game feels clunky, it's a mess of casual pandering QTEs, and falls into some ridiculous adventure game tropes, which is odd, considering how much the marketing is billing itself as more of an interactive movie than as an actual game.

    So to summarize, I feel like this game is simply attempting to pander to the Telltale market, but ultimately fails to find anything in common with that demographic. If you're a fan of walking simulators like Gone Home, you'd probably find a lot to like here, but for a core gamer looking for something to actually play, I couldn't recommend spending money on it. There are better games out there with time rewinding mechanics, if that's your hook. I give it a solid 4 to a 5 at best. For fans of the genre only.    … Expand

    As you first boot up the game, the loading screen advertises a strong, deep story and meaningful choices. In my opinion, the game is only partially successful in those two endeavors. Sure, we come to like and dislike certain characters, and there's a lot of juicy drama and character building going on, but oftentimes the storytelling came across as something written by an amateur. TheAs you first boot up the game, the loading screen advertises a strong, deep story and meaningful choices. In my opinion, the game is only partially successful in those two endeavors. Sure, we come to like and dislike certain characters, and there's a lot of juicy drama and character building going on, but oftentimes the storytelling came across as something written by an amateur. The script is very accessible and emotive, but also comes off as melodramatic (especially so in episode 5) and falling prey to cliche stereotypes (episode 1 and 2).

    When it comes to the visuals, the game sports a kind of cartoon like art style, which I can't help but feel is Dontnod's attempt to offset or cover up the otherwise poor texture quality and non-existent lip syncing. It looks adequate at best, but its nothing special to gawk at for sure. Sound design is pretty good, with solid voice acting and suitable soundtracks playing for specific scenes.

    Episode 1 and 2 mainly serve as an introduction to the world of Arcadia Bay and its inhabitants. Every now and then, we also get to play around with time travel in order to explore different outcomes and solve little puzzles. It's a neat little mechanic that nicely accompanies all the walking and talking. The pace of these first two episodes does a feel a bit slow though. The plot only really starts to pick up during episode 3 and 4, which I consider to be the strongest episodes of the game. Beneath the peaceful veneer, lies the darker side of Arcadia Bay and its the job of you and your BFF to piece together what's going on.

    Lots of tension and anticipation is built, which to my disappointment feels rather wasted in episode 5 when the 'big' reveal is made. It throws out a whole lot of contrived revelations without proper explanation or any convincing reason. In its rush to conclude all the plot points, the game lazily confers a big chunk of its storytelling responsibility to this abstract and supposedly deep concept of "chaos theory" and "it's destiny". After a contrived dream sequence, the game ends with a binary choice that as implied by the episode title should've left me polarized. Well Dontnod, I'm afraid to say that I was not polarized at all and the choice was a very easy one to make.

    Overall, get Life is Strange if you like character progression, drama and Telltale-like gameplay, but don't expect to be impressed by the underlying narrative and poorly dealt with themes.

Also I feel the story of Rachel Amber could have been handled better. The lip syncing was also not perfect, although it was improved upon it still is a little disjointed at times. Also the ending is probably the biggest issue given that all your choices are ultimately pointless as you are given two choices at the end that does not change regardless of your decisions up to that point. For a game that appears to be giving this much weight to your choices and how they impact other characters, it was quite disappointing.
    But that being said, the game is really, overall a beautiful game. The art for the game is amazing and I absolutely love the feel that it gives. Also the interaction between characters is really what drives the game. It feels real, and even though I am not a female teenager, I was able to relate to the character of Max. The time travelling aspect, although unexplained did add an extra element to the game that was refreshing and helped make the game feel more like a game rather than a story.
    The game focuses heavily on the friendship between Chloe and Max and it helps you build a connection to both these characters unlike any I have previously experienced within a game. The fourth and fifth episodes were the most emotionally challenging experiences that I have ever encountered in a game. I have never cried in a game, movie or television show before yet for this game i genuinely wept. The characters of Chloe and Max were crafted beautifully and you can understand what the writers were trying to achieve throughout the last two episodes which makes the emotional impact very saddening, but it not gratuitous. Although Chloe and Max was certainly the focal point of the narrative, the interactions between other characters made the game more emotionally intense and more relatable.I could keep going on about how beautiful this game is, but I feel like it really does need to be experienced.
    I had a difficult decision deciding what to rate this game, because I believe it is truly fantastic and one of my favourite games ever because of the character interaction and the time travel mechanics. This game has an intense emotional impact that really resonated with me, however it does have some glaring. Overall, I recommend this game but with caution because I was feeling the effects of this game months after I had finished it    … Expand

    Here you play as aspiring photographer max… she has a vision of impending doom for the town of arcadia, and soon after she discovers she has the ability to rewind time after she saves her best friend Chloe from being killed…
    The game is spread up into 5 episodes, and each episode does a great job of leaving you wanting more and feeling like self-contained stories…
    You feel like you’ve accomplished everything in each episode.. none felt filler
    You do play as a high school senior, and the game does a great job of feeling like you’re a high school girl, dealing with bullies, dealing with students having crushes on you, balancing friendships… and dealing with some pretty heavy emotional situations you’d expect from a bunch of high school kids
    if you have a heart, you will cry playing this game, multiple times…
    Where things get interesting is the rewind ability…
    This is still an adventure game but not a nonsense adventure game…
    it’s pretty easy knowing what to do in a situation, though one puzzle in a later episodes gets a little too complicated and slows the game down a bit…
    But puzzles are found both in the environment and in dialog…
    As you have to make sure you don’t say the wrong thing to someone while trying to get information out of them that you need…
    or if you don’t like a reaction they had, you can rewind time and try something else…
    As well as outcomes of a few important situations.. The game will indicate that a choice you made will have consequences and you can decide to deal with those consequences or go for a different outcome and deal with tem... but by time you learn what these consequences are, its too late to go back and change... so while I was worried at first.. This makes your decisions and choices still matter in the game…
    much like the telltale games, I wasn’t a fan of the sections that I had to walk around and interact with items in the environment…
    Most did add to the story…
    But a few did annoy and frustrate me and felt like they were there to just drag the game out
    10 hours of pure story though... definitely does get exhausting…
    so this isn’t really a finish in one sitting kind of game.. especially with the at times poor pacing…
    but the story telling here is so good that even if you do get tired you want to keep pushing to see what’s behind the next corner and what twist the game is going to throw at you next…
    People have been recommending this game to me since it came out, and I’m glad I finally got around to experiencing it
    The gameplay isn’t the best, but the powerful story telling makes Life is Strange a must experience game…

    I don't usually play videogames so that's why I'm so late. I really enjoyed this game because I think I've never played something like this. The plot is really interesting and making decisions is a very unique idea, in my opinion. The only thing I didn't like much was that sometimes the game lagged and I had to restart, but aside from that, really good.

После такого, конечно, хочется окунуться в подобные игры с головой, но, наверное, это единственный такой представитель! Лучшая игра, в которую я играл за последний год - точно! Сочетание прекрасной рисовки с превосходнейшим сюжетом... Я бы с удовольствием поиграл еще в игры такой франшизы и очень надеюсь, что разработчик на этом не остановится, ведь есть результат. По крайней мере, бешеное количество положительных отзывов об этом говорит и мой не станет исключением.

    Всем, кто еще не играл в эту игру - настоятельно рекомендую установить первый эпизод, он бесплатный и покажет вам всю прелесть! Хоть это и верхушка айсберга, но этого достаточно, чтобы полюбить эту игру также, как полюбил ее я! Спасибо разработчику и издателю за проделанную работу и за то удовольствие, которое я получил за эти 17 часов, тем более, я в состоянии реабилитации после небольшого игрового кризиса, в который меня загнала парочка компаний (в этом обзоре хочу говорить исключительно о положительном, поэтому продолжать не буду xD ). Цена этого продукта просто смешна, она действительно того стоит!!! Если вы думаете, что ваши удивления закончатся первым эпизодом и жалеете свои денежки на остальные, то вы очень заблуждаетесь, господа. Каждый эпизод полон сюрпризов, переворотов и самых неожиданных событий, все они очень разнообразны и по-своему хороши, в особенности, собственно, могу выделить пятый, который можно было разделить на парочку отдельных игр. Не каждый проект может похвастаться таким разнообразием. Повторюсь, что я в полном восторге! :-)
    Единственное, что подводит, это концовка, которая ставит огромный крест на отношениях в игре, т.е. как бы я не выбирал ответы в диалогах - в конце все равно я увижу лишь одну из двух концовок... а жаль, бюджетненько... Но это не мешает ей быть шедевральной!
    В общем, вы услышали мой месседж, я ставлю игре уверенные 9,2/10 с намеком, что готов отдать свою первую десятку, но поберегу высокий балл в надежде, что какой-нибудь еще шедевр сможет меня также приятно удивить!

    PS к этому обзору отлично подходит фраза "нет слов - одни смайлики", которую Максин пишет в одной из своих записей. Я действительно не нахожу слов, чтобы передать свой восторг. Наслаждайтесь :-)    … Expand

    One of the very best and most memorable gaming experiences of my life. I played it in 2015 and I can't get it out of my head to this day and probably never will. The characters, the story, the music, the atmosphere, the world created in game. Everything is perfect. I don't remember being so moved multiple times during walkthrough in ANY other game I played in my life. A masterpiece. Can'tOne of the very best and most memorable gaming experiences of my life.

    Life is Strange tells a story about Max and Chloe's journey to finding out the secrets of Rachel, a dear friend of theirs. The game has great graphics, underscores the touching theme of friendship, and the twist is so thrilling it even bests many movies.

    Life Is Strange is an imperfect video game and the actual mechanics of playing it, including the time rewind, can become annoying of frustrating, especially when the development team tries to borrow from another genre. But the game makes it easy to create a connection with Max and to care about her choices and trials, a rare feat, and that means any fan of narrative-driven experiences should try it out to see how he deals with the feelings of the protagonist and the impact they have on Arcadia Bay.

    Life is Strange is flawed, but this paranormal coming-of-age story is nevertheless refreshing proof that small stakes can still feel important, given strong characters.
