    After "The Last of Us", it's the most amazing thing I've ever played.
    If you want action from a game, this game is not for you, but if you are looking for a good story, "Life is Strange" is a good choice.

I can say that this is the only game which has ever made me cry and i love it for it. I can’t wait to play this game again when the remastered collection of it comes out
    SPOILERS INCLUDED FROM HERE
    + Amazing Soundtrack
    + Interesting characters + Overall Unforgettable story + The endings themselves were beautiful. I personally didn’t sacrifice Chloe in my playthrough but when i replayed it and sacrificed Chloe it made me cry.
    - The game has only two endings and basically your previous choices didn’t matter at all.
    Overall a lovely game which i will never forget. Looking forward to play it with better graphics when the remaster comes out!    … Expand

    This game has broken me more than once (damn you dontnod!), the art design is stunning and the story is emotional, mysterious and will leave you gripped until the very end, but my favorite aspect of this game is the wonderful dynamic of its protagonists: Max & Chloe.

    Lo que menos me gusto de este juego fueron las expresiones faciales, esta bien, es un juego muy barato en donde las expresiones fueron hechas a mano en una computadora, pero hubiera estado bueno que los personajes tengan mas vida, ya que los movimientos del cuerpo no parecen naturales y sus expresiones pareciera que fueran robots.

The "sacrifice Chloe" ending was the only time I have ever cried because of a video game.… Expand

    Life is strange is such a beautiful game, because it talks about loss/ grief/ going back and forth... and pictures it with the butterfly effect. Yes, it has a big flaw: the characters act too much like teenagers... that it becomes quite cringe. But the plot twists are good, the characters are endearing... and the final is very emotional.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Life Is Strange is a great game with interesting puzzles in its gameplay due to the time-rewind mechanic, accompanied with an emotional soundtrack.
    The characters are the focal point of the story and the animation quality emphasises the expressions and actions of the characters. Chloe and Max are wild and likeable people and them, along with Nathan and Mr Jefferson propel the intimate story further.
    The main feature of the game is the consequences in the choices you make, and while most don't affect the plot too much, I like that the ones that do are binary and converse. Speaking for myself, I tend to weave around choices when I'm given them so I can get the most value of what I've been presented, but Life Is Strange prevents that and forces you to pick one or the other and it encourages you to seriously think about what you want to do, and I like that aspect of the game.

    Life Is Strange is an emphatic experience that shouldn't be missed.    … Expand

    The Bad:
    - Not all voice acting is good - some minor characters sound very flat and acted, not natural like Chloe and Max.
    - Not all endings are satisfying. I give you that much. One ending definitely feels more canon than the other.    … Expand

    Life is Strange ist nicht nur eine populäre Coming of Age Story, sondern in seiner Machart in vorm der genialen Verknüpfung von Inhalt und Spielmechanik, auch ein kleines Kunststück des modernen Adventure Genres.

    In der Tradition moderner Adventures, wie wir sie von Telltale oder auch Quantic Dream kennen, erschöpft sich das Spielprinzip hier zum Einen in der Interaktion mit der Umgebung, zum Anderen im Dialogsystem, mit welchem die Geschichte voran getrieben wird und wo wir als Spieler auch Einfluss auf das Geschehen nehmen können.

    Besonderes Spielelement von Life ist Strange ist zudem die Möglichkeit in jeder Situation die Zeit zurück drehen zu können. Das heißt, wir können gegebene Antworten oder Interaktionen nach dem Ausführen nochmals überdenken und gegebenenfalls wieder rückgängig machen, sollte uns der Ausgang der Aktion nicht gefallen. Der Clou an dieser Mechanik ist, dass Dontnod diese unglaublich geschickt auch mit dem Storytelling verknüpft. Unser "Zeit zurückdrehen" wird nämlich auch zum wesentlichen Moment der Storyentwicklung und kann Reaktionen auslösen, die wir im ersten Moment überhaupt nicht überblicken können. Im Zusammenspiel mit den glaubwürdigen, sympathischen Charakteren und den hervorragend geschriebenen Dialogen, schafft Life is Strange so eine Dramaturgie, der man sich als Spieler nur schwer entziehen kann.

    Life is Strange gehört sicherlich zu den wenigen Kleinoden der Videospielgeschichte, die es wirklich schaffen einen emotional zu berühren. Allein deshalb muss Life is Strange in dieser Liste auftauchen und sei jedem empfohlen, der statt Action auch mal ein gutes, innovatives Storytelling zu schätzen weiß.    … Expand

    Honestly, I expected a boring teen drama with superpowers, but the story appeared to be quite mature and engaging. Sometimes it's a bit cheesy, but in the next scene you are shocked by it's seriousness. The plot is much better than most of Netflix series and may be inspiring, especially for younger players. I had fun collecting photos in this beautiful game.

When I started playing this game I thought I might've made a mistake, cos it felt a bit teenage girl-ish, lolz. But it didn't take long for me to become absorbed in this story, and from then on I couldn't get enough of it.

    Really loved this game, and it's kinda perfect for a gamer like me. U can limit the level of interaction to what's necessary to allow the main story to progress, or u can look at and interact with everybody and everything, if u so choose. I played somewhere in between.

    I enjoyed this thoroughly as a passive sort of experience, but I didn't mind that there was some level of challenge here and there. I thought the overall gameplay was great. There were a few moments though where I was like 'is it really necessary to have to do this? That's just silly', in regards to some of the puzzle sort of parts of the game.

    Life is Strange is a masterpiece, this, in my opinion is one of the only good games DONTNOD have made. Episode 1 and 2 were definitely not as good as 3 4 and 5. I believe this is due to the fact that the game is trying to introduce Chloe to the player and due to this the story was sacrificed a bit making the first 2 episodes felt weaker, but not bad by any means.

This game is the definition of symbolism. It's everywhere! From the first to the last choice you make. This is definitely a game for people who don't like action sequences where they have to chase people. There are a few action things every once in an episode but the entire thing about the game is that the main character, Maxine Caulfield, has rewind powers, which is another interesting point. This game does a lot of justice for those who are obsessed with getting everything on a flowchart. Life is Strange doesn't show your choices on a flowchart, though, but you're able to try out almost anything. I say almost because you can't exactly rewind mid-conversation. Only after an interaction is done. So, if you're someone who wants to see every possible outcome of your actions, this is the game for you. Max even encourages it. After each big choice made, Max encourages the player to REALLY think about their choice. "Aw man, blah blah blah. Should i rewind and blah blah blah?" So get ready to tell Max to be quiet every once in a while lol.
    The graphics are OKAY. Nothing too great. The art style is amazing, though. It's a good thing we're in 2021, because a remastered version is supposed to come out soon. If you get this game in 2021, there are going to be some glitches, but nothing that's too bothering. Sometimes it's actually quite funny. Won't spoil anything, but the game overall is a suprise, whereas the plot has many suprises too. The reason why I say that is because people don't usually suspect anything exciting for this game. I mean, what do you expect from a teenage rebel (not really teenage... the characters are about 18. Which means... college?? O_O) and the shy, nosy student? The game goes way differently than what you'd think.

    One of my top 5 games. It really hit my heart and made me cry. As someone who knows how loneliness and depression feels, this game really made an impact. Loved it and cannot recommend it enough.

    Ein sehr berührendes episodisches Drama. Tiefe Charaktere und eine spannende Story stellen die Spieler*innen immer wieder vor schwierige moralische Entscheidungen. Hinzu kommt der wunderbare Soundtrack, der fast zu Tränen rührt (8/10).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. É um jogo de impacto totalmente diferente de outros do estilo, consegue ser bonito e divertido, mesmo com uma escolha gráfica de cartoon com uma jogabilidade mais fixa e lerda. A história é o ponto forte do jogo, onde escolhes impactam nela diretamente, tudo é bem explicado e encaixado, cada detalhe das escolhas que eu tomei, foram cruciais para a história, principalmente ao tentar salvar a Kate do suicídio. Realmente a jogabilidade não é o forte do jogo, mas é agradável da forma que ela funciona, não precisa de inimigos, armas, barra de vida e estamina para o jogo ser bom, basta o estúdio que o desenvolve saber o que quer com o jogo e trabalhar nisso da melhor forma. A grande falha do jogo está nas texturas, apesar da escolha gráfica ser de cartoon, muitas cenas aparentemente apresentam um borrão na tela, como se tivesse uma lâmpada no rosto das personagens, além da falta de movimentação do cabelo!… Expand

    Trama muito boa e com vários plot-twists, escolhas que realmente interferem na história.

    A stellar example of story telling and a proof that there are no limits of what videogames can achieve. If you like telltale, you will love this! If you like great stories and characters, you will love this! If you have a heart, you will love this!

    Quick background on me the reviewer, I tend to like single player games that is heavy on narrative the most. I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s rare for me to get into a multiplayer game.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (8) Very Good. Innovative, but perhaps not the right choice for everyone. This score indicates that there are many good things to be had, but arguably so.

    An interactive teen drama story that touches time travel, mental illness, high school, suicide, online bullying and storms. If you care about gameplay stay away but if you like story games, give it a try. Has a good soundtrack and good characters.    … Expand

    A trama é interessante, o que acabou não me prendendo tanto foi o enredo adolescente saturado pela Netflix, de resto é legal. O jogo é subjetivo para cada um, a experiência única é o ponto mais forte do jogo, em geral os personagens são bem construídos dependendo da sua perspectiva e o final é interessante e parece complementar a história do primeiro.

    Just wow! Not a lot of words after playing it! Emotional, it is the least i can say.
    Being recent in Psychology studies, i can see this game as an incredible tool to help surpass feelings of loss and help understand certain "injustices" of life.

    This game is powerful.

    For some reason, even though that's my second playthrough, I can stop being emotionally damaged by this game. Actually, knowing some stuff about certain characters made some minor decisions harder. The difference they made objectively was not high, but your perception around it is what really matters. Making someone laugh, feel motivated, or pissed. You feel all of this with them, and I love this. That's only possible because of how sensitive the creators were and how amazingly developed and relatable the characters truly are.

    Talking about sensitivity... hands down. That is one of the best soundtracks ever selected. OST included. I could listen to the main theme for hours. This game would not be that good without those tracks.

    But it is perfect? no. But that was the dev's fault? Also no. The graphics and other technical elements could be better. Facial expressions feel off sometimes and clearly characters could not express themselves the way they should. Obviously, that's a financial problem, so it's understandable. And, at least, the actors nail it. Amazing performances.

    I only had one problem, the ending of the game.
    It didn't live up to the hype and tension they were building in the previous episodes.
    It felt really simple and predictable and wasn't really that emotional probably because of the dialouge.
    But overall a wonderful game and it's worth playing a second time to see the other outcomes and choices.    … Expand

    An honest, sometimes even painful, story about friendship and finding yourself. Life is Strange is played with a lump in the throat and its ability to make a grown man tear up is its true "power".

    The Limited Edition of Life is Strange doesn’t introduce anything new. The graphics are the same, as well as individual episodes that form this wonderful adventure. The art book and soundtrack are still a nice plus that could push some collectors to purchase this edition.

    Despite its obvious flaws the reactive story and compelling characters make this one of the best storytelling experiences of the current generation.
