    The game is one of the best narrative RPG with card-based battles I’ve have ever played. The story and most import, how you can build it with every decision, it’s amazing. I was waiting for a long time to play a game like this, even with the little customization (which it’s not bad) it’s impossible not to feel that you’re living and making your own choices.

    An amazingly written game, full of loveable characters where your choices matter and the story keeps you on your toes but also touches upon some heavy subjects. Also great LGBTQ+ representation including the ability to choose your own pronouns and appearance instead of a gender.

    I really liked this game, it was easy to understand, great story and beautiful art! I love story games but the ones I've played is either too fast and complicated or more of a book and no "game".
    I would recomend this game for those who like story games where your actions have consequences, If you like a game with good relationship story and just anyone who likes a game with a cool story.

    The story is super addictive with a brilliant card-based system challenges, pretty graphics and you'll definitely wish the game was longer once you've done it

    Games like I Was a Teenage Exocolonist are few and far between. The aesthetics are stunning, featuring eye-popping colors and gorgeous music. The story is intense, keeping you on the edge of your seat for hours on end. And the replayability factor is massive, with at least two playthroughs required for optimal understanding of the world and its inhabitants. I fell in love with every last character, their strengths and flaws often making them endearing — or, in the very least, human. If you want to live a multitude of lifetimes exploring a whole new world each and every time, I Was a Teenage Exocolonist invites you to become part of theirs.

    I Was A Teenage Exocolonist is very replayable and has enough original aspects for us to recommend you to give it a try. Although its mechanics lack depth and its plot takes some time to kick off, the game is worthwhile, not only for its vision of what adolescence feels like, but also for its beautiful illustrations and soundtrack.
