May 14, 2015Players who love good old fashioned adventure games won't be disappointed if they give High Strangeness a chance.
-
May 13, 2015Fans of retro RPGs and Action-RPGs will find enjoyment here, but just don’t expect it to last very long.
-
May 9, 2015Perhaps if the game was stretched out to flesh out some thin plot points, or expanding on the almost non-existent world, the game would hold up better. As it stands though, High Strangeness feels like a game that was built around a novel idea and hurried to completion.
-
Jun 14, 2015While it does provide the player with something to look forward to, the game's lack of offer in terms of variety and sub-par visuals, along with a very shot lifespan, mean that High Strangeness will most likely not cause an impact with the vast majority of players, all due to its own flaws.
-
May 16, 2015Steven Jenkins does have some interesting ideas and he really should continue developing more because High Strangeness does show promise. Perhaps with a bit more careful planning and more focused management, he can deliver a game that satisfies all his narrative goals, since this seems surprisingly rushed.
-
May 6, 2015All things considered, I can kind of give High Strangeness a halfhearted recommendation; the soundtrack is outstanding and there are some clever story and gameplay concepts on display, just don’t be surprised if the second half leaves you feeling low.
