    One of the WORST auto checkpoint mechanic games I've EVER SEEN.
    Do NOT play it if you're an achievements hunter because everything requires NEW GAME FROM START.

    Game is pretty good.

    BUT! I was playing this on XBOX PC and none of the achievements popped, for me that was extremely annoying, I wasted about 2 hours of time in total trying to fix the issue with no luck.

    No fue mucho de mi agrado, tiene bonitos gráficos pero no logro atraparme, buen humor, gameplay muy estándar. Un juego acordé para las necesidades de los usuarios de Xbox.

    Juego para gente que no juega, la historia es una basura, las mecánicas de cuando mi amigo de jaen tenia pelo y encima es que es simplon y predecible, xbox una vez mas demostrando que prefiere cantidad a calidad por que este """"juego""""" no hay por donde pillarlo

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lame game, corny and childish dialogue. This game is obviously targeted towards a very specific audience and it was just not it for me. After I beat the first mosquito looking female boss I was just exhausted, such a drag. Points for uniqueness though!… Expand

    Got stuck in an infinite loading screen right before last boss. I feel like I wasted my time... Until is fixed, if ever, I can't recommend it to anyone. However, High on life Is a good game with a very specific taste of humor, either you like it on not. Enjoyable game mechanics and decent graphs. Plot is ok, nothing extraordinary.

    Literally the least funny/ most annyoing game ever. You have no voice yet the developer thought it was a good idea to let Morty scream in your ears for hours. There isnt even fun enemies to fight.
    The only thing it has going for it is the creative world design. But even that is just getting boring after a few hours. Even faster when you already know Rick and Mortys style.

    Full of insults to religions which is totally unacceptable.
    We were waiting for a good experience, not a game that is trying to offend me and my religion.

    This game is nauseating, legitimately. I tried to play and couldn’t because I was so nauseated, so I had to stop. Tried to watch a steamer play it and still nauseated. I am not sick, ill or anything of the sort. I was so hyped for this game because I love the style and humour. But it’s a hard pass now. Shame.

    This is the first game that has actually made me create an account and write a review because of how bad it is.

    High on Life was incredibly -boring- to play. I think i’d enjoy it more if I was braindead enough to laugh at Justin Roiland’s painful attempts at being funny by stammering every sentence in Morty’s voice. I was constantly waiting for it to get better but it just… never did.    This is the first game that has actually made me create an account and write a review because of how bad it is.

    As an enjoyer of Rick and Morty hearing the same voices saying the most random things all the time: I almost felt sad for the writers because it just seemed like the dialogue was terrible improv instead of actual comedic writing. Repeating “f*ck f*ck oh f*ck man that dude is totally f*cked like whoa” isn’t comedy and sadly the game is filled with a slurry of “comedic” lines to that affect.

    Breaking the 4th wall is funny when you don’t expect it but the game is just like any recent episode of Rick & Morty, obnoxious, unfunny and attempting to be meta by pointing out the joke or a trope while it’s happening. Very underwhelming.

    Even details like the interdimensional cable which is usually funny because of the limitless possibilities of scenarios and comedy falls flat and sounds like a middle aged man was given a podcast microphone and various psychedelics…
    Overall, i think it’s a waste of time and money, for us and them. The game is visually beautiful and the concept is amazing but the story and writing are terrible and it just becomes a glorified platformer with no sense of achievement since every “unlockable” is basically given to you…    … Expand

    Sem dublagem em português, ou ao menos uma legenda, é ridículo. O Brasil é um dos principais consumidores de games do mundo, merecemos uma atenção melhor.

    Cualquiera que no esté encantado con la idea de tener a Roiland hablándole constantemente al oído durante una docena de horas seguidas probablemente encontrará molesta la incesante necesidad del juego de imponerse al jugador.

    One of the worst games I’ve ever played. I noticed Xbox fans were definitely trying their best to hype this, and now that it has released, we know the truth- it’s bad. Very bad. The cringe dialogue was enough to make me stop playing it.

    Terrible game that is full of bugs and glitches.

    Avoid at all costs, unless you want to play it for many hours until you can't continue it because of a stupid glitch that makes a boss fight not trigger It happened to thousands of people, so don't thing it won't happen to you Against Skrendel, one simpe death then it's over Save your dollars, don't buy it and don't play it It's    Terrible game that is full of bugs and glitches.

    I suppose if all you had all year was pentiment and power wash simulator this would be a masterpiece.
    The reality is it's cringe filler for a rental service.

    High on Life is an enjoyable yet silly first person shooter that works on most levels. While the humour sometimes misses he target, for the most part it is quite a witty and humouress story with interesting protagonists and antagonists to be found along the way as you explore this immersive alien shooter. Definitely a game for those looking for something unique yet different in the first person shooter genre.

    Humor is sometimes tough to get right. You have to pace it right and you shouldn’t overdo it. Justin Roiland and co. unfortunately throw it at you in mindless spades and hope something sticks. And underneath it all? Just a very average shooter.
