    It's repetitive, but the gameplay is still very fun. The humor is top notch and the characters are solid as well.
    Characters: 8/10

    Hilarious as hell and very creative, this sits in a class entirely of its own. Not your old school fps at all. Some of the comedic elements of the game had me in tears laughing, like the sock-puppet threesome. Gameplay, world and sound are all quite good. Some of the city locations could have been richer with more activity and NPC dialogue, but the whack writing and jokes balance that out.Hilarious as hell and very creative, this sits in a class entirely of its own.

    Ngl forgot I even played this game and didn't add it to my account. I played it a **** ton when it came out. Game Pass is a hell of a thing. But I had a great time with this game. The humor is my kind of humor. It's just stupid fun. The gameplay is nothing special at all tho. Like everyone else has already said, if you're a fan of Rick and Morty then you'll probably like this game.

    Not much to say the game feels very similar to Duke nukem forever just a bit more polished and Rick and Morty humor . Not a bad game but it can get repetitive

    Por mais que esse jogo não tenha sido legendado ou dublado é um jogo extremamente divertido e cômico. Merecia ser dublado pra que a gente entendesse um pouco mais das piadas.

    This is a solid game. The game is short and sweet. The humor is funny but the more you play the more it feels like the same jokes over and over. The gameplay is nice and the concept is super original. That was my 2022 GOTY. I dont think I would play a second time tho. I dont think it worth 80 bucks tho, but at least I played on the Gamepass so that's a huge +. I hope to see a High In LifeThis is a solid game. The game is short and sweet.

    Ideal to dive into his universe.

    The character is a drug addict, and his conversations with Rick and Morty-esque sci-fi are bold and silly. The gameplay is great, graphically very pleasant and what happiness in the game pass.

    Pour tout dire je ne m'étais pas autant marré sur un JV depuis South the Park stick of truth, de l'humour trash et méta du calibre des meilleurs épisodes de Rick and Morty.

    Mais le jeux ne brille pas que par son humour, on se retrouve devant un fps/mertoidvania dans la ligné des Metroid prime (voir plus récemment Savage planète) avec un level design efficace et un gameplay solide. D'ailleurs le gun felling est plutôt bon, ce qui n'est pas évident quand on se dit qu'on tire tout le long du jeux avec des **** parlants semi-rigides.

    Sur pc le jeux est plutôt beau dans son style (cad dire très cartoon et flashy), avec des animations de très bonne facture (on est plutôt au niveau AAA sur ce point) et une Opti au poil. D'ailleurs après les optimisation désastreuses des versions PC de Gotham Knignt, Darktide et Callisto Protocol, on se dis que certain gros studio devrait en prendre de la graine.    … Expand

    8 rating would be a stretch, but the Xbox series s version is a solid 6

    I am a big fan of Rick and Morty, so I loved the foul-mouthed guns and characters present in this game. I did have a few problems with glitches, i.e. getting stuck in the architecture where I used my jetpack too high looking for loot. In certain boss fights I also got stuck through no fault of my own because    8 rating would be a stretch, but the Xbox series s version is a solid 6

    I did have a few problems with glitches, i.e. getting stuck in the architecture where I used my jetpack too high looking for loot. In certain boss fights I also got stuck through no fault of my own because the next segment didn't load.

    The story is relatively short, bit there are weapon upgrades you can purchase if you return to the levels and find the hiddenboxes (some have collectable garbage pail kids type trading cards, some have weapon upgrades, some have straight money)

    Another issue with it is how they only have 4 weapons, yet instead of jusy mapping each to one D pad arrow, they only use the left and right arrow to cycle.

    I enjoyed the graphics, sound effects, and dialog, but the music was lame generic scifi.

    My gf loved all the colors in the game. A vibrant palate of purples greens blues and pinks.

    Thr enemies are covered in this goop that shields them. It reminded me of one of my favorite promo games ever, CHEX QUEST.

    I wouldn't have bought the game but I'm glad it was available day one on Xbox game pass.    … Expand

    Luego de los últimos parches el juego es una joya. Agrandaron los subtítulos. Me divertí como con ningún otro. Tiene mucho humor y la historia está buena. Me gustó el diseño de los personajes y las armas re locas

    Really fun and funny game. I don't like Rick and Morty humor, but this game really tickled my funny bone. The only real complaint I have is that this game's framerate is awful on SERIES X if you don't have motion blur on...Otherwise, my complaints only have to do with the game needing a sequel: more level variety, more guns, more opportunity to use the final gun.

    El juego es bastante bueno, fue un lanzamiento inesperado para mi. El humor era bastante aceptable, pero a veces forzado, también un poco de exceso de dialogo, ya por lo demás era muy disfrutable y divertido.

    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.
