Review of Life Is Strange

At first I thought they were teens written by 30 year old game devs. But in reality these characters would absolutely talk like 30 year old game devs because they’re just that uncool. And I love them.… Read more

This game is terrible

It's a complete mystery to me why people think this game is good. It's dialog is terrible & it's main characters of Max & Chloe are downright dislikable. It's too bad there wasn't an ending wh… Read more

I got this as a steam gift from a friend. I did not know much about this game but I liked what I saw in the Quick Look of it and I requested that that game should be my gift. I wanted an episodic adve… Read more

Great original story

How strange that I thought the story was great, yet I hated pretty much every character in it; I'm just so disconnected from the teen life and it's shocking how hard that hit me playing this. If you'v… Read more
