i cried so much playing this, the story, the choices, man i was so attached to max and chloe :( the amount of detail that went into making this, ill forever be amazed, i love the game so much
(spoilerless)
Absolutely loved this game.
The atmosphere, the aesthetics, the music, the choices, the character and her surroundings.
It's just a beautiful work of art.
Seriously, if you're on the fence on buying it or not, simply play the first episode that is free. If you digged it, go ahead. No way you'll regret it after that!
Enjoy the journey.
My brother introduced me this game. He said, “try play this game, I bet you’re gonna like it”. And yes, I love it. I become immersed in the story, characters, landscape, soundtrack, everything. Here I am now in LiS universe. My brother passed away 3 years ago. Everytime LiS released something new, I’m excited and miss my brother. Thank you for making a beautiful game. And beautiful memories.
Genuinely the best game I have ever played all year long. From the art style of the game to the visuals and storytelling, the game is absolutely fantastic and is a great way to get started with storytelling games. It is very easy to get connected to each and every single character in this game and this has been the only game that has made me cry 2 times in a row back-to-back.
The music for this game is absolutely fantastic and well composed aswell. I highly recommend this game for anyone wanting a story game. For its time, it is genuinely very impressive and it holds up very well. Simply incredible, 10/10.
Its such a beautiful game, I don't know what to say tbh.
The characters are well written, the setting is cool with the whole school stuff and the bound you develope with these characters is insane.
I love them so much and the story broke my heart several times
My first impression of the game was how artistic it looked. The game had a clear art direction, and it was pretty indicative from the get go. It is something I appreciate, as much as I appreciate any games that do not shy away from their art direction.
For the first 20 – 30 minutes of the game, nothing really hooked my interest. The game tried with its introduction, but it used a familiar trope used in many story-rich games. However, sometime in the story, the game revealed its core mechanic which tied closely into its story (rather to its genre: ‘Choices Matter’). It is a mechanic that I haven’t really seen used before, and the developer masterfully weaved it into a story-telling tool. One that can only be achieved by video games. I am hooked completely.
I think Life is Strange was ahead of its time. While it is more common for game today to tackle sensitive issues, I don’t think this was the case back in 2015 (maybe I’m wrong? Feel free to fact check me). It is these sensitive issues that add a lot of depth to the concept of ‘changing a fate’. It truly left you wondering what sort of things you’d do if you do hold such power. I pondered a lot after I finished a game, but this one struck me in the middle of my play through. Psychologically, the concept introduced by Life is Strange is so intriguing that I started to question the nature of choices and life. By Episode 2, I was left wanting more.
Sometime in the middle of the play through, I felt that some scene were written without much purpose. I thought that it was only inserted to highlight the core mechanic of the game. And to some extent, I felt that it was gratuitous. However, I really didn’t expect for the game to throw a curve ball at me. As I completed the entire play through, I realised that no scene in this game served no purpose. I think that was the reason why this game is so loved by many. There were so many layers in its story, each written in an intricate details. Those very details and compelling characters were what made this game very relatable.
One of the best story-rich games out there. And most definitely, the best game where choices truly mattered.
Great story! I didn't mind that the graphics feel a little outdated now, it truly felt as if every choice mattered. Recommend if you like storytelling games that entice and surprise you.
I got really into this game when I was in high school. I think this series overall (to my knowledge) gets a lot of criticism for its writing and performances, and while those comments aren't completely false, there is something about the complete game that makes you roll with it. I enjoy the performances, and while I won't pretend the writing suffers on occasion I will stand by my belief that the cast is giving effort and genuinely cares about the games. The story in this first game is one of the strongest in the series, and Max & Chloe are the biggest characters of the series for a reason. If you don't like the tone of this game or this style of game, this one will not change that opinion. In fact it will likely greatly reinforce that distaste.
One thing I will say about this series (not sure if all the games do this but a lot of them do) is that I don't like the episodic releases. I think the idea is cool, kind of like waiting for the next week's episode of a tv show, but I think needing to pay for each part of the game is a little strange (haha), not to mention that the episodes released months apart, which seems a little clunky.
Overall, my opinion about this game is very high. I like this series and have a lot of nostalgia for this first game. If it seems interesting to you, definitely play it! The story is interesting and has some crazy twists. I think for people who like these games that are mostly digging through plot to uncover secrets/a mystery, this will be a great game for you.
I don't think I've come across a game quite like this, it's beautiful and was way ahead oh its time, it talks of serious issues yet still manages to hold all of them together to create a perfect balance. I can't recommend this game enough and this is the first review I've ever played. I will be buying and playing double exposure asap I hope they continue this franchise and keep the amazing story line work as it's absolutely stunning.
Played this game five years ago and loved it. Replayed it this year and guess what, I love it even more. Amazing game, always will be.
Absolute cinema. This game is so much darker, intense and emotional than I remember from watching playthroughs of it all those years ago when I was but a young lad. A must-play for anybody that enjoys choice-based games or a good story in general.
I love the storytelling, characters and animation. It's very grounded in reality, but with flashes of supernatural elements that keep it exciting and so fun. 100% would recommend!
A fantastic story game, and the best in the franchise. The characters all feel so real and unique, and the choices often feel difficult. Lots of ethical dilemmas.
*Life is Strange* is an experience that sticks with you (at least I hope so)
It actually inspired me to get into photography back in 2015, which is something I never thought I'd do. It's also the first game I've ever fully completed, unlocking every achievement on both PC and PS4. Beyond that, it was the game that brought me closer to my little sister. Even though we don't talk as much now, the memories of playing it together still mean a lot to me...
The story is so well done, with characters you'll genuinely care about and moments that hit hard. It's a game that stays with you long after you finish, and honestly, I still find myself thinking about it. Every time I play through it, it feels just as powerful, and I know I'll never forget the impact it had on me <3
It took me a few attempts to get into Life is Strange. Being in my 40's I kept writing it off as some sort of pretenious teenage angst simulator. I am so pleased I gave it another try and proved myself wrong.
Episode 1 starts fairly slowly and I wasnt such a fan of the american art college life that takes up a lot of the episode. However once Episode 2 hits it just got better and better every episode. After an hour of playing I thought this game was a 3/10. After finishing it I would give it a solid 8/10, Fantastic story and great characters.
this game is prob one of my fav games of all time. I love the characters, the story, the art style and THE MUSIC SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was never planning on playing this game until a random afternoon on November 30th of 2024. The only exposure I had to this game is knowing relatives or friends having played this game. Upon entering I knew absolutely nothing about it, and expected nothing. Nonetheless I was immediately blown away by the art style in the very first minutes of the game. I was driven away by the delicate and vulnerable yet exciting feeling of playing as Max who is ironically beginning a new future for her photography career at the highschool in the hometown she's returning to. The environment makes you feel like the new kid at a school and has you eager to explore what your new school and personal life has to offer and catch up on everything you missed in that small little town. The moments where you establish where you stand with everyone and vice versa is something you'll keep to yourself and make personal the entire game. Reuniting with your childhood bestfriend is like connecting with your other half that you can't go without throughout the entire game. Life is Strange is one of the few games that has actually made me feel emotion and made me show interest in this game. I was easily able to title this my favorite game of all time just shortly after playing it. 10/10.
This game has been part of my life since it's release and has influenced my life in so many ways. I wish it was possible to go back and replay this game for the very first time and get that feeling again. Just amazing.
One of the few games that make me feel empty after the credits roll. Emotional damage/10.
One of the most beautiful and moving games I have ever played. It makes me feel painfully nostalgic for experiences I've never even had. The game developers display a mastery in an art I've never heard of and that I can't even begin to express. No other game is like this.
The game is longer than my playtime. Sometimes I stall out in the last 10% of great games because I can't bring myself to finish them. I stalled out at under halfway on this one. Its incredible.
Max, the most selfless character , she herself despite having these powers she wants to only use them for good. Helping those around her when she uses them for herself it's literally just trying to make friends because she's so shy. Max never wanted to do anything bad unless Chloe pressured her into doing it.
I however do not like what they did with Max in the new game .
i honestly LOVE this game so much, the characters and the story is / are so well written, ep 4 or 2 probably being my favourites 🤑
the plot twists and foreshadowing is insane, overall amazing game!!
play it if you haven't already ;3
I slightly regret that I haven't played it earlier. For me, it was worth every cent because this is one of the games that I just don't finish and move on to the next game like nothing happened. To admit, I often felt really sorry. This game left me with unanswered questions, like what happened after Ending A Saving Chloe (Sacrifice Arcadia Bay) or how the game could look if we choose Ending B Saving Arcadia Bay (letting Chloe die at the beginning) , which opens a completely new timeline parallel to the game. I have to say that I have experienced zero bugs in the original version, whereas the remastered version has a few bugs. Other things I have to add are that I love the soundtrack, the voice acting, and the graphics; it fits so perfectly together. This game also has replayability value because of all the different choices you make that actually matter. This is one of the best games I've ever played!
i had to go on a whole ass expedition irl to purchase this game behind my parents' back, i do not regret it and that alone should make a point
my view of life is not the same anymore.....
wowzer.
(i love you pompidou)
What an emotional journey! While the game is rated here for ages 12 and up, I believe its themes and narrative depth make it more suitable for players 16 and older. The topics explored are intense and can be overwhelming, even shocking, for younger audiences. These elements add to the game's impact but also call for a level of maturity and emotional readiness to fully process and appreciate.
This game challenges players to reflect on their choices and the consequences that follow and offers a deeply personal and unforgettable experience, exploring themes of friendship, identity, and morality.
Every choice in Life is Strange matters. Even the seemingly minor decisions can ripple into significant consequences, making players acutely aware of their responsibility. The game doesn't shy away from presenting difficult scenarios, often forcing players to confront their own values and priorities. It masterfully demonstrates how the weight of choice shapes not only the story but also the player's emotional connection to the characters and world.
Life is Strange is a rare gem that stays with you long after the credits roll. Its ability to evoke genuine emotion, foster empathy, and provoke thought is unparalleled in gaming. While I firmly rate it a perfect 10/10, I urge caution when considering it for younger players. This is not just a game—it's a lesson in humanity, and some of its lessons are as beautiful as they are heavy.
Thank you.
Replayed this game after I overheard that some fancy new game LiS: DE had ruined my Chloe.
I understand that Max & Chloe cannot be together in LiS: DE, but at least with a decent excuse... For instance, Chloe felt that she could never repay Max for saving her, nor could she forget that Max had sacrificed the whole town, including Chloe's family. Unable to deal with this contradiction, Chloe sorely chose to leave in peace.
But LiS: DE just presents some nonsense drama, which can never break up real Max & Chloe. Damn U.
And M & C were not some 'high school sweethearts', they were friends/lovers for life who had gone through an incredible journey for like a thousand years.
I bought this game because max's voice makes me want to end my life. Originally it was calming now shes just infuriating. 10/10 not ever gonna finish.

Just emotional and such in-depth plotline with the characters. The game really captures on the butterfly effect for the smallest choices that we make in-game.
A bit of a walking simulator at times but it's pretty good overall. Even in 2024 the old graphics don't really drag the game down. Fully voice-acted is the main draw, making the characters memorable. The story is OK but honestly a bit convoluted as far as the time travel aspect goes.
The achievements all unlock, it didn't crash, and it's easily playable with keyboard & mouse. There's very minimal fan service, so as long as you don't go in expecting any erotic girl-on-girl action, you won't be disappointed. It's not that kind of visual novel. The sequels are apparently a lot worse so I'll not be getting those.
Great game, great story, the graphics don't hold up as well almost 10 years later but they are still nice in their own timeless way.
I recommend getting the remasters though, when they are on sale, a better deal than buying the OGs separately.
As soon as i played the first episode I knew I have to get the full game.
Life is Strange is one of the best decision based story games. Every choice you make matters and develops the story into what it becomes in the end of the story. This is a well produced game with beautiful cut scenes and animations. Not to mention the concept of the characters and their connections. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys a good story mode game with decision based choices that will deeply impact the story line.
gen one of the best games ive played in my life. its so addicting. amazing story and the fact that what u choose through out game changes the story.BRILLIANT
SUCH AN AMAZING GAME!!
It changed my whole life, honestly. Yes, the dialogue is a bit cringe but honestly it's what makes the game unique and itself. The fandom is also SUPERRR nice and amazing!! Plus talented, check out the ticktocks of the game if u haven't already!!
I love this game SO MUCHHH and I'd do ANYTHING, literally ANYTHING to play it for the first time again!!
Ready for the moshpit shakabrah
Being 13-16y/o: OMG LIFE IS STRANGE IS THE GREATEST GAME EVER
Being 17-22y/o: Cringy game, outdated dialogue, forced choices, full of plot holes
Being 23-80y/o: OMG LIFE IS STRANGE IS THE GREATEST GAME EVER
Returning to Life is Strange after seven years feels like stepping into a mirror of real-life experiences. The game’s themes of care, regret, and the weight of choices resonate deeply, especially when reflecting on complex relationships. It’s a reminder of how decisions, big or small, can ripple through our lives and others.
The struggle to 'save' someone, the desire to make the 'right' choices, and the parallels between the characters and people in real life is profound. Life is Strange beautifully captures this emotional weight, forcing you to confront that not everything can be fixed, and that some choices are not yours to make even if you don't like the ending.
If you’re suffering from escapism, this is the game to face your emotions. 10/10 I wish they made more games like it.
An amazing and captivating story that has gripped me. Just finished playing Life is Strange: Before the storm which adds a new depth to this game
Genuinely the most devastating, inspiring, well put together story I have ever seen in a video game, and the only video game that has ever been able to make me cry and genuinely reflect differently on my life. Also the only game that has made me want to replay it over and over again to get every possible path instead of just looking up an alternate ending. Truly inspiring and a fantastic use of the reversing time mechanic, perfectly linear and sensible cause and effect. As well as the beautiful BEAUTIFUL graphics that perfectly compliment the flawless sound design. Incredibly Immersive. Cannot talk up this game enough. Highly HIGHLY recommend.
This game you follow Max a local fenthead studying at Blackwell, Oregon.
During this story you play as max during one of her many highs
Great story, interesting "rewind" mechanic.
Imagine the walking dead season one, but change Lee into a white women and make her scared of everything, and make the choices matter more and you got Life is Strange. And of course minus the zombie apocalypse, and blasting the bad guys in the face. This game was fun and had a good story and the ending hit hard with that soundtrack, I'll probably forget this game in like two years or not at all thanks to The Walking Dead which was the soul reason I got this game in the first place. Lee Everett and Max Caulfield are some pretty memorable characters each one has there moments that make you cry or laugh.
A great choose your own adventure (of sorts) with a cool time twist!
This game is a masterpiece, The masterpiece. Music is absolutely amazing, The Art-style/Graphics fit really well. Voice acting of both Max and Chloe. The tears when Chloe was crying about Rachel.
The only sad thing is the rest of the series couldn't compare to this game's glory. Especially the new game double exposure, it can't even compare to this masterpiece it is a sad thing to see.
Incredible game. Episode 1 absolutely hooked me and I was more than willing to pay the 20€ for the rest (Hell, I would've paid more, at least after playing all of it.)
I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a great story experience. It has a very bittersweet ending which makes me sad that it never received a proper sequel, though I naturally understand that it would've been nigh-impossible to import and react to every decision made in the first game, plus it would've been basically impossible to play for anyone who hasnt played the first game. All in all, highly recommend, and though it looks like the original studio is now defunct and Square Enix is dragging the series through the dirt with Double Exposure, I do hope we could at some point get a proper sequel and continuation to this story that has left me longing for more, even though I know it almost certainly won't.
Solid 9.5/10 from me (I am not very consistent in these ratings, but it's damn good.)
This game is excellent in quality, story line and even interactive. Oh and I've loved the soundtrack so far, have it as a play list.
life is strange is one of those story-games that's so memorable and heart-warming, playing as the awkward, photography-loving, nerdy max caulfield makes you want to try your hardest at picking the "right" choices the game gives you. there is some plot holes and questionable moments that make the story seem flimsy (in my opinion), but that doesn't take away from the feeling the game gives you. from the atmosphere, sound track, etc, it can only be described in one word: nostalgic, the whole game gives off that "early 2000's" vibe. I easily give life is strange a 7.5/10.
This is a magical game that is well worth playing. I highly recommend the original over the remastered as it has a better feel to the game and the graphics look very nice, even if characters are not as expressive.
Life is Strange is a story-driven game where your choices impact the narrative. Even if you aren’t a gamer, I still recommend this game, as it doesn’t involve challenging mechanics. It’s full of memorable moments, highlighted by an incredible soundtrack that perfectly captures the game’s emotional highs and lows. The cast is well-fleshed out, where each character has their own flaws and strengths, adding depth to everyone—from the side characters to even the antagonists, showing that people aren’t one-dimensional. How you interact with certain characters will shape their fate and reveal more about who they are. The emotional weight and moral dilemmas of your choices can leave you feeling conflicted, making the game truly unforgettable.
Recommended if: You’re looking for a game that will pull at your heartstrings and make you ponder the consequences of your choices. Life is Strange is a must-play if you enjoy emotional storytelling and character-driven experiences.
Not recommended if: You’re not a fan of "teen" dramas. Your enjoyment will depend on how much you connect with the main cast, who are mostly young adults with complex flaws. If that type of story doesn’t appeal to you, this game might not be for you.
This game is amazing. This is one of the best if not the best story game i have ever played in my life. I love the quarry, Detroit become human, and until dawn, but nothing tops this game. From the character interactions, the story line, the dialog. Everything in this game is amazing. Please please please play this game if you are intrested.
A Hauntingly Beautiful Experience
Rating: 9/10
Life is Strange is a masterclass in storytelling, character development, and emotional depth. The game's unique rewind mechanic adds a fresh twist to the traditional narrative format, allowing players to relive pivotal moments and experience the story through Max's eyes.
The game's themes of loss, grief, and self-discovery are expertly woven throughout the narrative, making it a relatable and impactful experience for many players. The characters are well-developed and complex, with Max's relationships with Chloe and other characters feeling authentic and genuine.
The game's atmosphere and sound design are also noteworthy, perfectly capturing the feeling of a small-town America in the early 2000s. The music is catchy and memorable, with a soundtrack that perfectly complements the game's emotional moments.
If you're looking for a game that will challenge your emotions, make you laugh, and perhaps even inspire you to reevaluate your own life choices, Life is Strange is an excellent choice. Just be prepared for a wild ride that will leave you feeling invested in the characters and their stories.
Pros:
Engaging and relatable storyline
Well-developed and complex characters
Unique rewind mechanic adds a fresh twist to the narrative format
Atmospheric and immersive sound design
Cons:
Some minor pacing issues in certain episodes
Some characters feel underdeveloped in certain aspects
Recommendation:
If you enjoy narrative-driven games, character-driven stories, or are simply looking for a game that will tug at your heartstrings, Life is Strange is a must-play.
