I love mewing to skibidiii!!!!!!!!!!! tumma tumma nimeni on tumma. i love mewing. fanum tax GYAATT!!!!!!!!!! Pinjalla on iso gyat!!! i feel so sigma skibidi mewing to among us r34.
don't know why I bought the game, didn't even finish it. it's a good story game to watch i guess so far 5/10
This game is fine, despite some canon inconsistencies with LiS1. I did enjoy seeing Rachel for the first time and more development for Chloe, though.
The post credits scene is straight up just vile.
A hauntingly beautiful soundtrack paired perfectly with this tragic yet beautiful story; I knew what was coming and it still took my breath away.

Review - 6/10 - Moody teenager simulator, Chloe is annoying AF
Difficulty - 2/10
Hardest Achievement - Nothing really difficult as its just collectables , use a guide.
This game is a prequel to the original Life is Strange, featuring Chloe, the secondary protagonist from the first game. If you’re new to the series, I’d recommend playing the original first, as Before the Storm reveals details that spoil character relationships and plot twists.
For those who have played the original:
I was initially skeptical about a prequel, especially since we already know where certain characters end up. I was worried that knowing their fates might take away the tension, but I was pleasantly surprised. The game is filled with emotional moments that are heightened by an amazing soundtrack. In particular the final choice, presents a powerful moral dilemma.
I also had concerns about Rachel Amber. In the original game, she was a mysterious figure, only seen through others’ perspectives. I was unsure about her being featured so directly here, as it risked losing her mystery. However, the Rachel we meet didn’t disappoint. While she isn’t quite as enigmatic, there are still plenty of mysterious, unanswered aspects to her— like whether she have superpowers she’s unaware of.
On the downside, there are quite a few continuity errors in the storyline that don’t align with the original timeline and events. Rachel’s family also feels somewhat out of place, given their absence in the original game.
Overall, Before the Storm is a touching prequel that holds up to the original’s standard in emotional depth, music, and symbolism, though it could benefit from better consistency with the first game. Still, it’s an impactful experience—especially for fans of Chloe and the original series.
A short but enjoyable prequel to Life is Strange. If you liked the first game, then it is worth picking this up.
No deep plot in the game, just another story of lesbians.
The one searching for something relaxing yet captivating story driven this is surely the game to go but be sure to play life is strange first to get sense of event much better
Life is Strange: Before the Storm does a fantastic job
Life is Strange: Before the Storm dives back into Arcadia Bay, but this time, we see it through Chloe Price’s rebellious eyes. The prequel does a fantastic job exploring Chloe's complex relationship with Rachel Amber, blending teenage angst with raw emotional depth. Deck Nine's storytelling feels natural and heartfelt, bringing out Chloe’s vulnerability and resilience as she grapples with loss, identity, and family conflict. The game’s art style is familiar, yet fresh, using muted colors and detailed environments that heighten the sense of melancholy and nostalgia.
While it lacks the time-rewinding mechanic that defined the original Life is Strange, the "backtalk" feature allows players to engage in witty, tense confrontations that suit Chloe’s personality. The soundtrack, featuring Daughter, perfectly complements the mood, adding layers to each scene. Although it’s shorter, Before the Storm doesn’t feel rushed, delivering a gripping narrative that deepens our understanding of Chloe and Rachel's bond, making it a must-play for fans of the series.
Very disappointed, not worth the money. There is no game play, there is no challenge, you just sit and watch a sloooooo playing movie, 2 thumbs down.
It had its great moments, but also quiet a lot of bad ones. What annoyed me the most though was how openly abusive Rachel was to Chloe without the game ever trying to acknowledge it and portraying it as if its a completley normal and healthy relationship. I also do not like the background of the game- the original developer team of LIS1 being forced, by their supporting company, to make this game against their artistic visions, just as a cashgrab to get that sweet sweet Chloe-lover Money. If you want to play it because you like the charcters and want to learn more about their past, go for it, but I'd wait for a sale first.
Great Prequel to LiS 1! Would recommend to every LiS fan :D
Peak is Strange: Before the Storm,
+ the story is good
+ the characters are pretty good
- says that it runs natively on Linux but it crashes after starting and no solution on the internet helped me
8/10
What an amazing game. I'm sad it was only 3 episodes when Life is Strange was 5 episodes, but this game made me wanting more because it was so good. I was so attached to Rachel like how I was attached to Chloe in Life is Strange when I played as Max. The story was insane! I thought I had it all figured out but then the game threw another curve ball. This game is amazing and SPOILER ALERT it kills me to know that Rachel ends up dead, as we've seen in the first game. I chose to protect Rachel from her father's secrets because I wanted her to have a happy rest of her life since I knew she was going to die soon.
i never feel emotional when i play games but this one i felt emotional through out the game was very good it was interesting i loved the story the characters was more interesting it was perfect and i want more continuation 100/100 best game i played
I feel like most people give this game the short end of the stick, this is effectively one of the best life is strange games, and for a prequel is amazing. We know close to nothing of Rachel in the original game other than that she was missing and whatever Chloe is willing to share. You learn her fate only after completing both games, you need the end scene of both games to piece together what happened to her, and it also invokes that feeling "What if I was here earlier". Super amazing game, Plus more Chloe.
Effective prequel to Life is Strange 1 that sometimes lays the drama on just a little too thick.
Short but really good story, I liked the fact that we can see a little more about Chloe’s past, gives you an excellent idea of how the story with Rachel Amber’s background is for the next game (LIS1), being a prequel makes this an enjoyable story, damn I don’t know man how much I love Chloe in LIS 1, but having this game makes it completely worth the time, if you liked the story of Max and Chloe, you will definitely love this game
A nice add-on to the original game that adds significantly to Chloe's character and raises the stakes on Rachel Amber. If you picked Chloe, pick this game too.
Oh, and be nice to your mom. She's trying her best.
Bought it in pre-order. I paid for it from my first salary, first played on shitty laptop with 10fps, but I still loved every frame of it 😅
Game obviously for fans of Chloe. It shows how her teenager rebel phase started, what caused it etc. Also Rachel is alive in here so yeah.
Lesbian simulator 2 (or 0,5 cause it's a prequel)
uhm 10/10 🌈
This game makes me so violently ill oh my god😭😭
Nothing new compared to it's predecessor, no powers now, not very interesting story, for me... it lacks a strong ass kicking hero defeating bad guys... just not my cup of tea
the ffarewell episode was so unnecessary sniffles sobs squareenxi wehn i get u i stg i swear....chloe....chloe u deserve sm.....
This is probably the 2nd best behind the original, Rachel and Chloe are like bread and butter. Perfect for each other. Though, LIS 1 kinda changed Rachel's character a lot but this prequel was not planned at that time. (Hopefully that's correct)
This game was so different from the first life is strange but not in a bad way!
Seeing Chloe's past with Rachel is such a good experience!
Another beatiful and very sad story.. I wish we will have something more about Rachel later, very interesting person. In terms of story-telling this is 11/10, as was first LiS, but I think gameplay is not that good. Cryed some tears during the play, Chloe destiny is too sad
very good, story very good, characters very good, music very good
An excellent prequel to the original Life is Strange, featuring a compelling and emotional story, great characters, and an amazing soundtrack.
Cinema. cant wait for LIS Double Exposure coming out in 18 days
Most soul crushing beautiful game ever, I love every single life is strange game but this one hits really good, could play it over and over.
so emotional and a great story especially after the first one but i feel like you could play this one first and it would also work really well
Life Is Strange Before The Storm was a fantastic game. The story was great. Graphics looks the same as Life Is Strange. This game is prequel and you play as Chloe Price. Max best friend. Well, she is being mean to anyone sometimes. I like her, tho. She is a great character, but I don't like she is being mean to anyone sometimes. Kinda shame that, Chloe doesn't any power. Only use argument with other people. I think it's her superpower. The writing is heartfelt, and every character feels complex and relatable, especially Chloe Price. Her rebellious attitude, grief, and pain are portrayed so authentically, making her journey with Rachel Amber both captivating and heartbreaking. The dialogue was fantastic. The relationship between Chloe and Rachel is the heart of Before the Storm, and it’s handled with incredible care. The game explores themes of loss, love, and self-discovery in a way that feels deeply personal
The story of the game is very exciting and has a lot of decisions that are really difficult and fun to decide. In my opinion it is one of the best ~Life is Strange~ parts, actually I was very sad when it was over since the story was really good <3
The greatest gift man has created is the Life is Strange series
This game is so perfect. It's one of my favorite story games so far. It's a cute little lesbian game, and the storyline is so amazing. Though I wish the game were longer, I highly recommend buying this!! It's worth every cent.
i thought it was okay. Definitely not as enjoyable as the other life is strange games, i struggled to immerse myself in the story like i've done with the others. i found it a bit of a chore to finish
I played this game 2 times, got the bonus episode and I can say that the writing is just not what you want. I'll start with something positive that this game did give us some important context about Chloe's homelife. Other than that? This game is just a major missed opportunity.
It feels like they made this game because they felt like they HAD to make a game. Voice acting is below average at important moments, plot is generic and medicore at best and horrendously forced at worst. It feels like this game had NO idea what it wanted to be, no idea what it wanted to say or do.
Nice adventure, prequel of Life is Strange, exploring the life of Chloe. Full on the teenage drama, it upholds the value of the main game. A good DLC, worth its playtime :D.
great interactive story telling
4/5

My own rating criteria:
1: Terrible; 2: Average; 3: Good; 4: Awesome; 5: Miracle.
I enjoyed the story, though the original was still a bit better (maybe just fresher?) but enjoyed this one never the less.
Such an amazing game, loved seeing the world in chloe's POV this time.
this game is absolutely life changing, i love it. SO WORTH THE MONEY. i def reccoment the other life is strange games aswell, they are all fantastic
Life is Tumblr: Before the Shit-storm
If you thought Chloe was annoying and insufferable in the first LIS, get ready for Rachel Amber. Hyped up from the previous game to the heavens, it turns out she is a manipulative, self-absorbed narcissist that lashes out at everyone when she does not get what she wants. Chloe is basically just a mindless puppy that does everything what dear Rachel wants and just gets herself deeper and deeper in shit. The two are walking train-wrecks; I guess they deserve each other.
The bonus episode is very bitter sweet, but is sadly buried behind an atrocious price model: You can’t buy the bonus episode on its own, you have to shell out the 10€ extra for the deluxe “upgrade” which is just clothes you can play dress up with, and the bonus episode.
Yes!! We’re back with our favorites! Life is Strange: Before the Storm is such a fantastic addition to the series. I’m always ready for another game from Dontnod, and this one certainly delivers.
The storytelling is great as usual, providing special moments that deepen our understanding of the original game. I loved exploring Chloe’s character and her relationships, which added so much depth to the narrative.
Good Story, but play it before Life Is Strange Season one... so you cant be confused when you play LIS 1...
This game makes the plot in Life is Strange 1 so much more heartbreaking. I should have played this game first to really understand the characters in LIS 1. Ouff Amber, I fell in love with her, with her story, her radiant personality and unregulated moodswings. This story on love, and/or friendship is wholesome and beautiful, but also filled with violent and suggestive adult content. Just one thing bothers me... Did Amber cheat on Chloe with Frank? In LIS 1 they did hang out but after LIS:BTS it does not feel very probable #plothole!
----------------------------------------
Achievements/Completionist: Too easy!
Play this game if:
- You want to get moved, laugh and cry along with the characters
- You want to hang out with schools most beloved babe, Amber
- You want to really understand the characters, theis struggles and thoughts in LIS 1
Do Not play this game if:
- You ain't in the mood for sentimentality
Verdict: 8/10
amazing game, the story is beautiful. id recomend playing this before the main game
Such a fun story and choices are cool, too. The story telling is impressive.
