An honest, sometimes even painful, story about friendship and finding yourself. Life is Strange is played with a lump in the throat and its ability to make a grown man tear up is its true "power".
The Limited Edition of Life is Strange doesn’t introduce anything new. The graphics are the same, as well as individual episodes that form this wonderful adventure. The art book and soundtrack are still a nice plus that could push some collectors to purchase this edition.
Despite its obvious flaws the reactive story and compelling characters make this one of the best storytelling experiences of the current generation.

Trama incrivelmente emocional, estética indie cartoon única, personagens memoráveis e uma soundtrack ABSURDAMENTE ENVOLVENTE. Definitivamente um dos melhores jogos narrativos de todos os tempos. É cômico pensar em como podemos conhecer obras que nos marcam profundamente apenas pelo acaso. Já se passaram anos desde que tive meu primeiro contato com a franquia, e ainda é inexplicável o sentimento quase hipnotizante de se entregar à história. A atmosfera acadêmica jovial e as conversas secundárias trazem um ar indescritivelmente acolhedor e nostálgico, além das temáticas extremamente reais que cercam a narrativa: luto, depressão e dor, mas também amor, amizade e pequenos detalhes que enriquecem esse clima de serenidade — tudo contribuindo para uma identidade visual e emocional inesquecível. Recomendo a todos que curtem o gênero a darem uma chance (Obs: se possível, não comprem a versão remaster, a original é mil vezes melhor). "Queria ficar neste momento para sempre... mas aí... não seria um momento." - Life Is Strange.

What a journey. One of the best narrative driven games with twists and turns throughout. The character arc is in full swing and an absolute masterpiece of storytelling. You care about the characters and want to see how it ends. Can’t say enough about this game. For what misses in graphics is more than made up for by good story telling and quality characters. Don’t sleep on this

Lesbians, Time travel and Awkward jokes. This is my comfort game, I have played it like 6 times and I still enjoy getting to the end.

From its opening moment until its final scene plays, Life is Strange is a wonderful, beautiful, captivating, touching adventure built upon the undying friendship of two girls trying to find their place in the world.

With tremendous cunning, Dontnod’s game moves from a teenage super-power fantasy toward a comment on our universal wish to repair time.

While it isn’t perfect and there are limitations evident in each episode, Life Is Strange sets a new precedent for episodic gaming and reiterates why it’s a bona fide contender for 2015’s GOTY, despite facing fierce competition for that distinguished accolade.

The greatest strength of Life is Strange is that the excellent character work, supernatural twists, and serene environments manage to overcome any technical issues. It was easy for us to get hooked on guiding Max through this tumultuous time in her life, and the ending left our hearts and minds drained.

Due to excellent voice performances, a mysterious, sleepy little town that has plenty of intrigue and secrets, the added benefit of some exploration, and the undeniably appealing rewind feature, the game has a unique and extremely absorbing feel.

Life is Strange fails to execute in critical spots, but it's beautiful world, fun time-reversal, and honest look at adolescence makes it a game worth remembering. A diamond in the rough.

As a whole series, Life is Strange has been an intriguing and emotional experience. The rewind mechanic is an intelligent inclusion to the interactive drama genre and gives the impression of having significant control over the narrative. That said, there's certainly an argument that player choices have all been leading to a singular binary decision which somewhat softens the finale's emotional punch.

Life is strange is a strange game. Following the friendship of Chloe and Max was enjoyable, i just feel like the words "Best" and "10/10" has a lot of weight. Weight that this game simply couldn't balance out. Don't get me wrong this game is undoubtfully great, but it left me wishing for more. As spoken for one of the best story games of all time, it's honestly disappointing.

Not that good. LIS is an okay game, the story is nice for the most part characters were okay some maybe good but its dissapointing. Now this game is fun but not really that good, it tells you constantly about choices and consequences but they dont matter too much no matter if you abuse time travel or not. The arguably better ending is the one where your choices literally dont matter. I know a bit of the point in these games like telltale ones, is that the desicions help you to get more inmmersed more than anything, but it wouldnt **** that much here if the ending actually showcased how the other desicions affected the rest. The whole point of the game is the story and while i will say that i consider it good, i wont say its among the best ever, personally chloe wasnt that memorable as a character, max is pretty good tho, almost everyone else is pretty much forgettable, the antagonist is good but there werent any real clues aside from 1 conversation and having an incredibly keen eye in some parts of the game. As for the rest, i liked quite a bit the artstyle, ost was good for the most and for the price it aint bad (on sale)

Fun to play-through, but quite a quick play. Graphics for playing it now just don't hold up. Overall, good story, decent dialogue and characters, and an overall too short experience for what they could have accomplished.

The story is too juvenile to keep me interested in the game mechanics, which are quite interesting, and I quickly became bored. I felt like I was being forced to watch a teenage drama.

SummaryLife is Strange is a hand drawn work of art and every action enacts a butterfly effect - but with the power to rewind time, what would you change? And would it turn out to be a change for the better or worse?
