Since I was hooked on the first Life is Strange game, I also took the opportunity to play this game. Just like the first game, I was really hooked on its story. This time, less cringe and more compelling character development. DontNod Entertainment never fails to amaze me. I cry on the ending, to be honest. LIS3 Here I come! **VISUALS** _Artistry: 8/12_ _Technical Merit: 7/8_ **SOUND DESIGN** _Music: 12/12_ _Sound Effects & Vocals: 7/8_ **INTERACTION** _Control & Interface: 6/8_ _Player Agency: 8/8_ _Accessibility: 3/4_ **MECHANICS** _Feedback & Fun: 7/10_ _Depth: 5/5_ _Variety: 4/5_ **CHARACTER** _Narrative: 8/8_ _Heart: 5/6_ _Originality: 5/6_
I really liked LIS2, but liked #1 better. #2 is full of emotions just like #1. I liked the story of Sean and Daniel and their road trip adventures. There are many twists and turns. They portray a pretty realistic brother relationship- especially at their ages. I did feel the story dragged on in different places. I often just wanted them to get to Mexico already. I felt #1 offered more choices overall, and it was a better paced story. There wasn’t a lot of extra downtime. But if you like LIS then you should play #2. It’s worth the ride with the Wolf brothers.
to rate this game.
