Ascension: Deckbuilding Game Comes To PC. Yes Now!
Life Is Strange is a choice-based game in which players assume the role of Max, an awkward, shy high school teenage photographer. After returning to her old hometown, Max makes a startling and world changing discovery: she can rewind time. But with great power comes a great responsibility. There are no ‘correct’ narrative choices in Life Is Strange, only consequences of greater or lesser strength. The game hopes to capture the awkwardness, uncertainty and sheer magic and energy of nostalgia; of those all those times we wish we could take ‘it’ back. Whatever it may be.
Dontnod, who also created the brilliant Remember Me, showed off an in-depth demo of the title back in October at the New York Comic Con. There was not a single person present who was not in awe of what was displayed.
My birthday is January 28 and I know you have all been wondering what to get me. May I offer Life Is Strange as an option?
