Fans of Life is Strange
Please No Money only Free please
Not worth it, Trust me.
Now dont get me wrong I love life is strange especially before the storm, It has characters which u can relate to, and choices that actually matter not like most “choice based” games where ur choices dont actually matter, It has mid writing, I purchased every episode and I had to replay the entire game about 1-2 times because it kept crashing and lagging, Not worth it Also the storage is really bad and huge, I recommend just watching someone else play it, Please don’t waste ur money on this.
its a good ahh game
ive played life is strange, LIS before the storm and LIS 2 they are all fun i just wish you didnt have to pay for episodes bc im broke but i love watching jay kubz scouts play it
??
Weird controls, unlike the other life is strange games you have to pay for the episode or you get a really short demo, mental I just wanna see amberprice
eh
It’s a good story if you want to learn more about chloe, but it’s pretty buggy. i’m playing on mobile and the movement controls are super hard. there’s no built in joystick like the first game and you can only tap to move which takes a while to get where you want. And changing the pov by dragging the camera around barely works.
Game
I like this game very nostalgic yfm ngas playing ts back to back
I would like to buy it, but until I see good reviews I will not
Fix your games everybody says bugs and glitches man please this is my favorite game
Glitchy
I love this game so much it’s amazing and the storyline and information you get on Chloe’s past and about Rachel is so good but it is so glitchy characters will either glitch and be in the wrong spot it they will just completely disappear this is my fav game so I really hope it gets fixed
Major Bugs
The story was amazing but on the 3rd episode it stayed “corrupt data” and it deleted all my 8 hours of progress which is BS.
Love the Game, but it glitched out
I love this game and I especially loved life is strange!! The only problem is when i played this like a year or so ago, i got to a certain part where Chloe has to fix her truck, but it won’t show the button I need to proceed so ive never been able to finish it :( so a bit disappointing
操作太垃圾了
不如正传
Difficult to operate
The game looks good, but the anti-human operating system made me give it up. The person who designed the operating system had better let him experience the game completely！
Terrible game and just want money
I paid for the entire package and now I still can’t get it I have screen shots showing that I purchased it but still can’t play
don’t waste money on this!
so i’ve played the first life is strange with max and chloe and ive already played this one, both on ps5, but i wanted them both on mobile and i got them both, all episodes.. but this is just insane. episode one when chloe is talking to david his jaw is just like VERY low and opens like some creature when he’s speaking and it’s terrifying, then his eyes even glitched like his eyelids would go all the way up and his blinking was super off. throughout the whole episode it did that with david. then in episode two when characters would be talking they wouldn’t even be there in some of the scenes or would glitch and just be staying still when they wouldn’t even talk or one time rachel was talking and she was in the floor, now i’m on episode three and i’m trying to get out of being stuck in the phone when giving evidence to damon about the money he’s asking for, i sent the picture and went back on the phone but it glitched and now i’m stuck on his messages all zoomed up. i just think this could’ve been way better and taken more time on making. it’s terrifying and terrible.
so glitchy you can’t finish the game
I’m only giving this 3 stars because I love life is strange but I can’t even finish the game . When you have to fix the junkyard car it won’t let u do anything with the fuel filter , you can’t finish the game because of that .
Yahoow
It’s a thrilled series with classics with life is strange continsum
DONT BUY
do not waste your money on this. the graphics are BAD, and super glitchy. like some of the characters arent on screen when they should be, and when they talk their mouths dont open and it like glitches really bad. the controls are hard to navigate. its tap to move and bad sensitivity. you CANNOT adjust the controls in settings at ALL. this really doesnt give any new information on racheal. the whole game is slop. your choices genuinely have no effect on the game play. its such a messy game with 0 thought put into it.
just needs to fix the glitches!!!
everything was perfect besides the glitches, which drove me a little insane. love this story. def make sure to play the first one (LiS) before this one!! makes for a better experience imo!! just fix the glitches pls so i can see more of my wife, rachel amber 😣😣😣🙏🙏
buggy
too many bugs!! every time i download to try again it always gets stuck at the part where chloe is fixing her car up. it’s so annoying because i can get past the other bugs but this completely makes it impossible to continue in the gameplay it’s so frustrating please fix i love this game so far and i loved life is strange 🩷🩷🙏🙏🙏🙏
They definitely put this game out to fast.
The details in this game is all out of wack and wish they took the time to put it together nicely instead of it looks like they rushed it together unfortunately, Chloe could be talking to Rachel and she’s not even there when she’s talking to her or Chloe step douche as she says lol, His face all went oddly when Chloe was talking to him like his mouth was oddly talking it was weird, I wish you all took the time to put this game together instead of rushing it to get it out there overall love the game and the story. I have played the Max & Chloe stories and love all of the series of Life Is Strange.
(Childhood memories flooding back)
Just like skybound’s TWD these didn’t get the love it deserved!
Controller Support Please?
They didn’t put the same care or attention into this port as they did with the first game. Couldn’t even be bothered with adding controller support either. I’m tired of this trend in gaming, the lack of passion from the studios.
needs a joystick
i think the game itself is beautiful but this one needs a joystick like the original life is strange mobile. it’s kind of annoying trying to navigate and then press a button then it moves to a place that i didn’t want to go. when all what i was trying to do is press the button, i just dislike the tap to move the game should have an option to change that. the game is so nice to not have an option like that
Unresponsive Purchase Button
The game itself is great but, when I tried to buy the full season, nothing happened. Neither the buy episode or full season button worked. Please fix this. I really want to play the game.
why?
why do i have to buy ep1 ? its still a great game but that just ruins it for me
LOVE LiS but lots of glitches
Been playing all the lis games for a while and the glitches do happen but they don’t affect the gameplay at all. I think sometimes it can be weird but they aren’t really bothering me. Definitely not as hard as LiS it’s a good level of solving. Also, I spent my money on the first episode to not waste my money all at once, but when I got to the bonus episode I had to pay $8 for the whole pass (already bought all of the episodes except for the bonus) but it’s whatever. Just don’t make us pay again, LOVE THIS GAME ANYWAYS.
Movement
I can’t believe that I wasted my time the whole needing to tap to move killed it I could barely touch the dang people to talk and even connecting my controller to my phone didn’t help. I can’t tap on the screen without it sending my to a different location not as smooth as the first one
Yassss
The dialogue is kinda embarrassing but its a good game. I wish they could get Life Is Strange 2 on mobile though.
Can’t connect to game controller
Can’t connect to game controller
Loved it, some fixes
I used to own the game of Xbox so I’ve loved the storyline for awhile, although I’d like it to become an option to use a Bluetooth controller to play on phone like the first game.
Thanks
Thank you
Glitches
Couldn’t pass episode 3 because of a glitch when fixing the truck, I cannot select the fuel filter. It shows it’s there to interact with and it’s the last thing to do to the truck and no way to interact with it. Save your money because this game barely works on iOS and you can’t go past that part. 0 stars. Do not recommend trying to play this on the phone.
Bugs!
So on episode one when Chloe Price was going to school, David mouth was not opening, but the face was moving and it was terrifying😂. So please fix that bug in the game please!
Wanted to Love it
Super glitchy! Game storyline is okay but the glitches makes it worse😫
Great game, lots of bugs
I LOVE Life is Strange, both the og and the others. I got this one and the other on my phone (IOS) because it was cheaper then buying it on XBOX. The first game was decent, but this one had lots of problems. The audio gets choppy and delayed, there’s problems with the character models, and it kicks me out of the app randomly. The controls are very limited, so the tapping on the screen to walk is really annoying. My advice is to just buy these games on a different device that would work best for you. I 100% wish I could’ve bought these on XBOX before wasting my money. The game is amazing, but those bugs definitely need to be fixed.
Please Add Controller Support
Please add controller support. I want to play using my Backbone
Would Rate 0 Stars
Needs Better Controls. If I Have To Pay For A Phone Game I Would Expect It Not To Be A Glitchy Disappointment With Dum Controls. You Can Do Better.
progress
i love it i just keep losing progress
Glitch
I’m seeing through the freaking walls!!!! What the freak!!!!! I do love this game though 🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️🧛♀️🧛♀️🧛♀️🧛♀️😊😊😊😊😊
Great game but so glitchy you can’t finish the game
This is a brilliant game. It’s just such a shame that no matter how you try to work around the glitches you end up stuck at some point. If I play on my phone I can make it to episode 3 but I can’t get beyond fixing the car. I can fix all parts except the oil filter where I am not given any options to fix it. I thought this might be because the screens too small so I played on my iPad. I can’t get into the mill on episode 1 on this so that was a lot worse. Please fix the glitches because I love both of the life is strange games and I really want to finish. Thank you!
Best game!
This is definitely the best game I’ve ever played, I felt like I was there, on that journey with Chloe, it was not free however it was worth every penny. The first ever game that made me cry (multiple times.) With all the twists and turns, bumps in the road, the elements of lgbtq+ along with an amazing sound track that adds to everything. I could go on for paragraphs about how much I enjoyed playing it but I won’t. I just want to say that it was honestly a great experience 10/10 not a bad word to say about it.
REFUSING TO GIVE MONEY BACK + GLITCHES
THEY WONT GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK, GLITCHES AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE GAME WHEN CHLOE WAKES UP, I DONT HAVE THE OPTION TO CHANGE HER CLOTHES EVEN THO ITS THE OBJECTIVE! I WENT TO RESTORE PURCHASE AND THE BUTTON DOESNT WORK! TRIED TO CONTACT SQUARE ENJX AND THEY MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH THEM, THERE INSTAGRAM IS SET TO NOT RECEIVE MESSAGES LIKE ALL OF THEIR “SUPPORT CENTERS” ITS A SCAM DONT BUY IT!! LIFE IS STRANGE 1 IS PLAYABLE BUT NOT THIS ONE, I WASTED 7.99 FOR A GAME I CANT PLAY!!!
Game
Some things were bugged.. some people disappear when ur a scene and tap to move is just going insane
lis is so much better
I recently played Life Is Strange on mobile and I loved it so I decided to play this one, but I couldn't even finish it because the controls were so hard unlike Life Is Strange this one only has one option and I'm not very comfortable to play with it. I didn't experience many bugs because I played it for so little, but I've seen people complain about that.
A bit disappointed
Don’t get me wrong I still love the game, but when you make a purchase you expect it to be up to standard. There’s at least one glitch every five minutes, kind of a mood killer when a characters eyes turn grey, they become stuck halfway into the ground, or just decide to piss off completely... It’s still completely playable, just very much kills the atmosphere. The worst part is it doesn’t seem like the developers have any intention of fixing this, considering every glitch report seems to be left unanswered or unfixed. I love the game, but please please please do better
Choccywockydoodah
I love it it’s like so good I love the music and Rachel 👍👍
Crashes
Every time. The glitches are insane and then when the game does load it just crashes out the app. Why is it so hard to move in this game
Great game
But the touch version is too clumsy and gets frustrating. Please please add controller support. I played the first on one (backbone XBox version). Else, a great game. Good job.
Not good controller
Why you changer controller ??!
Frozen in dads office $$
I can’t do anything bought the whole game and it’s stuck on me taking a pic of money in dads office. You need to fix!!
