This is essentially a 'Choose your own adventure' movie type game, which is cool if you like to play casually. Lots of foul language, but a neat concept, just like the original game.

This game is played in episodes. It is kind of like an old school choose your own adventure book in video game form. I don’t want to give the story away so I am not going to talk about the characters. But if you love a good story that will hit you in the feels and enjoy gaming this is the game for you.

I bought this game because: 1) It was on sale and 2) The first Life is Strange was an awesome game.
I know there's been talk about if you never played these games rather to play 'after the storm' (ATS) first. I played the first game and then ATS and found this second game rather boring since you can't help but to compare it to the first. I highly recommend playing ATS first and then the original Life is Strange.

I actually play this game with my niece. It is a story telling type of game. You choose what to do and what to say. It is really a fun game.

This was actually not bad at all. Playing the prequel after I had already played the first release was a little wierd but overall it was good. I'm looking forward to LIS 2
