However, in doing so, that particular emotion becomes one with her, such as being scared of an imaginary monster or filled with guilt and anger. In Life Is Strange: True Colors, Alex has the ability to see people’s emotions and absorb them in order to free them from their worries, fears, or depression. The original Life is Strange had you control Max Caulfield, a girl who discovers she has the power to rewind time and change the immediate future by watching the outcome and adjusting it accordingly. So, what are my thoughts on the entire package and did dropping the episodic release schedule affect my opinion? Let’s find out… Also, I’m glad I waited as the developers added a much-requested feature post-launch after specifically stating it wouldn’t be added, enhancing the gameplay and experience in my opinion. But, I held out reviewing the game until I’d played through the Wavelengths DLC – which I have now completed.
I completed the game around launch, grabbing the platinum on the PlayStation 5. Prior knowledge of the series isn’t required to enjoy Life Is Strange: True Colors, but if you’ve played through Before the Storm then you’ll be familiar with a returning character. Life is Strange 1, 2 and The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit were developed by Dontnod Entertainment, whereas Before the Storm and True Colors are from Deck Nine – as are the upcoming remasters of both Life is Strange and Before the Storm. In a similar vein to Activision with their Call of Duty Games, Square Enix has been alternating between developers for each of the five releases within the franchise so far. Finally, last month Life Is Strange: True Colors launched as a full game, meaning we no longer had to wait to experience the entire story – followed a few weeks later by the Deluxe Edition backstory DLC, Wavelengths.
Then, in 2018/19, came the five-part episodic Life is Strange 2, as well as the free-to-play spin-off The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. A few years later (2017/18) we saw Life is Strange: Before the Storm, a three-part episodic prequel to the events we experience in the first game (with a bonus chapter for owners of the Deluxe edition). The original Life is Strange was released back in 2015 as a five-part episodic narrative adventure game in the vein of current Telltale releases.
