High on Life

This is an absolutely enjoyable game, especially if you are a Rick & Morty or Solar Opposites fan, or resonate with satirical story, violence and drug usage. The graphics are beautiful, and the dialogue is very in line with Justin Roiland's other works and game (Trover Saves the Universe). The gameplay is fun and the story is replete with comedic violence, throwbacks and commentary and metacommentary. I haven't found anything about the game that I don't enjoy or appreciate, as the game just came out I haven't finished it yet but so far it is most excellent.

Parents beware, this game, as the title should suggest, is not appropriate for children.

9/10.

The funniest game I ever played. Last time I laughed so much while playing a game was during the Borderlands Telltale game. But this one is even funnier.

The voice acting is sensational, the dialogues are crazy funny.

Gameplay is similar to Doom Eternal (not as intense and smooth of course but the similarities are there).

Not the longest game and there is no new game plus but I enjoyed every second while it lasted. Around 10 hours to complete.

There are multiple weapons in the game, all with different and unique abilities and personalities. Yes personality because they all talk to you and to each other throughout the whole game. Super funny.

The game offers you to turn off the weapon dialogues if you want because they do talk a lot but please do yourself a favour and keep it on. Best thing in the game.

Boss fights are great and all unique. Lot of different areas so you won't feel bored for a second.

We need more games like this. So funny, not scared to say things that other games wouldn't dare, enjoyable combat, nice art design, and a phenomenal experience that everyone should try. It's in game pass so you don't even have to buy it. One of my favourite games of the year.

I really enjoy this Game. The sharp writing was a major stand out for me with this restricted platform jumper.

Beautiful open world was also a major plus.

The hypnotic music selection was also a major ingredient.

CON: The only downsides to this brillant project were some length puzzles and a few annoying progression halting puzzles

Quick play for streamers ( As I am a twitch streamer!) F

I'd really like to see DLC and other quality of life contributed to this game. And the ability for your character to speak

Bravo; to all of the developers Follow me on twitch: kingprodigygames.

Thanks..

People (should) immediately know what they're walking into with the dialogue and writing of this game. That being said, High on Life was a surprisingly competent single player FPS in 2022. It's even ACTUALLY funny in a few moments (I personally don't find Justin Roiland's type humor that amusing, but there is whit in a few exchanges that happen.)

The game plays like a modest DooM clone, waves of enemies, plenty of dodging, shooting, using movement abilities. High On Life has significantly fewer guns but each gun has a character personality that fits in with the mood of the gun being used. The enemies and locations aren't anything particular to write home about, but they also don't overstay their welcome unless players decide to go for 100%.

I will admit I didn't feel the desire to 100% the game because even though world traversal is swift and easy, total post-game completion is a tedious slog. Being said, if they do decide to release DLC or another game, I'd probably be willing to pick Bounty Hunting back up for another go.

As a huge fan of Solar Opposites, I couldn't resist diving into Justin Roiland's latest creation, "High on Life." From the moment I started playing, I knew I was in for a wild ride. This first-person shooter with light open-world elements places you in a bizarre sci-fi universe where Earth is in the clutches of aliens who want to turn humans into a smokable commodity. As a bounty hunter battling the henchmen of the main antagonist, you'll quickly find yourself immersed in this quirky world.

The gameplay itself is solid but not groundbreaking. While the action is fun and fast-paced, it doesn't quite reach the "ultra-spectacular" heights you might expect from a modern FPS. Instead, the real draw here is the world-building and, of course, the humor. There are five weapons at your disposal, each with its own personality voice, adding a unique twist to the typical shooter experience. Kenny, voiced by Justin Roiland, stands out as the heart of the game, delivering witty and often hilarious commentary that playfully pokes fun at video game tropes.

What really caught me off guard was the depth of the storytelling. I was pleasantly surprised by the plot twists and character arcs that show the developers poured a lot of love into this project. The combat pits you against hordes of minions, but each lieutenant you face has its own unique battle mechanics, which kept the experience fresh and exciting.

The voice acting is top-notch, particularly Roiland's performance. Despite the controversies surrounding his career, it's clear that he has a real talent for bringing characters to life through voice. The game's soundtrack, featuring a mix of intentionally cheesy '50s sci-fi music, adds a charming layer to the overall experience. And let's not forget those achievement names-I actually found myself chuckling at some of them!

I clocked around 22 hours in "High on Life," which I enjoyed thoroughly. The combat can feel a bit repetitive after a while, but the humor and world make up for it. Overall, I'd say this game is a solid 8/10 and I'm genuinely curious to see how they'll expand this universe in a potential sequel. If you appreciate a good laugh alongside your sci-fi action, this game is definitely worth your time.
