High on Life

"The new game by Squanch Games is a product that moves between ups and downs, an oscillatory trend that concerns in particular a gaming sector with evident roughness."

"An entertaining first-person shooter that gets better with every new talking gun you get. Crazy situations, constant dialogues and a sense of humor can be his strengths... or weak, depending on your tastes. But if you like Rick &a; Morty, …"

"High on Life is a hilarious piece of comedy that also makes for an enjoyable first-person shooter, especially if you&s;re into Justin Roiland&s;s brand of humor."

"Though High on Life takes a bit of time to get the ball rolling and lacks some enemy variety, it&s;s a comical adventure with an excellent opening and finale, and promises plenty of other surprises in store for players."

"As-is, High on Life is great weekend Game Pass pickup, and something to go into with caution if you’re a fan of Roiland’s work."

"High on Life is filled with some fun mechanics and great writing, and while it doesn&s;t reinvent the genre, it makes it more enjoyable."

"High on Life is likely a divisive game. While the gameplay is more than sufficient - if you&s;re happy with an unrefined, almost arcade-style shooter - you then come to the dialogue and "comedy", which, to me, was overdone to …"

"High on Life is a fun first-person shooter game with a memorable and hilarious story as well as a couple of serious bugs that need addressing."

"A game written and directed by one of the creators of Rick and Morty could have been a masterpiece, instead turned out to be an interesting and hilarious product only in parts. The gameplay holds up for a few hours …"

"High On Life is easily Squanch Games’ most ambitious project, but aside from the environments and the world-building which match that ambition, the first-person shooter itself is incredibly generic, and not funny enough to make up for it."

"High on Life is a decent enough game that doesn&s;t quite live up to its potential. The combat feels unfocused and lacks depth, while the story and humor only hit their stride in the final moments. Still, it&s;s worth a …"

"High on Life is a game that keeps its promises. Underneath a skin made up of over the top humor there is a biting irony towards a genre (old school FPS&s;s) which has far too many tropes to make fun …"

"High on Life takes the right design cues from Metroid Prime, though uneven comedy makes for a hit-and-miss adventure."

"High on Life has a particular vibe, one that rewards patient exploration and persistence. The dialogue is a lot to handle, yes. And not every weapon is a winner. The wrong Gatlian can leave you both overwhelmed and unimpressed. But …"

"The most fun I had with High on Life was watching the entirety of Tammy and the T-Rex on an in-game television, and that’s not a compliment. It’s indicative of a game that doesn’t know how to exploit the interactivity …"

"Squanch Games&s; trademark humor mixes with solid shooting and traversal in this goofy space romp."

"Ultimately, I would recommend High on Life, but if you do, go into it with the mind that it’s a video game with a sense of humor that may fall short on you. Despite feeling a bit dated and some …"

"There&s;s an Achievement permanently tied to my account now that claims I spent "15 hours at the very real in-game alien strip club." To all my friends and family who may one day read this: I promise that isn&s;t true."

"High on Life is a fantastic experience hindered by some technical shortcomings. The world and characters are simply fantastic and it is genuinely hilarious, which is one of the hardest things in gaming to achieve. This game shot up my …"

"High on Life is a decent FPS with great voice acting and an interesting new universe to explore. While I didn’t find any point in the game where I laughed out loud, if you are someone who enjoys the humor …"

"Humor is the most important thing about High on Life. It single-handedly decides about how you will feel about the game. If it works for you, everything should."

"High on Life is a mediocre shooter punctuated by sporadic humor that misses more often than it hits. Its self-mocking video game gags were tackled much more effectively in Trover, and the sheer size of the experience only places its …"

"High on Life comes to our consoles and is consolidated as one of the great surprises of the year. A fun delivery, full of action and uncensored humor that will make your games incredibly funny."

"Despite multiple shortcomings and my general aversion to the game’s writing, High on Life has occasional glimmers of potential. I’d like to see a sequel polish and improve upon this foundation. I’m always itching for more creative takes on shooters, …"

"High On Life is an anarchic take on the first-person shooter genre, replete with improvisational, off-color humor and a bizarre tone that few other games can match. Even if you don&s;t vibe with its comedy style, though, High On Life …"

"There’s combat and light puzzle-solving, but at its core, High on Life is a narrative sandbox adventure that requires little more than your time and attention. As someone who’s been feeling a little stressed and seasonally depressed lately, I sincerely …"

"A colourful, silly and deliberately over-the-top first person shooter, with severely undercooked gunplay and a sense of humour that will test the patience of even Rick and Morty fans."

"This first-person shooter from Rick and Morty&s;s co-creator pairs a barrage of nihilistic jokes with flimsy gameplay"

"Lacking the sharpness needed by both shooters and comedy, High on Life is a low point in the gaming calendar."

"Despite having a number of fun and interesting ideas, High on Life falls short of its full potential. The new game from the co-creator of Rick and Morty will give you a good time, but only that."

"High on Life just isn’t very good, and there’s not much more to say. I think a lot of people are taking the route of ‘well, if you love this humour you might enjoy it’, but I already do love …"

"High on Life is a conflicted game. On the one hand it&s;s a solid shooter that often feels like more than the sum of its parts, and comes with an engaging art style and ideas, but the sense of humour …"

"High on Life is a laugh-out-loud funny space odyssey that’s chaotic, bizarre, and a ton of fun."
