Life is Strange is almost a genre-defining title. The games in this series blend the difference between an AAA and an indie title. Thus, several indie and AAA title studios have come up with titles based on how Life is Strange games deliver their content. There are a bunch of such titles out in the market.
In this article, we will list the best ones to choose from while trying to pick up the next title for your video game library. We do not say that one title is significantly better than the other. Instead, all five of these are recommendations that you need to check out.
Tell Me Why (2020)
Tell Me Why comes from the same developers as Life is Strange, Dontnod Entertainment. Based on a small fictional town in Alaska, the game showcases a couple of twins who reunite after a decade and try to find out the true cause of their mother’s death. However, what follows are utter confusion, a rift between the twins, and some unexpected discoveries.
The choices of the player heavily impact the story, and they can determine whether the twins remain connected at the end of the story, or stop seeing each other’s faces permanently.
Heavy Rain (2010)
Heavy Rain is old enough to be deemed a classic at this point. Although several players have criticized the dicey controls of the game, its narrative is strong and on-point. The game has been developed by Quantic Dream, a studio that is known not to disappoint with its releases.
The plot of the game is mature. Much like the previous game in this list, the outcomes in Heavy Rain can be significantly affected by player choices.
Road 96 (2021)
Road 96 has been significantly influenced by Life is Strange games. The game follows a much similar art style as well. It is a politically driven narrative adventure, and player choices can significantly affect the outcomes of the game.
The game mainly focuses on hitchhiking, walking and stealing, and making it to the border before Election Day. The game is filled with numerous teenage characters like most Life is Strange games.
All of these games are wonderful and will leave the players engulfed in deep thoughts questioning one or the other aspect of life. We recommend all of these titles to anyone who loved Life is Strange.
