Every year in the industry there are games that are somewhat hidden from view, and even from the momentum that exists in the most important games of the year. High on Life is the surprise gem of 2022 for many during the month of December. Today, since we don't have words to describe it in a review or because we want to make things exceptional, we can give you reasons why you should buy High on Life, which is exceptional.
The game isn’t just a first-person shooter experience. In fact, the gun in the game talks. Yes, that’s true, and it’s the most important touch that adds to the unique comedic feel. This gun is held by someone who has no name to immerse the player in the entire experience as if they were embarking on this adventure themselves. The person holding the gun is nothing more than a means to make the setting consistent with the gun’s speech.
The comedy in this game is the most important reason for you to spend money on the game, because the developer is the studio Squanch Games, which was founded by Justin Roiland and is the creator of the famous cartoon series “Rick and Morty”. The voice actor of “Morty” appears with his voice representation of the talking gun. I think we have talked enough about the secondary causes… Let’s talk about the gameplay itself.
The game offers a fast-paced action shooter experience. At the beginning of the game, the player will take on the role of a person lost in an unknown world with wide-open human trafficking. High on Life offers a variety of enemies. You will see some alien beings alongside the gangs scattered throughout this desolate world, but it maintains the satirical pace at hand.
High on Life has plenty of punchlines that are well-told, and it also has a wonderfully colorful world to explore. Not to mention that it will keep you glued to your chair for 6 hours straight. The game costs around $14.60 on PC. I know for a game that priced at that level, I should have heard more about it, but regardless, I think it’s a great experience to add to your library.
Tell me your opinion, dear reader.. Do you really think that misguided marketing is what somewhat harmed High on Life's fame during its early days?
