Game Type:
Life Is Strange: Before the Storm is an episodic graphic adventure video game.
Graphic adventures are adventure games that use graphics to convey the environment to the player. Games under the graphic adventure banner may have a variety of input types, from text parsers to touch screen interfaces. Graphic adventure games will vary in how they present the avatar. Some games will utilize a first-person or third-person perspective where the camera follows the player’s movements, whereas many adventure games use drawn or pre-rendered backgrounds, or a context-sensitive camera that is positioned to show off each location to the best effect.
Game play:
Life Is Strange: Before the Storm is a graphic adventure played from a third-person view. The player assumes control of sixteen-year-old Chloe Price, three years before Life Is Strange. Unlike its predecessor, the game does not include time travel. Instead, Before the Storm features the ability “Backtalk”, which the player can use to call upon Chloe to get out of certain precarious situations; “Backtalk” may also make a situation worse. A dialogue tree is used when a conversation or commentary is prompted. Occasional decisions will temporarily or permanently change outcomes. The environment can be interacted with and altered, including marking walls with graffiti.
For the prequel, the diary mechanic from Life is Strange was replaced with a letter mechanic. The player is be able to read unsent letters from Chloe to Max in which she puts down her thoughts on what’s going on, replacing Max’s diary as an assistant narrative device. It’s meant to grant the player a “unique insight” into Chloe’s life and how she views people and events. It’s explained that she doesn’t send those letters because she has given up hope that Max will ever return to Arcadia Bay or play any part in her life. Max’s photography mechanic which allowed the player to take optional photos throughout the game to unlock achievements was replaced with an optional graffiti mechanic that allows the player to “leave their mark on the world”, which is meant to be Chloe’s special thing as photography was Max’s. The player is often given the choice of what to write.
Life is Strange: Before the Storm is a three-part standalone adventure that serves as a prequel to Life is Strange, set three years prior to the main game’s events, developed by Denver-based Deck Nine Games and published by Square Enix. Screenshots were leaked on June 1, 2017 from D9’s recently launched website. The game was officially announced with a trailer on the E3 2017 on June 12, 2017. Episode 1, “Awake”, was released on August 31, 2017. Episode 2, “Brave New World”, was released on October 19, 2017. Episode 3, “Hell Is Empty” was released on December 20, 2017. The game released on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC (Steam). Feral Interactive released macOS and Linux versions on September 13, 2018. iOS and Android versions are announced for September 19, 2018. The PEGI age rating is 16 and the ESRB rating is mature.
The player controls sixteen-year old Chloe Price who forms an unlikely friendship with Rachel Amber, a beautiful and popular girl destined for success. When Rachel learns a secret about her family that threatens to destroy her world, it is her newfound friendship with Chloe that gives her the strength to carry on. No longer alone, the girls must confront each other’s demons and find a way to overcome them together.
The prequel is set in May 2010, three years prior to the events of the main game, shortly after Chloe’s mother Joyce Price became involved with soon-to-be stepfather David Madsen. The game features returning characters William Price, Frank Bowers, Nathan Prescott, and Victoria Chase as well as returning background characters such as the Truck Driver. The story focuses on Chloe’s life as a sophomore at Blackwell Academy as well as the relationship between Chloe and Rachel and the events that made them bond.
Max Caulfield does not make an appearance in Before the Storm, as it is set during the period where Max is absent from Chloe’s life; however, Chloe feels her absence and references her throughout the game. There is no rewind power, so choices are even more crucial in this game as Chloe can only rely on her sharp tongue. As in Dontnod’s first offering in the Life is Strange franchise, every action has a consequence that affects the short, mid and long-term. “Strange elements” make various appearances without explicitly being portrayed as supernatural powers or occurrences.
Community Manager for Life is Strange, Toby Palm, had announced that it will be “an entirely new story. We want to take the player on a new journey and not tell a story that players already know the ending of.” The game’s story will be a mystery story with an investigative angle like the first game.
Deck Nine Games stated that the story that most resonated with them was one that comfortably spanned across three episodes and takes around 6-9 hours to complete. They have listened to the Life is Strange community’s wishes to see more of Max Caulfield, so a self-contained bonus game called “Farewell” will be released, which takes place long before the events of the prequel. This bonus episode will be released after Episode 3; however, it will only be included with the “Deluxe Edition” of the prequel. Deck Nine Games have emphasized that the bonus game will have no bearing on the prequel story; it is only intended as a bonus for those who wish to play as Max once again.
On August 10, 2017, a live Reddit AMA was held with members of Deck Nine Games. During this live question and answer session, fans were informed that, “even the most dedicated fan won’t know how Before the Storm is going to end. Be prepared to anguish over choices just like in LIS1! We decided very early on to ensure we’re writing a story that no one knows the ending of. In fact, the vast majority of events throughout the series are all brand new.” Fans were also told during the AMA that “returning to Arcadia Bay was a direct response to fans telling Square [Enix] that they wanted to go back to Arcadia Bay.”
The game uses the Unity engine that supplements a self-developed tool set called StoryForge. This differs from Season 1, which used Unreal Engine 3, and Season 2, which is built on Unreal Engine 4
