Life Is Strange is still a strong candidate for my game of the year but this episode raised a bunch of problems.
'Dark Room' exhibits the best and worst of what Life is Strange has to offer
Dark Room is the most brutal episode of Life Is Strange yet -- and that comes at the cost of characters.
Max and Chloe get closer to solving Rachel's disappearance, but that's hardly bringing any peace of mind.
Episode four of DONTNOD's Life Is Strange continues the exceptional level of quality that episode three delivered. It even goes so far as to surpass what came before in a variety of ways.
Life is Strange's penultimate episode abuses its own mechanics and drags the pace down, but bookends its slog with two powerful, well-worth-it gut punches.
