Critic Reviews for Life is Strange: Episode 4 - Dark Room
Life Is Strange Episode 4 is a series of gut punches, making new strides in gameplay and storytelling that take the series from interesting to must-play.
Dark Room finally sets off the mystery but it's the least consistent episode of Life Is Strange so far.
Episode 4 wraps up some mysteries, but leaves you with even more questions, enticing you to stay on the turbulent ride
'Dark Room' exhibits the best and worst of what Life is Strange has to offer
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.
With Episode 4: Dark Room finishing on a brilliant cliffhanger, Dontnod will no doubt be firing on all cylinders as they head towards the finish line for Life Is Strange with some serious momentum behind them.
Dark Room doesn't give you much room to complain, unless you hate things that make you have feelings. It's the best-paced, most emotional entry yet, and it handles its super-serious subject matter with skill and maturity. This is the chapter we've been waiting to play since the beginning.
An emotional tour de force that has considerably upped the ante as the final episode approaches. That last episode can't come soon enough.
