The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit Reviews
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a good contribution to the world of Life is Strange, which works more than well as a prelude to a full-fledged sequel. Plus, it's completely free. What else could you want?

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a fine time, it costs nothing while being a good a entry point for those interested in Life is Strange 2.
Despite Captain Spirit stays most of the time in his comfort zone, there are some interesting new ideas in it. We definitely will see again Chris in Life is Strange 2, and I'm pretty curious to see how his life will cross Arcadia Bay's.

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit takes you to a different and beautiful adventure, Just like the previous Dontnod games. But the short story makes it impossible for us to know Chris well and understand his feelings and we need (also, we want)to know more about him. The game has some cool and interesting features, especially Chris's new power is so fun. But also there is still a lot of space for improvements, and we hope to see these improvements, and of course Chris himself, in the future.

Despite some narrative clichés, the little prequel of Life is Strange 2 proves to be very effective in intensity and emotion.

Captain Spirit is a really fun time. It manages to remind us of the developers love for effective storytelling. It's awesome. And it's free.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is, quite simply, awesome and really scratches that Life is Strange itch leading up the release of Life is Strange 2. Dontnod is really on to something with this series and I hope that they can bottle lightning twice by making LiS2 as good as the first game.
In the short amount of time players have to try out the new mechanics and get reacquainted with the old, Dontnod sets up a new story that could be as emotionally resonant as the first game, but in different ways. Given the age difference between Max and Chris, the same exact situations cannot play out, nor should the story be the same. Superheroes are as popular in the gestalt as ever, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and The Incredibles 2 to My Hero Academia and One Punch Man. The unique chance to tell a compelling adult story from the point of view of a child—one who may have superpowers at that—is oh so delightful, and if anyone is up to the task of taking what is popular and familiar and subverting expectations to craft something raw and beautiful, Dontnod has that locked down.
An intriguing taste for what's to come in Life is Strange Season 2. The series' formula shows its age here and there, but what shines, as ever, is sensitive writing, and an excellent setting.
Captain Spirit ends on a rather obvious cliffhanger, however there’s more than enough here to have me eagerly anticipating Life is Strange 2. I’m convinced the death of Chris’ mom isn’t quite as clear-cut as it first appears and I’m looking forward to helping Chris uncover the truth. It’s always tricky to score a free game, but I enjoyed the 90 minutes I spent with Captain Spirit and recommend you give it a go.
If Dontnod has created this mere prologue for the single purpose of hyping the 2nd season of Life is Strange, then I must say that they've done a pretty decent job. This short but rewarding experience has given us a proper outlook of what to expect from Life is Strange 2 and prepared us for the next set of the strangest events life has to offer

A short but - most importantly - free episode taster for the upcoming Life is Strange 2, the adventures of Captain Spirit appear that they'll indeed, be awesome.
Dontnod didn't necessarily need to make The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, but I'm really glad that it did.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a nice and well-built childish game that perfectly fits with the amazing world of Life is Strange. If you're looking for another intense and heartbreaking story, Chris will be your best friend in this new adventure from Dontnod Entertainment.

Captain Spirit's use of a child's imagination to contextualize a dark, poignant story sets up a strong foundation to build Life is Strange 2 upon.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a brief, but thought-provoking look into what awaits players when Life is Strange 2 begins its release on September 27.
Even though The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is more a Life is Strange 2's pre-purchase commercial than a decent complete game, it's cozy and satisfying to play because of great environmental storytelling, vivid characters, and interesting explore experience.

Other shortcomings found in the sometimes-clunky writing and overly scripted emotional moments can feel unearned or sloppy. But the spirit and charm found in the surprise-hit Life is Strange is certainly here in The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is the great return of Dontnod into the Life is Strange franchise. It' s lovely, well crafted, and touching as usual (and it's also renewed in graphics).
