2014科隆游戏展五款最佳新游戏

    《生活真奇怪》

    开发商：Dontnod Entertainment、Square Enix

    游戏平台：Xbox One、Xbox 360、PS4、PS3 、PC

    发布日期：2015年

    从某些方面来看，《生活真奇怪》（Life Is Strange）与Dontnod Entertainment的科幻动作类游戏《勿忘我》（Remember Me）是两款截然不同的游戏，而从另一些方面来看，这两款章节式的冒险游戏十分类似。两款游戏都采用了虚幻3引擎（Unreal Engine 3），打造了美轮美奂的游戏世界供玩家探索。这两款游戏的名字也都有非常具有女性特征的主角。《生活真奇怪》的故事发生于美国俄勒冈州的阿卡迪亚湾，玩家将操纵青年马克斯•考菲尔德，开始一段包含有五个章节互动剧情的冒险。

    马克斯将与她的朋友克洛伊一起，揭开她的同学雷切尔•安布尔神秘失踪背后的真相。游戏具有电影的体验感，配有不拘一格的原声，将当下年轻女孩的焦虑与生死攸关的情境结合了起来，再加上了时光倒流的能力，这一切使得这款游戏脱颖而出。尽管该作品中采用的机制在其他游戏中曾经用过，但由法国开发商制作的美国风格游戏，还是让这种定时操作有耳目一新的感觉。

    Consoles: Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS4, PC

    In some ways, Life Is Strange couldn’t be more different than Dontnod Entertainment’s sci-fi action game Remember Me, but in other ways, the episodic adventure game is similar. Both games use Unreal Engine 3 technology to create beautiful worlds to explore. And both titles also feature a strong female protagonist. Set in Arcadia Bay, Oregon, players take control of teenager Max Caulfield and embark on an adventure that will span five interactive episodes.

    Along with her friend Chloe, Max is out to uncover the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of fellow student Rachel Amber. With an indie-film feel and an eclectic soundtrack, Life Is Strange stands out from other games by blending the angst of being a teenage girl today with life-and-death situations, and the ability to rewind time. While this gameplay mechanic has been used in many games before, this take on time manipulation feels as unique as the American characters the French developer has created.
