High on Life Reviews

Professional reviews from gaming critics

High on Life 2 delivers more talking guns, outrageous satire, and wildly inventive boss fights but plays things a bit too safe to truly surpass its predecessor.

High on Knife is as perfect as a High on LIfe DLC can get. It builds upon the mechanics of the first game, providing a funny and fresh experience.

High On Life is dirty, rambunctious and a hell-load of fun. While the comedy, writing and voice acting will not be everyone's cup of tea, the self-referential, meta humour really tickles me silly. It's nice to play a game that does not take itself seriously, pushes the boat out a little and strays from the mainstream cookie-cutter formula. I had a lot of fun with High On Life, its not perfect by any means but it did it's job and kept me truly entertained throughout.

High on Life is the latest game to come from the bizarre mind of Justin Roiland, co-creator of the Rick & Morty and Solar Opposites television series. I’ll be frank and come right out with it- if you don’t care for the humor of either of those series, then High on Life is not the game for you. This was very much the case for Roiland’s last game, Trover Saves the Universe, as well. However, if you, like me, love the humor found in those shows, then by all means, keep on reading.

High On Life is the most video game-like video game to come from the minds of Squanch and Justin Roiland to date, and it shows the studio is capable of more than just lightly-interactive experiences packed with fart and cum jokes. Though it has plenty of those, too.

All in all though, I had a great time with High on Knife, and I do plan on going back in to clean up some undiscovered items, which thankfully, the game allows you to do, even after completing the main questline. If you loved the off-beat humour, gross body horror and Rick and Morty style humour of the original game, you’ll hardly be making a mistake picking this mini-expansion up. It’s Knifey’s time to shine (or stab everyone)…or both.

A pretty funny romp that never quite finds its speed both as a shooter and as a comedic story. It’s unlikely you’ll be bored with High on Life.

High on Life fuses the patented zany Rick and Morty humor with a sci-fi FPS, delivering talking guns and ample alien-shooting chaos, but not without blemishes.High on Life is one of those games that you’ll either “get” or you won’t — thanks largely [...]

High on Life is the newest game by Rick and Morty co-creator, Justin Roiland, and that is either going to have you incredibly excited or exhausted by his relentless sense of humor.
