Life is Strange: Episode 3 - Chaos Theory Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Regardless of whether some scenes may have been inconsequential, and despite some of the gameplay being a little repetitive and drab, there’s no denying the impact that Chaos Theory has. As Life is Strange episode 3 fades to black, you feel like everything you’ve already come to know about the game has totally been thrown out of the window, and we genuinely have no idea how episode 4 is going to pick up. But we desperately need to know. Any game that leaves you on such tenterhooks, eager to delve more into its world to uncover its secrets, is a massive success in my opinion.
Episode 3 of Life is Strange, Chaos Theory, is now available across multiple gaming platforms and with this current instalment, it really takes the franchise
If you could eliminate the worst moment of someone's life, would you? Every important event — good or bad — shapes the person you are, and taking away these tribulations would change who you eventually become. As we've seen across time-travel fiction, going into the past and future and changing events can have huge repercussions. The latest episode of Life is Strange explores more of this concept, showing characters at their worst and explaining how these events have affected them.
The end of this episode is a killer cliffhanger, one that has been turning over in my brain since I finished. I care about these characters enough to want the happy ending for them. I want to know what’s going to happen to Max and Chloe; I want to find Rachel Amber; I want to figure out what’s up with all the batshit crazy climate changes. "Chaos Theory" is the lowest point of Life is Strange yet — and still, it’s the first game I want to recommend to everyone I know right now.
