I’m wandering around my character’s bedroom in High on Life and I’m so high that I’ve forgotten what I’m doing. Something about a bounty? Aliens? I dunno. And then, seemingly out of nowhere, the most incredible music drifts into my character’s room. I’m transfixed by the soulful singing about...

4.1.2023
Over the 420-induced blur that was my Christmas to New Year’s, I spent about 16 hours finishing High on Life’s campaign. It was a pleasant way to unwind in the final days of 2022, and the game got quite a few laughs out of me, not to mention more than a few raised eyebrows and groans. But most...

Rick And Morty Creators Issue Patch To Make New Shooter Less Annoying
14.12.2022

High On Life: The Kotaku Review
13.12.2022
I’m about four hours into High On Life and I have a migraine. It’s unfair to say that the game has given me one—I am, after all, notoriously prone to them—but it certainly isn’t helping. The brightly colored, gloopy, blobby alien worlds and incessant chatter from NPCs, enemies, and my weapons...
