Tell me whythe other adventure title from the developers of Life is strangeis currently available for free download at Steam and the Xbox marketplace. The three-part series launched in 2020 for $19.99, and while the first part of the trilogy has been free since 2021, Dontnod made the adventure available in its entirety for free in June in honor of Pride Month in recent years.
By focusing largely on how your decisions affect the unfolding story, Tell me why tells a compelling story while remaining light on the mechanics. Fans of Telltale’s adventure titles or Dontnod’s groundbreaking adventure, Life is strangewill feel right at home.
As with previous entries in the Dontnod catalogue, the dialogue is occasionally cringe-inducing and can be a bit heavy-handed in its execution, but the game still exhibits a a surprising amount of literacy around the lived experiences of transgender people.
If you’re a fan of some of Dontnod’s other adventure titles, or are simply looking for a thoughtful and emotional game to play during Pride Month (or any month for that matter), you should take a moment to add Tell me why to your backlog.
