All three episodes are temporarily free to claim, as they have been every year. The second listing with the strikethrough price ($19.99) is the full game.

Quote from hordeman :
This is a great, touching story for people who are into story-based games like "Life is Strange: Before the Storm".
I played Life is Strange (the first one) and the best critique of that game I ever read was it feels like the dialog was written by adults trying to imagine how modern teens act. Some of the weirdest, cringiest characters in a game. I don't know if the sequel was any good because I didn't want to risk it.

I love the first LiS and didn't mind the dialogue. Before the Storm is absent of any "powers" and just focuses on telling Chloe's story. That's pretty much Tell Me Why.

I'm happy some people understand the reference. I wasn't sure if it was too obscure.
Honestly warms my heart knowing other people thought the same thing seeing the title.

You'll never convince me this game isn't a stealth parody. There's no way it's not.
