Artemis writes: "Life Is Strange: Episode 5 – Polarized is an amazing final entry to the game as a whole making the entire game more than worth the price of admission. The story has evolved far past a typical story about high school hipsters and their magic time powers; it's now become an entity in on itself, raising the bar for all future games of this type, actually challenging its audience to think outside of the box when it comes to characters, storylines and games itself."
The final 3 episodes of this unique adventure get reviewed at Player 2
With the final chapter in Dontnod's teen drama serial coming to a close, Gamesfiends' Zeth takes one last adventure with Max in the episode 5 review.
"If you've invested in the series I don’t think you’ll be disappointed in the conclusion of the story. The execution might stumble in places, but it never falls and Dontnod have managed to bring together a thoughtful and artistic story that has enough substance to be discussed as a game or an analysis of coming-of-age.

JBH reviews 'Polarized', the fifth and final episode in Dontnod Entertainment's interactive drama series, 'Life is Strange'.
**Spoilers**
I completed Life is strange only yesterday, and absolutely loves it! Most enjoyable Interactive story adventure game i've played so far.
Just like many others though im not happy with the end decision. I wish there was 1 extra decision you could make.
1. Sacrifice Arcadia Bay
2a. Sacrifice Chloe
2b. Sacrifice yourself and take the bullet for Chloe
Dontnod have already said a sequel most likely will feature a whole new cast so i wish self sacrifice should have been an option, I though Chloe throughout the entire game had a pretty shitty life, and i think Max's power to reverse time should have been given to her so that she could save Chloe (by sacrificing herself), and the punishment for there "selfishness" was the cyclone destroying everything they care about.
*SPOILERS*
I agree. I didn't want to go into too much detail in the review, but I felt like it would have tied things up nicely if Max would have sacrificed herself. Chloe didn't really deserve to die because of Max's mistakes, but I suppose the game got around that by implying that Chloe's death was fated, which is why she died in almost every timeline. Still though, would have been a good ending.
Looking forward to season 2 though!
