James writes - "With the follow up to the award winning Life is Strange only a few months away, DONTNOD Entertainment figured they’d release a demo of sorts to tide us over until the main event, Life is Strange 2, arrives on the scene. The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is that demo and it’s completely free for all as it aims to give players a taste of what’s to come, with some choices directly affecting your experience in Life is Strange 2. But is it worthwhile to actually play The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, or are you better off just skipping it?"
Have you ever dreamt of being a superhero? Meet Chris, a creative and imaginative 10-year-old boy who escapes reality with fantastical adventures as his alter ego, the Awesome Captain Spirit!
Jason Monroe writes: "Is Dontnod’s free offering, The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, worth your time? Yes, actually."
Instead of feeling like the first chapter in a multi-part story, The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is more like a snapshot. It only takes a couple hours to finish, and depicts a routine day in the life of Chris and his dad. It has explicit connections to the upcoming Life is Strange 2 that have me excited, but The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit also stands alone as a clever and heartbreaking look at a kid who deserves better. | Gameinformer
