decent game
fun at times annoying at others
not the worst thing ive ever played but not in any way groundbreaking, not to mention the story & progression is pretty mediocre but atleast has hints of passion
again though it gets real annoying at times
roiland humor gets stale real fast but towards the end it felt a bit more bearable.. maybe i just got numb to it
also what an underwhelming ending; hard boss, underwhelming ending.

High on Life is a game that works with its strengths. Throughout the game, you will hear countless voice lines from many different strange characters including all of your guns. The guns are more of a highlight as they make comments on most of the things you do which can be funny. The story also keeps a lighthearted approach with most of the scenarios just being leadups to a punch line. The rest of the game though is honestly kinda of a basic fps adventure. This is really the only bad part, but when the gameplay is the weakest part of your game, it can feel pretty bad to play. The abilities are fun and the gunplay feels cool, but when you’re playing this game it’s really just for the comedy aspect.

Steve,
I just got a weird e-mail.

Did you buy us
airline tickets?

Aw, shoot. It was supposed
to be a surprise.

I wanted
to thank you

for letting me live here
all this time,

so I'm treating the family
to a vacation!

Steve,
you're so sweet.

- Thanks, Uncle Steve!
- Best Uncle ever.

Look out, world.

The Smith family
is going to Paris!

SUMMER:
Yeah! Awesome!



Rick, I don't like glowing
rocks in the kitchen trash!

Well,
I don't like

your unemployed genes
in my grandchildren, Jerry,

but life is made
of little concessions.

I --
you know what?

You're gonna land
on your feet, Jer.

Some company out there's
gonna thank their lucky stars

they hired
my little brother.

Who the fuck are you?

My goofy brother, Steve.

[chuckles] He's been
living here almost a year now.

Are you
losing your mind?

Hey,
someone's been spending

too much time
around glowing rocks.



- Am I right?
- [ laughter]

[screaming ]

- Oh, my god!
- Call an ambulance!

JERRY: Oh, god! Steve!

What the hell, Rick?!
What the hell?!

Will everybody just relax
for a second?

There's no such thing
as an "Uncle Steve."

- That is an alien parasite.
[ screeches ]

[ Both gasp ]

But I've known him
my whole life.

No, you haven't,
Jerry.

These telepathic
little bastards,

they embed themselves
in memories,

and th-then they use
those to multiply

and spread out,
take over planets.

It's --
it's disgusting.

Steve wasn't real?

He's a real
piece of shit.

This is a big one.
Somebody probably

tracked it in last week
on the bottom of their shoe

on a piece of alien fruit.

- Someone?
- Get off the high road, Summer.

We all
got pink eye

because you won't stop
texting on the toilet.

But Uncle Steve taught me
how to ride a bike!

No, "Steve" put that memory
in your brain

so he could live in your house,
eat your food, and multiply.

We could be infested
with these things.

[ Belches]
So we got to keep an eye out

for any zany, wacky
characters that pop up.

Ooh, whee!

Whatever you want, Rick!
We're here to help!

Thanks,
Mr. Poopybutthole.

I always could
count on you.

♪♪

♪♪

All right. There's six of us,
and that's it.

Me, Morty, Jerry, Beth,
Mr. Poopybutthole, and Summer.

Maybe you got the first one
in time, Rick!

- Can't afford to chance it.
- [ beep ]

Dad, why does our house
have blast shields?

Trust me, Beth,
you don't want to know

how many answers
that question has.

Ooh, gosh,
it feels claustrophobic!

Reminds me
of that time

we all got stuck
in the elevator together.

Y-- remember that?
After "The Hulk" musical?

[ Grunting ]
[ Muzak playing]

Jerry, buttons don't work better
if you hit them harder,

And foam fists
don't make you strong.

I know.
Friends make you strong.

I watched
the same musical you did.

Why couldn't I bring
my portal gun?

[ Winces ]

Why did all the drinks
have to be extra large?

Oh, the Hulk.
I just got that.

Just pee your pants. I did it
the minute we got stuck.

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah,
shame me.

At least when I'm disgusting,
it's on purpose.

Oh, y'all,
we're gonna be fine.

I've always been here for
you guys, and I always will be.

[ Chuckles ]
Somebody call for repairs?

ALL:
Yay! Cousin Nicky!

It's me, cousin Nicky.

I'm walkin' here!
I mean, I'm not.

I'm crouched
in the elevator shaft,

but hey,
I'm walkin' here!

[ laughter ]

It's true.

We really do get into some
crazy situations as a family,

mostly when
we're cooped up like this.

Hey, maybe
Mr. Poopypants is right.

L-let's get
some fresh air.

Come on, cousin Nicky.
You heard Rick.

We have to
stay quarantined

until we know that there's
no more of these things.

I hear you, Morty.

Back in Brooklyn,
we got a sayin' --

"We're walkin' here!"
[ laughter]

Nicky, get --

Oh!
[ gasps ]

[groaning]
What the...?

Cousin Nicky
was a parasite?!

Six, Morty! There's supposed
to be six of us!

If there's seven, then
that means somebody's not real.

But how did you know
it was Nicky?

I guessed. That's why I
aimed for his shoulder.

So we can't trust
any of our memories now?

Nicky was the reason we found
that old Nazi submarine.

Did that
not even happen?

Well,
of course it happened.

Now that I possess
the mighty staff of Rah-gubaba,

the world will tremble
before the Fourth Reich!

This is
the last time

I ask you for help
on my history final, Rick.

Hey, we got a word for Nazis
back in Brooklyn, pal.

I'm comfortable being
called a Nazi.

You think there's some other
word that will hurt my feelings?

Yeah. Think before
you talk shit.

Rah-gubaba,
help me kill America!

ALL:
Mr. Beauregard!

After due consideration,
I have elected not to retire.

- ALL: Yeah!
- Oh, thank god!

Now, I believe someone
has a final exam to attend.

Set a course
for Marty's high school.

Perhaps I'm biased, but if
that story never happened,

then I wouldn't still be
the family butler.

[ Chuckles ]
Dare to dream.

Wait.

And if Mr. Beauregard
wasn't our butler,

it's safe to say the family'd be
in a hell of a lot of trouble.

[ Iaughter]
No! Don't flashback!

You're just gonna make
more swelling.

- Don't worry, Jerry.
- Just relax.

We called
the fire department.

You know they won't
come here anymore.

[grunting ]

[all gasp]

Marmalade is sewed.

- Yeah!
- Yeah! Yeah!

[Jerry laughs]
Oh, whee!

I guess I take back what I said
about British cuisine.

[ laughter ]

[ laughter]
Take that, Summer!

We're trying
to sleep.

I don't want
to go to the dance alone.

MR. BEAUREGARD:
Then perhaps you shouldn't.

Aww.
Mr. Beauregard.

- Shall we, master Morty?
- We shall.

Oh, wait,
don't leave without letting

Photography Raptor
take a picture.

[ Raptor screeches ]
[ camera shutter clicks ]

[ laughter ]

Everybody
stop remembering!

These parasites
are like bed bugs,

and every flashback
is another mattress. Look!

There's only supposed to be
six people in this house.

But there's always
been 10.

No!

Uh, the fact
that I wrote this number down

means that
there's four parasites.

You sure about that,
Rick'?

Begging your pardon,
master Rick,

but I seem to recall
a great deal of confusion

surrounding
that number.

All right,
there's six of us.

[ Belches ]
And that's it.

Me, Morty, Jerry,
Beth, Mr. Poopybutthole,

Frankenstein, Sleepy Gary,
Photography Raptor,

Mr. Beauregard, and Summer.

Uh, dad,
that's like 10 people.

6, 10,
what's the difference?

I just love the number 6
for no reason!

Where's my pencil at?

Here, Rick!
Use me!

Oh, thanks,
Pencilvester!

Yeah, I-| g--
I guess that is what happened,

but I-l don't get
why I would do that.

Everybody makes
mistakes, Rick.

Why do you think
I have one of these?

[ Iaughter,
camera shutter clicks]

That's it.
Photos.

Hard evidence.

You're not in any of my photos,
Mr. Poopybutthole.

Well, what do you know
about this?

You're not in
any of mine.

All I have are pictures of me
and my friends from school.

What? What teenage girl
has pictures of her family?

It's not like we're
Mormon or dying.

I will admit it's suspicious
that Summer's only friend

is a magic ballerina lamb
that we've never seen.

Summer!

Tinkles!

It's past my bedtime.
[ giggles ]

Not in
Never Past Bedtime Land!

Here we go!

It was Tinkles!

Tinkles?

That is su-- [belches] --
suspicious.

We're always hearing about
this Tinkles character,

- But we never get to --
- Hi, everybody.

I'm Tinkles,
and these are my friends.

[all sigh]

See, everyone?
Tinkles is real.

That means so am I.

- Sorry, Summer.
- Man, I'm sorry, Summer.

I was on the wrong side
of the pitchfork on this one.

Okay, look, we shouldn't need
evidence or logic

to know who's family
and who isn't.

I know
who the Smiths are.

I've known Beth
since High School.

And her husband,
sleepy Gary,

is hands down
my absolute best friend.

Thanks, Jerry.

Beyond that,
no offense to any of you,

but all bets
are off.

Look, I'm not used to being
this unsure for this long.

I'm just gonna aim for shoulders
starting with the weird girl.

Aah!

- Grandpa Rick!
- Hold still, "Summer."

Rick,
that is my daughter.

Oh, yeah? Well, what if you just
think that, sleepy Gary?

I've known you for 15 years.
Don't make me hurt you.

Rick, these are
our family and friends,

the people
we barbecue with.

Have you forgotten
the barbecue?

Wait,
why would you want me to --

You're one of them,
aren't you?

Rick. You love
those barbecues, Rick.

You love them.
Hai!

Remember it,
Rick?

Shut up, Hamurai!
Shut up, Amish Cyborg!

What is this?
'90s Conan?

ALL:
Remember the barbecue.

Remember the barbecue.

[ Chatter]
You know what, Pencilvester?

It took me my whole life
to realize it,

but I love barbecuing.

- You're good at it, Rick.
- Watch me, baby.

I'm like Tom Cruise from,
um, "Cuisine"

or w-whatever that movie's
called where he makes drinks.

Yeah,
check me out.

I'm like Tom Cruise
from "Cuisine."

[ chuckles ]
Yeah.

Is that what it's called?
"Cuisine"?

Wow!
Hey, everybody.

Let's give it up
for the grillmaster Rick!

Rick!
Rick! Rick!

[all chanting "Rick"]

Wait.

[ Breathing heavily]

Noooooo!

Shoot. Now look.

It's like
a "Where's Waldo?" page.

Can you find me?

Check out
all these zany characters.

We'll be right back
after these messages.

I think
you should put down the gun

and we should get you
to a doctor.

What do you say we take down
these blast shields?

- ALL: yeah.
- I can't do that, sleepy Gary.

All right,
everybody listen to me.

I don't know
if any of you guys are real,

but this house has been infested
with fake loved ones

that spread
through fake memories,

and our planet will be destroyed
if they get out.

[grunts]

But, Rick,
even you have to admit

you do tend
to overreact to stuff.

You guys,
we got to hurry.

I just got back
from Walmart.

They're selling Nintendo 3DS
systems for $149.99 on sale,

plus every time you buy one,
you get a $50 gift card.

Brings the total price down
to $110 after tax.

Now, listen, we can flip
those sons of bitches

for 230 bucks
apiece easy!

They're all limited-edition
"Zelda" ones.

Hurry! Hurry!
Come with me!

We can be rich,
and we also all get to keep one

and we can play
Nintendo games!

Nintendo,
give me free stuff.

Okay, yes, I definitely
remember doing that,

but also,
I would never do that.

Don't overreact, Rick.

Sleepy Gary, a word?
Sure, Jerry.

Rick, keep a
level head, okay?

'Cause I'll tell you a secret
about Frankenstein --

He's actually
Frankenstein's monster.

Sleepy Gary,
m-my head is filled

with memories
of our friendship.

I'm convinced
that you're Beth's husband

and I'm your friend,

but if those memories
can't be trusted, then...

Jerry,
just say it.

Sleepy Gary,
how do we know I'm real?

Jesus, Jerry.

No, you're real.

Hey,
look at me.

Now, I don't know
which way is up out there,

but I know us,
and you're real, Jerry.

Remember our vacation?

They're filming that new "Star
Wars" movie down the coast.

Should we
check it out?

Sure. Why not?

Maybe we'll see
Chewbacca.

I'd like that.

[moaning ]

What are we doing?

I don't give a damn
what else happens out there.

You and I
are going to survive this.

Okay.

Hey,
we agreed.

Never in the house.

That's a cool watch
there, Rick.

Can I
check it out?

Uh, no thank --
[grunts]

Okay.

Trying
to figure out

how to lower
the blast shields, huh?

Anybody here
think it's suspicious

that a lot of people in here
can't wait to get out of here?

Ah, you're paranoid, Rick.
You've been paranoid since 'Nam.

So,
what are you gonna do

when you rotate back
to the world, Frankenstein?

Shi-i-i-i-t.
I'mma bust a --

[grunts] No!
Get out of my head, parasite!

- No!
- Drop it.

Give me the gun,
Frankenstein!

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Give it back!

Yeah!
[ applause ]

Frankenstein!

[ Breathing heavily]
ls anyone here even real?

Am I the only real person
on Earth?!

REVERSE GIRAFFE:
Maybe.

Or maybe, just maybe,
we're all real.

You know me.
I'm Reverse Giraffe.

I have a short neck
and legs.

I went to college
with Hamurai. Hai!

I saved Ghost In A Jar's
life in Vietnam.

Boo rah!
And, Beth, how many times

have I been a shoulder
for you to cry on?

[sighs]
Too many.

Okay,
so maybe we're just all fake.

That don't make
no sense!

Or maybe there's only one
deceiver here --

The person
that keeps telling us

the path to salvation
is being held prisoner

and mistrusting
each other.

Hey,
don't blame me!

I tried to shoot Summer
10 minutes ago!

I know we all have
beloved memories of Rick,

but are we really
supposed to believe

that a mad scientist inventor
with a flying car

just showed up on our doorstep
after being gone for years?

Yeah, you know,
he does have

a lot of really weird,
made-up sounding catchphrases.

Wubba lubba dub dub!

Ricky ticky tavi, beyotch!

And that's the wa-a-a-a-y
the news goes.

Hit the sack,
Jack.

Uh-oh!
Somersault jump.

AIDS!

And that's why I always say
shum shum shlippedy dop!

Grassss tastes bad-ah.

No jumpin'
in the sewer.

Burger time!

Rubber baby
baby bunkers!

Lick, lick,
lick my balls!

[ Iaughs ]
Yeah!

Say that all the time.

[all muttering]

That's a fake-ass catchphrase
right there.

Yeah, don't forget
his incredibly vague back story.

Beth,
I'm your father!

Oh, are you, dad?
Are you?

Rick, if you want
to prove you're real,

just do what any of the rest
of us would do and --

and -- and open
the blast shields

and let us
the hell out of here!

Why don't you make me,
implausibly naive pubescent boy

with an old Jewish
comedy writer's name?

Ooh!
Ooh! Ooh!

WOMAN:
In your face!

Give me the gun.

I'm not doing this
in front of Pencilvester.

Bring him
to the garage.

[all cheering]

You listen to me, you
son of a bitch parasite scum.

We could either do this
the easy way or the hard way.

You know, y-y-y--
do you want to live?

Then open
the blast shield doors.

Shut up, Morty,
you brainwashed, little turd

that might not even be real
because I'm brainwashed, too.

You know, Rick,
this isn't easy for us.

You know, w-we all remember
you as a friend.

Oh, oh, oh,
really?

Well, I remember you as a whiny,
little piece of shit, Morty!

- Oh -- oh, yeah?
- Yeah!

I've got
about a thousand memories

of your dumb, little ass and
about six of them are pleasant.

The rest
is annoying garbage.

So why don't you do us both
a favor and pull the trigger?

Do it!
Do it, motherfucker!

Pull
the fucking trigger!

- [ Screeches ]
- Oh, wow.

Baby Wizard
was a parasite?

He set me up
with my wife.

[ Screeches ]
- What the hell?

I figured it out, Rick!

The parasites can only create
pleasant memories.

I know
you're real

because I have a ton
of bad memories with you!

Listen, Beth, don't torture yourself.

I made a similar mistake
years ago,

but, you know,
on a planetary scale.

Is, um,
is he mad at me?

He's not
pressing charges.

I mean, that's got to be
the "You shot me" equivalent

of not being mad.

Can he
have visitors?

He'd like
to be alone.

He told me
to tell you he's sorry

you didn't have bad
memories of him?

If you love him,
you should leave.

And that's the wa-a-a-a-y
the news goes.

[screaming ]

MAN:
Did you get any of that?

MAN:
It's-a good show-a.

Taken purely as a FPS, High on Life is average at best. Gun-play and enemy variety are functional but uninspired. The story is about as basic an A to B adventure as you can get. While the gameplay loop essentially boils down to accept a bounty, buy some upgrades, kill bounty and repeat. There's no real challenge here or reward for any deviation from the main plot whatsoever - no side missions, worthwhile collectables, fun lore titbits - nada

What does make the game clever overall though is that it's self-aware. The gun-play and gameplay loop aren't meant to be revolutionary. These elements are designed to be smooth and serviceable while the humour and personality of the characters elevate the material. Ultimately, this worked for me but I enjoy this kind of humour. If you don't - High on Life needs to be avoided like the plague

Honestly i despise this game. Horrible obnoxious comedy from Justin Roiland over an alright fps game. The art style is fine, and the music from Tobacco is nice as well, and i like the idea of guns that talk to you. But the guns NEVER STOP TALKING. They will not shut the hell up, especially the Justin Roiland gun. Its half way between a movement shooter and something like modern Doom and achieves neither. The guns lack impact as well. Overall an annoying and obnoxious mess of a game. I hope to never think about this ever again.

Tenia ganas de jugar un juego que no requiera pensar demasiado y este titulo es perfecto para esta ocasión. Las mecánicas de movimiento están buenas, las armas al no tener munición te preocupas menos por ser conservador y mas por disparar como enfermo mental y los chistes rancios sobre temas bien turbios me hacían cagar de risa. En resumen si te gusta Rick And Morty, y además te gustan los shooters metele, si no te bancas los chistes ni lo intentes jugar porque son constantes. 6/10 le saco un par de puntos porque no tiene mucha Re-jugabilidad, no hay misiones secundarias y entiendo que es un doble A pero yo lo tuve que jugar en un HDD y las pantallas de carga eran eternas, en una me fui a preparar un mate y volví y no había terminado. Muchas veces no terminaba de cargar el mapa y le tenia que meter pausa, me saco mucho de la inmersión. Como cosa positiva dura lo suficiente como para no cansarte y eso se agradece

This was an overall solid game that doesnt drag itself out which feels good now a days. The comedy in the game is pretty good and the story is pretty much a fever dream idea, but the whole game feels like a fever dream. The weapon mechanics are my favorite part of the game and are fun to mess around with and the comedy is pretty good as well. If your looking for a shorter run and gun shooter with a funny story then play this game although the ending was pretty abrupt, but not surprising given how the game is. 6/10. (Edited This a month after playing through the game and my rating dropped from a 6.5 to a 5.5 the combat is pretty much the only fun thing in the game since the story is me)
