Life is Strange is one of those games I keep meaning to play if I can find the time, as I feel like I would enjoy it from what I know.

This is a more complex cover than it might at first appear. Obviously the central focus is the color photograph of the main character that looks taped to the page, which is a nice touch. But it's actually the background artwork that I like most about the cover, with sketches that look like they could be doodles done by a teenager on a whim, while still having a really nice aesthetic. The lighthouse and cliff edge are particularly interesting, and suggestive of some kind of mystery in which the character in the picture is involved. While the story aspects are vague, there's an undeniable sense of atmosphere that I find very intriguing.

I feel the cover isn't groundbreaking enough to give a higher score, but it still has a unique look and makes me want to check out this game more.
