If you are tired of the same old serious military shooters and want something that is completely out of its mind, High On Life is exactly what you need. Created by the comedic minds behind Rick and Morty, this bizarre title is easily one of the most hilarious and weirdest additions to the world of PC Games. It throws away all the gritty realism and instead hands you a bunch of talking alien guns that literally will not shut up. It is vibrant, unapologetically crude, and an absolute must-play if you just want to sit back, relax, and laugh until your sides hurt.
Storyline
The plot kicks off with a totally absurd premise: an alien cartel invades Earth, but they don't want to destroy us—they want to smoke us. Humans are being harvested as the universe's newest recreational drug. You play as an ordinary high school graduate who suddenly becomes an intergalactic bounty hunter. Partnered up with a washed-up alien mentor and a foul-mouthed pistol named Kenny, you have to travel across weird alien planets, hunt down the cartel bosses, and save humanity from being stuffed into a cosmic bong. It is absolutely ridiculous in the best way possible.
Gaming Experience
When it comes to the actual gameplay, it is a surprisingly solid and chaotic first-person shooter. The real stars of the show are your weapons, known as Gatlians. Each gun has its own distinct personality, alternative fire mode, and a constant stream of commentary on your skills—or lack thereof. You will use them to shoot, slice, and grapple your way through colorful, maze-like levels while taking down alien goons. Hunting for upgrades and hidden jokes makes exploring these weird worlds super rewarding. It brings a breath of fresh air to PC Games, proving that sometimes, you just need a game that doesn't take itself seriously at all to have an amazingly fun time.
