## Description
A fan visual novel based off the January 2015 game by Dontnod Entertainment, [Life Is Strange](http://lifeisstrange.com/).

The visual novel follows the story of Max Caulfield in her second year at Blackwell Academy. She’s spent the last year reuniting with her best friend, Chloe Price, and meeting and getting to know the other students of Blackwell, like Kate Marsh, Rachel Amber, and Victoria Chase.

Love is Strange is set in a normal alternate universe, and Max does not possess any time powers whatsoever (and Rachel Amber is very much alive). There’s also no secret conspiracies and hidden bunkers; this AU is completely normal and peaceful, and through your choices, a happy one. The game hopes to capture a sense of growing adolescence and love, built by bonds through time and moments of compassion.
