Bought this game and played it multiple times on different platforms. Bought it on the huge sale going on right now to support the devs, and to write this review to encourage others to pick it up.

i first played OXENFREE in around 2018 or so. i remember it leaving me with a very strong impression, playing it six years later i felt that impression once again. at its core oxenfree is an adventure game, it's pretty dead-simple in terms of gameplay, which is a good thing. i could very easily see oxenfree being someone's very first video game, it feels almost designed in such a way to do that. it's also available on most platforms i can think people would have on-hand, including mobile and even as a part of netflix games (i dont actually know how that works, i just know that it's there.) navigation isn't exactly hard, and a majority of the gameplay is exploring screens with very few branching paths, it's all very railroaded, though that's not to say there isn't stuff to explore. on top of the main teen drama ghost story, there's a few collectibles and whatnot that give a bit of extra understanding to what exactly's going on, i think it's neat, and not really that much effort to get everything. the MAIN main stuff is the dialogue. there's a lot of it, and i really think you grow to like these characters (or hate, i liked them) along the course of the story. there's a few options i wish were maybe available, but i don't think their lack of inclusion necessarily harms the story. oh and it's got a really good vibe. music's good, zones are neat. ghosts. weird geometry if you're afraid of that. it's nice and goes on sale pretty cheap, and i did two playthroughs in about 11 hours.

Pretty neat small adventure game with mystery elements. The thing I did dislike is controls in some places: walking takes a lot of time and mouse click cannot handle climbing, the character simply gets stuck. Other than that, very good. The sound design is top-notch as well. Beautiful music, good voice acting.

Dec. 2023

Beautiful game - so well made and evocative. Interesting that it was produced by Netflix as it's got a very modern retro horror series vibe - not unlike Stranger Things. Very much riffing on those old teen horror movies of yesteryear and nailing it pretty much every time. It also has the kind of magical writing that has you thinking back on your own teenage years as you play - old friends and the stupid things you used to get up to. A wonderful gaming experience all round.

Dec. 2023

Very cool little game, slightly scary with more psychological horror than actual horror. the game has multiple endings depending on how you treat your friends, so be consistent in whatever you do. oh and the voice acting is excellent, some of the best I've ever heard
