Oxenfree is a supernatural adventure game. Rites of passage and Senior year traditions set the stage for a group of friends sneaking off to Edwards Island, an old military outpost with no phone service. Players will take on the role of Alex as she brings her new stepbrother Jonas to an overnight party gone horribly wrong. Inspired by classic cult films like Stand by Me and Poltergeist, Oxenfree is an adventure that pulls from the past but looks to the present. “It’s a coming of age story where players control how their hero comes of age,” says Sean Krankel, co-founder of Night School. “We’re drawing on the fond and mortifying aspects of being in your late teens, and setting it against a dangerous and ghostly backdrop.”

Story

Olly Olly OXENFREE ==================== Writing a review for this game is challenging without spoiling parts of the story. So, I will not go into what the story is about, but all I’m going to say is that it goes into the supernatural. The story is okay, nothing mind blowing, so are the characters. However, It’s amazing how they added branching into the story without making the “big decisions” seem like major influences on the outcome. For instance, you’d finish the game and not really know which choice exactly led to the ending you got, which is not the case for a lot of these "choose your fate" games. They tried to make the story the main mechanic of the game, and it just works. I would honestly recommend you play the game in a short time period so you don’t end up forgetting what happens and losing track of the story, because you might not understand the ending otherwise. The only thing I didn’t like about the game is how fast the dialogue options were…sometimes I didn’t even have enough time to read all the options. On the other hand, the walking speed felt too slow and could have been a little faster. TL;DR: Overall, the game is pretty good, and it’s worth a playthrough if you’re into the supernatural. And you can get this game for free if you have a netflix subscription

Story

The story of Oxenfree is rather intriguing, and the visuals and sound design/music help bring that out, in my opinion. There are certain scenes that I felt were unnecessary to move the plot forward (that could also be triggering to viewers with no background knowledge of the game), but beyond that, the mystery was well done and I do look forward to go back and see the other endings (yes, there's more than one ending)!

Les visuels sont magnifiques, les bo super, le jeu cool, les dialogues vont par contre un peu trop vite, compliqué pour les non anglophones.

Игра самма по себе имеет довольно интересный сюжет. Единственное что может оттолкнуть, это постоянное использования радио. Но мне не надоело и в целом понравилось.
