Jul 16, 2023After Oxenfree was sitting in my backlog for few years and started playing it only because the second game came out and I missed a lot. The game is fricking amazing. It's dark and someway depressing, but awesome storytelling.

Jul 14, 2023Easily one of my favourite games of all time. Expert storytelling and probably the best voice acting in any game I've played. Just finished the sequel and the pair of them are so well done. Could not recommend this game more and I can't wait to see what Nightschool does next.

Dec 29, 2021Got it for $1.99 on sale on eShop today, 12/29/21. Highly recommended for the art and music for that price. Also, it's a good time kill.

Dec 25, 2020I liked everything from AV, atmosphere and a little Stranger Things vibe. The only thing that I didn't like was too much of a silly dialog, which destroys the whole secret aura. Auto save could work better too, I had to repeat like 20 minutes section with a lot of unskippable dialog because of checkpoint issue.

Jun 7, 2020What a fantastic game. Uncomfortably brilliant writing and the best voice acting I've ever seen in a game.
The long load screens sometimes take you out of the immersion, but wow, the rest of it, is just amazing. -

Jan 24, 2019The first game I played on the Switch. I had some fun, but at times it seemed to me a little boring. Sometimes the story did not captivate me. However, it is worth trying for the price.

Oct 28, 2018Captivating story, beautiful visuals, fantastic voice acting and a short but lovely ride. Can recommend this for anyone looking for a story-driven game. 4.99 on the e-shop during most sales - a bargain for what you get.

May 19, 2018Oxenfree is a good game. With amazing history, music and dubbing, anyone who likes the "walking simulator" genre will enjoy the game.
-
Nov 13, 2017Thanks to its remarkable character development, well written dialogue and overall quality of the plot, Oxenfree is certain to strike a chord with fans of story-driven games, even if its length is rather short but that ends up being minimal when faced with the game's surprising developments.
-
Oct 30, 2017It’s an intriguing story, and one I feel is worthwhile experiencing so long as you’re not put off by a lack of moment to moment game-like elements. It’s just a shame that Oxenfree’s design genius is at odds with its pacing.
