8/10
Some of the most natural dialogue ever designed for a video game – in terms of quality and interaction – helps to make a superior supernatural thriller.

Flawed controls
Tried to play it but couldn't. The game decides that my steering wheel which I use for simracing and which is plugged in always to the PC is a suitable controller for this game. And there's no way of telling the game otherwise. I didn't find it worth bothering with.

EPIC!!!
I bought this for my phone... Then I bought it for my 12.9" iPad Pro... Then I found out they have a windows version, so I can play it on my 27" touch screen... Short story, third purchase is the charm!

Buy this game right now.
Oxenfree was amazing in almost every aspect. The soundtrack, the visuals, the story, the charachters, the universe, all fantastic. There's only a few things I can say I didn't really like. The controls are kind of finnicky and too weighty, and the dialogue gets cut off or messed with based on stuff you do while it's being spoken. Those things are just small nitpicks though, and totally don't harm the game in any real way. Absolutely worth it's full asking price.
