Bof, ennuyant, voir irritant

C'est verbeux comme du sirop trop collant, impossible d'avoir un instant de silence, d'explorer tranquillement ou de profiter de l'atmosphère. Vos side-kick parlent en permanence et ne vous laisse jamais seule. Ils sont irritant ou inintéressant, résultat lorsqu'ils meureunt devant vos yeux (parfois 2 fois, la mort est définitive c'est ça qui est terrible, au bout de la deuxième fois on s'habitue...) aucune empathie, aucun sentiment de perte (on voudrais que Ren meure par contre puisqu'on ne peut pas lui dire : ferme ta G...). J'ai fini par laisser mes pots de colle blablatter tout seuls et explorer mais le jeu te dirige et te dis quoi faire donc impossible d'avancer sans obéir. Et une demi-seconde pour choisir parmi 3 réponses sans intérêts donne l'impression de jouer à un jeu de réflexe. Les énigmes ? Rien de logique là dedans, on avance à tâton pour passer au tableau suivant. Les passages avec la radio, ça sert à quoi, quel effet ? Et en plus, ils se permettent des boucles de gameplay chiantes. Le coté spooky, horror show ? Je déteste les films d'horreur, les thrillers. A aucun moment, je n'ai sursauté. Des jump scare éculés, des bruits trop fort, des éclairs lumineux, des voix creepy, en gros tout les clichés et poncifs des films d'horreur des années 80 mais tellement mal mis en place... Les graphismes ? C'est le seul point positif du jeu. Les décors sont beau, bien fait. On aimerait que les personnages n'avancent pas comme des tortues parce que les chemins sont tortueux et il y a du backtracking. Et surtout que les side-kick se taisent pour profiter du bruit de la mer, des grillons enfin que sais-je ? Une ambiance d'ile, la nuit... J'ai abandonné avant la fin. J'ai d'autres jeux à tester et sur lesquels je m'amuserai mieux. J'ai pris 3h (sur les 5h que dure apparement le jeu) pour voir, j'ai vu, je passe.

A great experience

Well, I haven't played or read or seen anything about this not-so-horror horror type of theme, and Oxenfree is definitely a great first-time experience for me. Just...Would've loved to play for a few more rounds for the other endings, yet I think my patience had been lost to the time. Damn, how I missed my childhood where I could be absorbed in a game or a book for several days. And to the devs: Thank you.

Extradimensional shenanigans galore

TL;DR: Play this for the story and/or the atmosphere. These are the strongest points of this game, and they ARE strong. Overall, this game earned its money from me. I wish I bought this when it wasn't on a promotion, just because I want the game devs to get more money for how enjoyable an experience this was. Worth every bit of cash. The bad: * the game is not very replayable, though I easily got two run-throughs out of it. I'll let you decide whether it's a good or a bad thing. It was a high-quality experience both times, getting a better ending the second time * the teen drama mentioned in other reviews - it's mostly OK and bearable. The good: * the sense of atmosphere is phenomenal * the game has a conversation mechanic that I've never seen. It's walk-and-talk, you literally pick the conversation options as you walk-and-talk across the landscape with your companion(s). It's quite fluid and a pleasant change from 1-to-1 "freeze the world" convos from Fallout etc. * extra-dimensional shenanigans and horror! What more could you possibly want? I mean it, kinda. This has some Gravity Falls vibes if you've watched that, but with more mature themes and older characters. * haven't expected to say this ever for a 2D adventure game, but the VFX are on-point and very satisfying * the central mystery is pretty cool, and with a plot twist I wasn't quite expecting. * the radio is fairly cool side-mechanic for solving puzzles and backstory exposure. The meh: * there is no ability to run, fast-travel, or otherwise accelerate your journey across the island. Sometimes you'll do a wrong turn, and have to endure long stretches of walking silently with your companions. Even with Syberia, where you CAN run, was annoying in this aspect. * convo replies are timed. You either say your bit, or the options fade away as you choose to say nothing. Might be bad if you can't make up your mind fast enough, or if it reminds you too much of IRL. Might be good if you wanna RP the silent type.

Fantastic narrative adventure

If you are the kind of person who enjoys the narrative potential of the videogame format, this game is for you. The writing and characters shine, with plenty of memorable moments. My only complaint is that getting around can be a slog the second or third time around, and besides dialogue there is not a whole lot to do gameplay-wise. But if you are willing to accept such compromises for an awesome genre aware supernatural story, a fantastic concept, an engaging mystery, and an absolute god-tier soundtrack, I cannot recommend this enough.

Surprisingly well crafted

Oxenfree lives up to most of the tropes you expect out of an indie Point-and-Click game on the surface. The graphics are fairly simple, there obvious mechanics you expect for the genre are simplified to the point that some are non-existant, and it’s about a teen-girl in generic horror situation X. But if you dig deeper, you find the horror situation is executed with extreme talent and skill, making it much more involving then you would ever expect, the obvious mechanics missing are taken over by new subtle and exceedingly well crafted ones, and the graphics while simple, are used exceptionally well along side the sound to create one hell of an eerie atmosphere that will keep you rolling. Simply put this game is going to come out of left-field to those that look past the obvious, and in fairly refreshing way. It won’t challenge you much in the traditional sense, but you will be left wondering which choices you made and how you talked to the other characters affected your end result. If this intrigues you and you have a taste for creepy games, you might want to give this game a shot. But you still might want to wait for a sale since, like many games of this type, it is actually very short (I finished it in under 4 hours). However, if you are looking for a challenge to finish the game rather then to see your way to the best ending (which in itself could be up to you to decide), this game is simply not made with you in mind.
