Lots of slow walking but good story

Note: I'm rating the Steam version. I'm hoping that GOG's version is the same since I've seen many reviews with different opinions regarding other games... Pros - Definitely visually appealing with a slightly painted style - Atmospheric feeling enhanced by equally atmospheric soundtrack - Fun radio feature which you can toggle and tweak Cons - Limited exploration and VERY slow walking pace - Short amount of time to respond in a conversation in which sometimes I wouldn't get a word in because I was still trying to think of what to choose and the game would just move right along... Disclaimer: I never got around to finishing it but I'm not sure I'm that motivated to do so. It has some good features but there are some things that hold it back from being great.

There's a Game Here?

Do you like annoying voice acting consisting of millennial hipsters? Do you like walking from point A to point B while hearing the banter of millennial hipsters? Do you think games have too much action, too difficult puzzles and too much excitement? Then this is the 'game' for you. I played for about 30 minutes stopped, uninstalled this 'game' and made my mission in life to warn people about this 'game'.

Horrible Doalog Design = Horrible Game

Simply put, if your "game" is discussion driven by dialog choices, and understanding what's happening in the game requires listening to dialog, the the dialog mechanic had better be top notch. It's downright stupid to make the main game mechanic be speed-reading-required dialog choices that 9 times out of 10 cause your character to interrupt whoever is currently speaking. You literally have something like 5 seconds to listen to what's being said to you, read the 2 or 3 optional responses and choose one before your options disappear and you "whatever" your friends. And, yeah, then you simply blurt out whatever choice was made. Hell, half the time even "looking at" the circles that indicate interaction points with the environment causes the main character to interrupt the person speaking. This means that not only is is very difficult to make the choice that you want to make when speaking, but it's almost impossible to hear all of what another character has to say if you plan to explore your environment as well. One common suggestion is to simply hit pause every time there's a dialog choice. Another is to use a mod that slows down game play. These both work for the speed that the dialog options fade but do nothing for the environment clicks or the cutting off of the current speaker. The devs are completely aware of this since an option for slower dialog choices and complete dialog has been a request from hundreds of gamers (including ESL and disabled gamers) for years at this point. The simply do not care. This may be the greatest story ever told, but I'll never know since I'm not going to bother finishing it.

Great game!

Holy sh*t I love this game way more than I imagined! I have watched a walk-through on YouTube, after which I decided to buy this game. It doesn't worth £15, I bought it during the summer sale. Although I usually despise teen-drama, the writing is really good, the dialogues sound authentic, as much as I can remember of my youth... It's more of a mystery game rather than a "true" horror, but this doesn't take away from the experience. It's about 6-8 hours, but it is worth at least one replay, especially with the new update! My only problem was that the dialogue-bubbles are disappearing a bit too fast for my taste. Finally I have found a game which I am able to have a positive emotional response to!

A nice change of pace!

I usually avoid games that aren't in my comfort zone, but I'm glad that I went ahead and tried this one. The graphics are low-key, but they don't have to be Unreal Engine quality to make this little gem shine. This is one of those games where you don't know what to expect from one moment to the next, and even if you think you know what's going to happen, you're probably wrong. Oxenfree, while rather short and simple, makes up for it's shortcomings with originality in design. And it's a design that works very well. You'll mostly just be along for the ride, since there's no chance of getting killed. But it's more of an interactive graphic novel than a true game. I usually demand danger from my games, like the Elder Scrolls series or the Far Cry series. But Oxenfree pulled me into an entirely different direction that was new and refreshing. So I encourage you to take a trip on the side-scrolling mystery/adventure. Only.... you may want to wait for it to go on sale. Like I said, it's short, and $20 is just a little steep.
