However, when Oxenfree does such an amazing job of establishing mood and tone through voice work and pacing, the need to reboot thanks to a glitch is pretty awful. Were this an 80 hours experience, I don't think I'd be as bummed by freezes. This experience is so small and tight that these glitches work a bit extra against the game. Thanks to the nature of the game, I thought maybe the island was playing tricks on me like Metal Gear used to do. Each time, the loading screen would appear, not move and be accompanied by a glitching sound. Outside of the enjoyable conversations, Oxenfree conveys its increasingly startling world with a simple painterly art style and ridiculously immersive audio design thats creative, evocative, and. I'd say Oxenfree completely stalled three times. Instead, it would happen right as I'd exit one area and wait to load into another. It never happened while I was walking around small scenes. The game, unfortunately, crashed a few times during play for me. Perhaps if I'd played it on the PC, I wouldn't have had these problems.
The adventure is rather short, but it's so tight with its mystery and fun that it plays really well. Whether it's through time loops in the games, sudden jump scares (which happen sporadically enough to work) and mood altering dialogue, this game is perfect at keeping the pace rolling. Oxenfree does a great job when it comes to toying with the player. Without giving away the twists and turns, you'll need to explore the island, investigate these odd disturbances with your radio and, at times, rescue your friends.
You take Alex into a cave, fire up your radio, physically tune it to specific stations and, essentially, unleash something very nasty. The party's a bust, and that leaves this group of five on an island overnight with nothing to do. When they get there, they find only Nona and Clarissa waiting. They're supposed to be going to a massive beach party with their friends. She, her step brother Jonas and her friend Ren are on a boat making their way to an abandoned island that's home to only a recently deceased old woman and an old military fort. Oxenfree starts off as the main character, Alex, brings a small radio onto a boat.
