![]() ![]() I want to check that out at some point, but I just can't keep up with game releases, and Mass Effect is in two days! I considered creating a thread about Night in the Woods when it released, since I know a lot of folks here dig these sorts of games, but figured I shouldn't if I couldn't at least recommend it myself. It's a little goofier looking (in that it has anthropomorphic animals), but it received good reviews and apparently tells an interesting story. I don't mean to hijack your thread, but has anyone played Night in the Woods? It looks like it plays almost exactly like Oxenfree. It just nails that creepy atmosphere and aesthetic and I love it. I think of all the games in that "genre" (in which I include Telltale games, Life is Strange, Gone Home, etc.), Oxenfree is still my favorite. I'll have to jump in and do that at some point. I think I originally played the game on Steam, though, before they added NG+. My PS4 ate my save before I could play through New Game+. I still have Mass Effect Andromeda and presumably Destiny 2 to play, but I can't imagine that Oxenfree isn't going to be in my top five games I've played this year. So not only does the game have multiple endings based on what you do and say, even individual conversations have mini-branches depending on both what you say and even when you say it!Īnd the voice work is good. And your friends will react if you cut them off sometimes. Or, a lot of the time, you can tap one of the bubbles early and interrupt someone and 90% of the time it changes the flow of the conversation or at least forces the other person to stop talking and hear what you have to say. You can tap on them at the appropriate time and respond to a comment or questions after the other person finished talking. You can not tap a bubble and stay silent and your friends will react to that. Instead of being "cutscene" based like Mass Effect or The Witcher 3 or Life Is Strange, you and your friends move and converse in real time and when it's about time for the character you are controlling to speak or respond you get between one and three speech bubbles to tap on. didn't I just say this? Anyway, the game is a fantastic point and click-ish adventure with one of the most satisfying dialogue systems I've ever played with. So, Oxenfree came out for iOS the other day, and. even though the basic story feels like its going in mostly the same direction so far. I'm still playing through it but man oh man am I on the edge of my seat because I don't know what will happen or when now. which is way earlier than the ghosts could have done that in the original timeline! And Alex got possessed by the ghosts before you take the skyway lift thingy for the first time. I've been transported a few minutes ahead in the story at least once so far at a completely unexpected time. Alex is remembering things from the previous loop, the ghosts are static-ing in at completely unexpected points. ![]() I'm only a bit in on the New Game+ "Continue Timeline" version and it's like even better. The game was a nice level of creepy the first time through. you know what, let's just jump straight into the spoiler tag.ĭO NOT.

Players control Alex, who brings her new stepbrother Jonas to an overnight party gone wrong off the coast of their hometown. After the preview, the developers explained why they opted for older protagonists when the first Oxenfree had worked so well with high schoolers - just as several other big hits in the genre, like Life.
