A supernatural teen thriller about a group of friends who unwittingly open a ghostly rift.
You are Alex, and you’ve just brought your new stepbrother Jonas to an overnight island party gone horribly wrong.
What is Oxenfree?
Oxenfree is a single player game that’s equal parts coming-of-age tale and supernatural thriller. You play as Alex, a bright, rebellious teenaged girl who brings her new stepbrother Jonas to an overnight party on a decommissioned military island. The festivities are framed by a dangerous sneak to a forbidden beach, celebrating with friends and navigating prickly situations with enemies. But the night takes a horrifying turn when you unwittingly open a ghostly rift spawned from the island’s cryptic past. How you deal with these events, your peers, and the ominous creatures you’ve unleashed is up to you.
YOU determine every aspect of Alex's story while exploring Edwards Island, uncovering the base's dark past, and changing the course of your friends' lives.
The game sounds rad! I can’t wait to play it, but I was actually looking for the definition of “oxen-free.”
Oh, right. Depends on who you ask… one version of the story says it started as a German phrase, “alle alle auch sind frei,” which loosely translates to “everyone, everyone is free.” Another side says it was “all ye all ye outs in free,” essentially saying, “it’s safe to come in.” We know it from years of hide ‘n’ seek.
Aus einem Steam Review: If you're a fan of games such as the TellTale Games titles as well games such as Life Is Strange, I can guarantee you will LOVE this game.
