It's a unique mix that should make Night School's future productions ones to watch, and this an auspicious debut. And now the creepy adventure is something you can play on your phone, as the previously console- and PC-exclusive game has come to iOS. It's more subtle than that, and less demanding of your time.)Д«esides its unique approach to game storyline delivery, which I think will be studied and copied in the future, Oxenfree shows some smart thinking about the relationship between games and players. (Note that I am not saying that Oxenfree makes you play it over and over again. The game plays with time-shifting, and does so in a way that encourages multiple playthroughs, and it seems to be quite aware that a second playthrough of a videogame is, in and of itself, a sort of time-loop, a repeating of the past in an effort to change it. I don't want to spoil anything, but Oxenfree's final moments have some interesting meta-commentary. But the way it finishes may leave you with more questions than answers, and given its relatively short turnaround (and opportunities to alter the dialogue with your choices), you may decide to immediately start it up and play it through again.

It feels like less because it moves so quickly and so intriguingly from bit to bit. You'll finish Oxenfree in about four hours, give or take. Interrupt someone, and they might come back later to what they'd been talking about, in a way that sometimes sounds almost too natural to have been pulled up on the fly by a computer program. Various speech bubbles pop up around her head, and you can select an option (or not) if you want to interject an opinion. It didn't take long before I found myself quite invested in these characters, interested in the dynamics that quickly popped up between them-and being asked to make some on-the-fly decisions about what Alex, the protagonist, should say or do. It sounds like a natural, vibrant conversation, and it moves fast. The lines of dialogue, precisely and wittily written and delivered, come fast and furious. Its unique approach to game storytelling is apparent from its first moments, as we watch a group of teenagers chatter while riding a ferry to a nearby island.
