Very much enjoyed!
I have pretty much the same major complaint as everyone else: the walk speed.
It's fine when you're walking through an area for the first time, but when you're backtracking, looking for the ONE [spoiler]anomaly[/spoiler] that you missed, it can be verrry tedious. Otherwise, the game was fun, the music good, the story captivating and the characters people who I ended up caring about!
8.5/10

Great game! I love the overall artwork of it, and the storyline is incredible. Supposedly, I have a hatred towards my step brother, but I just don't see it... unless he comes within fifty feet of me!

I highly recommend this game! It's very enjoyable and I really love that its the type of game you can play multiple times to get a different ending from the last. I recently referred this game to all my friends, both who do and don't have steam, who may hopefully take as much interest in this game as I did the first time I played Oxenfree, and hope for them to download it too!!

It's like Night In The Woods and Little Nightmares had a little average-looking baby you don't quite know how to feel about... The story is fun and all, dialogues are great and there are a lot of possibilities to go through the game, but the gameplay is also kinda boring with so many down times. Overall, good game to get on discount and play for a solid 4-ish hours. I don't feel like continuing the timeline after I finished and it's even less likely that I'll play it again in anytime soon. But I'll probably buy the second game, yeah.
Like I said: "little average-looking baby you don't quite know how to feel about" pretty much sums up.

7/10 with a thumbs-up from me. Play it if you think it sounds interesting. I think you'll get the most enjoyment out of this game if you play it multiple times, but I just wasn't tempted to. Still not entirely sure what was all happening. Basically, I thought it was a decent game across the board - gameplay was decent, story and writing were decent, and design was decent. Nothing exceptional, however.

Yes, the game is a bit of a walking simulator, but it's really well-balanced with great character dialogues and secrets on the radio. (Point-and-click to walk makes walking easier on PC, although you might have to use the arrow keys if you get stuck while climbing.) It can be frustrating to restart dialogue choices as well, and I found myself restarting scenes to figure out what the best path might be. But even though the gameplay can feel a bit tedious, I really don't regret playing the game at all! If you like visual novels, it's definitely fun, and the horror and mystery's very great overall.

This game scared the shit out of me five years ago when I watched a partial playthrough. But even so it sat in the back of my mind for this whole time. Something in my head decided that I should just buy it and play it myself, and so I did and I don't regret a single moment of it. This game is amazing.
