The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A moody, dialogue-driven supernatural thriller where player choices shape a tense, character-focused story.

What players say
Players describe Oxenfree as a slow-paced, story-driven walking simulator with a spooky atmosphere but little danger. The dialogue timer and characters' voice acting are praised, though some find the pacing tedious and the teenagers' writing unrealistic. Split on how scary it is, with some calling it mild. Bugs like getting stuck on stairs are reported.
