Oxenfree game ost7/7/2023 It has a satisfying narrative that can be seen through to the end over the course of an evening or two, but it’s the cast of refreshingly complex characters - sans the stereotypical teen angst garbage these games often rely upon - and the dynamic relationships between them that really carries the story. It actually makes having conversations with NPCs a joy to have, and that’s no small feat. What surprised me is how well it works as a game and as a delivery device for a surprisingly emotional story. The audio/visual stuff is top notch, particularly the former, which benefits from some stellar sound design, quality voice acting and the OST I mentioned earlier. There’s a lot to love about this charming ghost story, and I did my best to go over all of it in my review. The soundtrack is fantastic, but it isn’t the best thing about Oxenfree. The deliciously atmospheric OST is the work of SCNTFC ( Sword and Sworcery), and it may very well be my favorite video game OST of 2016 thus far. Night School Studios has announced they’re bringing the original soundtrack for their supernatural teen thriller Oxenfree to vinyl, courtesy of the fine folks at iam8bit.
