I won’t be comparing it to 2-D horror games only as that would be a disservice to the many great titles the genre has churned out over the years, I’d like to list games like Oxenfree that I personally believe are able to pull off the horror aspect better.īut like I said horror is subjective (Till the lights go off and you see Jason out your bedroom window). Oxenfree plays in a 2/2.5-D with beautiful oil pastel drawn like backgrounds and a surreal atmosphere thanks to the sound design and believable voice acting. In Oxenfree you play as one of the teenagers from a group going out to party before things spiral downwards, typical 80s horror kids, energetic and dumb. Honestly, the game is more of a throwback to the 80’s rampant horror classics such as Evil Dead, Nightmare on Elm Street, etc. Related read: 15 Games Like 7 Days to Die You’ll Love to Play Games like Oxenfree won’t scare you as much, or perhaps would scare you more, that cannot deny the beauty and uniqueness of the game. Do not be alarmed the title is not a typo, Oxenfree sets out to be a horror game, and while personally, I was unphased it doesn’t speak to the quality of the work and passion the developer has poured in the title. Oxenfree is a horror game that I did not find scary. What scares one person will not necessarily be scary for the next.
