The story: Alex is a bright, rebellious teenager who brings her new stepbrother, Jonas, to an overnight party on a strange, old military island. But the senior-year tradition takes a scary turn when she stumbles upon the island’s cryptic past in this World War II-inspired supernatural narrative. GamesBeat calls this award-winning thriller "a big next step for adventure games."

Play this adventure story as Alex and change the narrative with your choices in this thriller:

• Explore a haunted island: The scary secrets simmering just beneath the hauntingly beautiful veneer of Edwards Island will forever change your perception of reality. Are you ready for an adventure?

• Contact the supernatural: Rumor has it that if you stand in just the right spot, you can use a radio to tune into a scary station that doesn't exist on Edwards Island. Turn the radio dial, activating ways to save your friends and communicate with ghosts.

• Forge or destroy bonds — your choices matter: Will you encourage your best friend to ask out his crush? Can you close the distance between yourself and your new stepbrother? Be mindful — your choices will impact your relationships and inform how you tackle supernatural threats.

Create your story again and again, with multiple endings driven by your narrative choices.

Ratings and reviews

I would give this 5 stars if there weren't so many bugs. I absolutely love the game, it's very engaging and entertaining. But there are so many times the game has just stopped working and closed. Then I have to start over from the last scene I left off. It's very frustrating. I have played one scene where Jonas and Alex are entering the cave through the bunker FOUR TIMES, and it boots me off every time. Ive had to go through the same 10 minute scene 4 times just to be booted off again. I give up

This game is great! And so cozy! I love the voice acting! It's like a choose your own adventure movie with really good atmospheric vibes. And pretty easy controls. Not sure why there's so many low votes but honestly didn't expect it to be so good and immersive. Edit- After reading, I see some people were having issues. It seems to be fixed now! I'm afte the caves and everything is working just fine. Also download speeds weren't crazy long or anything.

I love these kind of stories, BUT there's like 2 problems with this game, that I've encountered. Yesterday, after I finish each chapter I have to close out of the game & restart it again to be able to play the next chapter. Today, i click on the app & once it gets to the black screen with OXENFREE on the bottom right corner...nothing happens. it just stays on that screen the whole time. I can't even play the game anymore 😞😩.
