76: Oxenfree - The Short Game

What this episode covers

Oxenfree is the first game from Night School Studio, a team with roots at Telltale and Disney. Dialogue takes center stage here, as a bunch of teenagers set off to spend the night on an island that is home to an old military outpost, in a story with equal measures of supernatural horror and teen adventure nostalgia. Before the spoiler break we discuss the game’s excellent dialogue and painterly art style. After the spoiler break (about 30 minutes in) we discuss the the strange events of the game and the story’s climax.
