The latest addition to Netflix’s portfolio of mobile games is the critically acclaimed supernatural-thriller Oxenfree. Although this is the first game ever released by studio Night School Studio, it’s one of the best narrative-driven adventure games on multiple platforms.
If you haven’t played Oxenfree when it came out back in 2016, we can’t recommend this enough. The Netflix Edition of Oxenfree is already available for download for Android and iOS via Netflix, and if you’re a subscriber, then you get it for free. Unlike the “regular” version of the game, the Netflix Edition adds localization support, which is exclusively available in this release on the streaming service. Currently, the game’s subtitles are available in over 30 languages including: Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Spanish (Latam), Spanish (Spain), Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
As far as the game goes, Oxenfree tells the coming of age story Alex, a rebellious teenager who brings here stepbrother to an overnight party on Edwards Island, an abandoned military island. Things start going sideways when the group of friends open a ghostly rift by mistake.
