Part homage, part sequel/reboot, Operation Wolf Returns: First Mission is a return to what we loved about the arcade games, but now in VR for a new layer of immersion. While it’s relatively short, it’s a lot of fun and serves perfectly to introduce new players to the medium.

Operation Wolf Returns no es la puesta al día de la fórmula clásica que muchos esperábamos, y entre que es un juego corto y resulta bastante genérico como juego de acción en realidad virtual, no aprovecha la oportunidad para traer de vuelta una recordada licencia de los años 80.

Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.

Oxenfree II: Lost Signals spends a little too much time washed out in white noise to truly deliver on its promise, but when tuned just right it sounds like little else. A coming-of-age story for people who should have already come of age is a beautiful and poignant launching pad, and despite getting bogged down in hard rules and lore, Night School Studios still display a grasp on horror aesthetics and storytelling worth the price of admission. The signal is a little fuzzy, but this is a game still worth listening out for.

Oxenfree II: The Lost Signal nous questionne, nous perturbe, et propose une introspection complète sur notre vie au travers du parcours des personnages. Ils sont perdus dans leur vie. La suite d’Oxenfree arrive à convaincre autant que le premier. Un jeu narratif qui, avec tout un univers paranormal, arrive à créer cet attachement afin de tout nous balancer ensuite à la face. Et si les thématiques abordées ne fonctionnent pas sur vous, il reste sur la première couche un excellent récit fantastique aux allures lynchéenes qui nous feront douter de la réalité.

While Oxenfree II: Lost Signals doesn’t hit the same heights as the original game, it still delivers another enjoyable adventure, once again serving up another unique ghost story that uses haunted technology to great effect, which succeeds thanks to terrific dialogue and well-crafted characters. Camena may be quite similar to Edwards Island in a lot of ways, but it still plays hosts to a nicely spooky trip more than worth taking, especially for fans of the first title.

This slightly spooky sequel continues its tale of real people in strange situations, picking up the story and characters of Oxenfree and retaining its style and puzzle-adjacent gameplay.

Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is a fairly safe sequel that allows its narrative and new cast of characters to do the heavy lifting. Through constant chit-chat between Riley and Jacob, gameplay remains enjoyable enough to keep you engaged, allowing the story to always be at the forefront of your mind. A few frustrating puzzles and frequent load screens aside, Night School Studio has put together a worthy follow-up that fans and newcomers can equally enjoy.

Oxenfree II: Lost Signals is an excellent sequel that takes the story in a significantly different direction without losing what made the original such an essential piece of storytelling. The sharper focus on fewer characters makes for a much better-paced experience without the need to juggle multiple relationships. Pacing issues do crop up if you happen to take a wrong turn but, in spite of that, Oxenfree II still provides an intriguing, suspenseful mystery that fans and newcomers will both adore. Be sure to play the original first, though.

Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals è un ottimo sequel di quello che fu il titolo del 2016, in grado di offrire un'altra storia ai palati desiderosi di avvinghiarsi a un'avventura dinamica. Con un po' meno tinte horror e un passaggio allo psichedelico e al sovrannaturale, con l'avvento di Netflix sembrerà essere finiti quasi in un ambiente alla Stranger Things, ma senza Demogorgone. Con degli ottimi dialoghi e un'atmosfera che funziona per quella che è la storia da raccontare, ci siamo trovati dinanzi a poco più di 5 ore di divertimento, godendoci quella che potrebbe essere quasi una serie di 6 puntate su un'avventura surreale con una protagonista che conferma la struttura già apprezzata 7 anni fa. Nessuna rivoluzione, ma solo una conferma: questo potrebbe essere visto come un aspetto negativo, ma un motivo in più per tornare dove si è stati bene, soprattutto in estate.

Fans of the original Oxenfree should largely enjoy the bigger, longer sequel, with the caveat that more isn’t always better. I preferred the older, more mature characters this time around, and once again the writing and production values are excellent for the most part. A (very little) bit of expanded gameplay is welcome, while the complexity of weaving two stories together ends up feeling too convoluted for its own good. While you could easily skip the first game if you wish, you’d probably get more out of this one if you don’t. And since the tighter, leaner original is marginally better than the sequel, there’s really no reason not to start there anyway. The novelty is missing the second time around, but if you’re all about story, exploration and characters, you’ll likely find that both Oxenfree and Lost Signals are worth picking up.
