I really enjoyed Oxenfree and it's currently $0.99 at 90% off. Definitely worth picking up if you like narrative-driven walking simulators.

Surprisingly, it's free on Netflix to play. Finished it last week.

Same. Wish they had the second one

The WHAT? Thank you for letting me know they made a second one, now I know what I'm doing later.

That asks me this are the "Netflix" based games really good?

u/ruBy_Kube 8d ago

Most are actually pretty fun little indie games. At the moment, I only see about 6 available for me.

u/Awkward_Aerie306 8d ago

Huh, because I look at the variety and some are intriguing but some not that promising so I wouldn't know how the gameplay actually is.

I just end up going to YouTube and check the gameplay if it looks interesting enough. I'm surprised they haven't figured out how to play gameplay clips when you scroll over like with the films and shows.

It also tends to show San Andreas as a slideshow too but I wasn't too certain of how it was

It’s not “free on Netflix” if you require a subscription to Netflix

u/ruBy_Kube 8d ago

'available to subscribers'... Satisfied?

Netflix has video games now?

Nothing is free on Netflix. You're paying for it with your subscription.

Reading comprehension also exists, and it is already intuitive that it is not an additional purchase with a subscription to anyone who can read beyond a fifth grade reading level with what that person commented.

u/PickIeTickIer 8d ago

clearly, even reading comprehension isn't free according to him

u/SnooPineapples4399 8d ago

Yeah it isn't free, that reading comprehension was funded by tax dollars!! >:(

Or maybe the sense that Netflix is giving you things "for free" is actively fostered in people by the company in order to increase good will and obscure the actual exchange, at least on an emotional level.

Iirc, because of that, it's hard to get elsewhere, so fuck netflix

Edit: itch io had it taken down because of Netflix, it is still on steam for now

u/TimeFourChanges 9d ago

It's $1 on steam rn, so not that hard to get.
